The 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) is a collaboration between various telecommunications organizations aimed at developing and maintaining global standards for mobile communication systems. Established in 1998, it focuses on creating specifications for technologies such as GSM, UMTS, and LTE, which are essential for mobile networks. The project brings together industry stakeholders, including network operators, equipment manufacturers, and software developers, to ensure interoperability and efficiency in mobile services. By standardizing protocols and technologies, 3GPP helps facilitate advancements in mobile communication, enabling faster data transfer and improved connectivity for users worldwide.
