INTRODUCTION TO 4G:

4G is the successor of the 3G and 2G families. The Fourth Generation communication systems is the latest technology that deals with communication and networking systems.

The 4G technology is giving solutions to the problems faced by the 3G systems.

Cellular service providers are slowly beginning to deploy thirdgeneration (3G) cellular services. As access technology increases, voice, video, multimedia, and broadband data services are becoming integrated into the same network To achieve the goals of true broadband cellular service, the systems have to make the leap to a fourth-generation (4G) network.

What is fourth generation (4G) mobile systems?

Third-generation (3G) mobile networks face a new rival: so-called 4G .

Fourth generation mobile communications systems that are characterized by high-speed data rates at 20 to 100 Mbps, suitable for high-resolution movies and television, virtual . Initial deployments are anticipated in 2006-2010.

Architecture:

TECHNOLOGIES USED TO ACHIEVE 4G: OFDM MIMO TURBO PRINCIPLE WIFI ,WIMAX AND 3G IPV6

4G: Anytime, Anywhere Connection

Also known as Mobile Broadband everywhere

4G is described as MAGIC

Mobile Multimedia Communication Anywhere, Anytime with Anyone Global Mobility Support Integrated Wireless Solution Customized Personal Service

According to 4G Mobile Forum, by 2008 over $400 billion would be invested in 4G mobile projects. In India, communication Minister Mr. Dayanidhi Maran, has announced a national centre of excellence to work in 4G arena.

4G: Data rate Facts

Transmission at 20 Mbps 2000 times faster than mobile data rates 10 times faster than top transmission rates planned In final build out of 3G broadband mobile 10-20 times faster than standard ADSL services. OBJEIVES OF 4G -: MMS (Multimedia Messaging Service) ,Wireless Broadband Service , Mobile TV 2. Data Rate of 100 Mbps for mobile and 1 Gaps while stationary , Video Chat 4. Seamless Connectivity and Global Roaming across multiple networks.

4G Realities
A

recent study by Herschel Shosteck Associates noted that operators that pay large amounts for spectrum will have to charge end users so much that adoption of 3G will be slow.
Another

study by Strategy Analytics agreed, predicting that, while wireless data revenues will soar, 3G networks will account for less than a quarter of that revenue by 2010. So-called 3G killer apps such as multimedia won't succeed, the second study said.
Pent-up

demand: Now there's the rub. Even NTT DoCoMo doesn't think there's much pent-up demand among consumers for 3G multimedia services, so it will target its initial 3G offering at business -- and price it accordingly.
