iDEN
Integrated Digital Enhanced
Network also known as iDEN, is a mobile communications technology,
which provides its users the benefits of a trunked radio
and a cellular telephone. This technology is developed by
the mobile company “Motorola” and is sold by
the retailer Nextel which is the largest US retailer of
iDEN services.
iDEN is available not only
in US but in other countries as well through several carriers
including Nextel International. Data like text message and
picture message and voice communications are supported by
iDEN.

In order to provide high
data rates for packet data, Nextel started to develop a
2.5G technology called WiDEN.
