How are AMPS and D-AMPS different from GSM and CDMA?

By /

AMPS and D-AMPS are cellular technologies that existed during the first and second generations of mobile networks. While second-generation (2G) cellular technologies still exist today, both AMPS and D-AMPS are now obsolete and have been replaced by GSM and CDMA mobile networks. AMPS was a first-generation (1G) cellular technology, and D-AMPS was a second-generation (2G)
