(HSCSD)
The radio interface is the same as that of the current GSM system
except that multiple, independent time slots can be utilized to
provide high speed link as previously described.
The radio link protocol (RLP) has been enhanced in HSCSD to
support multi-link (time slot) operation. The protocol may or may not
recover the frame errors between TAF and IWF.
Apart from the fact that the full allocated bandwidth of the
connection is available to the HSCSD user, HSCSD also has an
advantage in GSM systems in terms of lower average radio interface
latency than GPRS. This is because the user of an HSCSD
connection does not have to wait for permission from the network to
send a packet
Conclusion
Simple implementation relative to GPRS
Minimal impact on infrastructure
Quick to deploy relative to GPRS
Inefficient for moving bursty data
User data rates ultimately less than GPRS
