Detailed explanation-1: -Packet switching is used in the Internet and most local area networks. The Internet is implemented by the Internet Protocol Suite using a variety of link layer technologies. For example, Ethernet and Frame Relay are common. Newer mobile phone technologies (e.g., GSM, LTE) also use packet switching.
Detailed explanation-2: -Circuit switching was initially designed for voice transfer. In contrast, the discovery of packet switching technology was suitable in time for the internet. Therefore, packet switching is used to transfer data packets across the internet and most local area networks (LAN).
Detailed explanation-3: -There are two types of packet switching, connectionless (datagram switching) and connection-oriented (virtual circuit switching).
