When we look at the evolution of wireless communication systems, as in most systems, two major developments are most prominent: 1) addition of new features and 2) improvement of already existing capabilities. The first development arises from the fact that communication through a wireless medium makes life easier. Every development brings several new features and these new features contribute positively to this fact. These developments can be seen clearly in the evolution of cell phones. In the past, cell phones were used only for transmitting voice and short text-based messages. Currently, there are cell phones in which an operating system runs and several multimedia applications are available.
