Enhanced Data Rates for GSM Evolution (EDGE) is a radio based high-speed mobile data standard which acts as an enhancement for general packet tadio service (GPRS) networks. EDGE (also known as EGPRS) is a superset to GPRS and can function on any network with GPRS deployed on it, provided the carrier implements the necessary upgrades.

La technologie EDGE (débits binaires améliorés pour les GSM de demain) vise à permettre aux opérateurs AMRT [accès multiple par répartition dans le temps], GMSC [centre de commutation pour les services mobiles de transit] et GPRS [service général de paquets radio] de fournir des services de la prochaine génération. Elle utilise les même canaux radioélectriques et intervalles de temps que les systèmes GSM [système mondial de communications mobiles] et GPRS [service général de paquets radio] et n'a donc pas besoin de bandes de fréquences additionnelles.
