PCS is a marketing term invented by cellular
carriers. Both 800 and 1900 Mhz are still "cellular." PCS originally meant Personal Communications Services which was a term used even with old analog via touch-tone before there ever existed 1900 Mhz "Cellular." The system could not operate with just one cell because if everyone was on the same site they would interefere with one another. More profound than that, but a cell-phone is still cellular whether on so-called "PCS" or 800 Mhz bands. |
