IS95based

IS95based refers to systems and technologies that utilize the IS-95 standard. IS-95, also known as cdmaOne, is a second-generation (2G) digital cellular radio transmission technology. It was developed by Qualcomm and standardized by the Telecommunications Industry Association (TIA). IS-95 was a significant advancement in mobile communication, introducing code division multiple access (CDMA) technology to the commercial marketplace. This contrasted with the time division multiple access (TDMA) and frequency division multiple access (FDMA) used in earlier cellular systems.

IS-95based systems allowed for more efficient use of radio spectrum and offered improved voice quality and capacity compared to previous generations. The "based" in IS95based implies that a particular technology, device, or network architecture operates according to the principles and specifications defined by the IS-95 standard. This could include mobile phones designed for IS-95 networks, base stations implementing IS-95 protocols, or network infrastructure that supports IS-95 operation. While IS-95 was foundational for CDMA technology, it has largely been superseded by later generations like 3G (UMTS/cdma2000) and 4G (LTE). However, understanding IS-95based systems is crucial for comprehending the evolution of mobile telecommunications and the development of modern wireless standards.
