why is communication
important..?

Communication is the basis of our lives and we would in this day and age,
be handicapped without it. Everyday we are communicating with each
other in some way or another, be it by using words, actions or even
expressions in conveying a message. We humans depend not only on faceto-face communication but the kind that brings technology to the fore to
bridge that gap between people by mere seconds across vast distances.
We take a look briefly into what are the major types of communication,
along with their importance.

Communication as you can see, is an important factor that governs our

everyday lives. What is needed most is the effectiveness of how we
communicate, which is often misinterpreted. In order to pass a message
along in its entirety without jumbling up its core meaning, it is wise to
always review what is being sent, and think beforehand about what is right
to say when put into words. That is why, reviewing one's work diligently
and repeatedly is always stressed upon.

Beginning of the telephone era

The need of communication

devices for armies in both
world wars gave birth to the
research of smaller and
much more efficient
communication devices
Then around the early
1940s came the
predeccesor to the modern
telephone - The WALKIE
TALKIE
In the early stages of the
radio,the idea of a mobile
telephone unit was
considered a joke.

Mobile telephoning
It wasnt till after
the war, that the world
saw the first serious
solutions to mobile
telephoning.
In 1956 the world
first automatic mobile
telephoning system
The
ERICSSON MTA was
introduced

 In 1981 the MMT system

was launched in
Scandinavia.
It provided national
coverage in Sweden ,
Norway , Denmark and
Finland.
But in those days the
telephones were bulky and
stow away items mostly
used in transport.

The pocket mobile phone

It took more than a
decade for the mobile
phones to shrink in size
and weight under half a
kilo and then achieved
pocket success.
The introduction of GSM
and other similar
standards saw the
emergence of even
smaller and lighter
phones.

Evolution of the video phones

Ever since the first telephone,
the idea of a video phone was
on most of the telecom
inventors mind.
Now it isnt a dream
anymore. In 1999 ericsson
demonstrated the worlds first
MOBILE VIDEO CALL.
From 2001 3g systems
started to blaze new trail all
over the world

THE present communication

standards
With the growing pace of communication and globalization, sources
of data communication have been growing in all the sectors. Now a
days, one of the fast growing spot in the stream of communication is
the Wireless and Mobile Technology. The Mobile Phone Companies
whether GSM or CDMA, are providing lucrative services at affordable
prices to the consumers.
The mobile phone companies are doing lot of research in
enhancing their services to attract new customers. According to one
news report, India is one of the Worlds fastest growing mobile
phone markets. As per TRAI (Telecom Regulatory Authority of India)
figures as on April 6, 2011, there were 791.38 million mobile phone
subscribers in India. India is likely to become World's Number 1
Mobile Market by 2013 with more than a billion Mobile Users

The number of broadband connections in India has seen a continuous

growth since the beginning of 2006. As on Feb 2011, the total
number of broadband and Internet users in the country has reached
11.47 million, constituting 0.9% of the population.
Mobile and Wireless technology has become a fire wave of the
future to benefit every aspect of our life including business, personal,
education, medical, entertainment as well as global communication.
More than sixty percent of the worlds population has gone mobile
using stylish and excellent featured handsets, computers, laptops,
net books, palmtops, personal digital assistants, tablets, smart
phones with GPS devices and wireless terminals. These equipment
are delivered with WiFi, Bluetooth, 3G/4G services, virtual private
networks and other advanced communications technologies.
