What is a Generic Access Network?
The Generic Access Network is the general name for the overall wireless communications protocols that allow mobile devices to connect and interact with other types of communication devices. It is the current structure of the Generic Access Network that makes it possible for persons using cell phones to place and receive telephone calls from persons using land lines. At present, the network makes connections with not only local area networks (LAN) but also wide area networks (WAN). In recent years, the functionality of the Generic Access Network has been enhanced to include connection options beyond audio connectivity. Today, the network can also support data and multimedia transmissions as well. This has been helpful for many people who make extensive use of their handheld devices during the working day. Thanks to these advances with a Generic Access Network, it is now possible to attend and interact on a web conference using a handheld device, with the same degree of ease as attending
