WHAT IS 4G…
 4G is not established as a agreed set of standards.

 So its features are simply goals rather than the


requirements.

 Its main objective is to drastically increase the data


transfer speeds i.e. 100 mbps to 1 gbps.

 Another goal is to reduce blips in transmission when a


device switches from one network to another of different
area. 4
EVOLUTION OF DATA STANDARDS
Zero Generation Mobile
Systems (0G) (1970)
The radio telephone system preceded modern cellular
mobile telephony technology (1G).

The radio telephone system contained one central


antenna tower per region. The central antenna required
radio phones to have a powerful transmitter, capable of
transmitting up to 50 miles. The number of radio
telephones per region was limited by the number of
available channels.

Unlike closed radio systems, radio telephones were


connected to the public telephone network and were
typically mounted in cars, trucks, and briefcases.
EVOLUTION OF DATA STANDARDS
First Generation Cellular
Communication (1G)(1980)
The 1G cellular telephone system
divided cities into small cells. This
division allowed extensive frequency
reuse across a city, allowing millions to
use cell phones simultaneously.

1G cell phone technology encompassed


analog standards introduced in the 1980s
and continued until replaced by 2G
digital cell phones.
EVOLUTION OF DATA STANDARDS
Second Generation Cellular
Communication (2G) (1990)

2G digital technologies can be divided into two


standards:

TDMA (Time Division Multiple Access)


- GSM: Originally from Europe but used worldwide
- iDEN: Proprietary network used by Nextel in the US
- PDC: Used exclusively in Japan

CDMA (Code Division Multiple Access)


- IS-95: Commonly referred to as CDMA and used in the
Americas and parts of Asia
EVOLUTION OF DATA STANDARDS
Third Generation Cellular
Communication(3G)(2002)
3G networks provide the ability to
transfer voice data and non-voice data
(music downloads, emails and instant
messaging) over the same network
simultaneously.
3G networks deliver broadband capacity
and support greater numbers of voice and
data customers at lower incremental costs
than 2G.
Standards:
- W-CDMA: Wideband Code Division Multiple
Access

- EVDO: Evolution-Data Optimized


4G DEFINITION

Fourth Generation Cellular


Communication (4G)(2010)

4G is not one defined technology or


standard, but rather a collection of
technologies and protocols aimed at
creating fully packet-switched networks
optimized for data.

4G networks are projected to provide


speeds of 100 Mbps while moving and 1
Gbps while stationary.

4G POSSIBILITIES
Broadband Access in Remote Locations

4G networks will provide a wireless alternative for


broadband access to residential and business customers.

In addition, 4G will provide the first opportunity for


broadband access in remote locations without an
infrastructure to support cable or DSL access.
4G POSSIBILITIES

4G Virtual Presence

3G Use hologram-generating virtual reality


programs that provide an artificial
presence just about anywhere.

2G For example, decide if you want to


personally respond when someone rings

1G
your front door while you are away from
home.

4G POSSIBILITIES

4G  Enhanced Mobile Gaming

3G Experience enhanced wireless


capabilities that deliver mobile
2G gaming interaction with latency less
than five milliseconds.

1G Play online multiplayer games while


traveling at high speeds or sitting
0G outside.
WIMAX

 World Wide Interoperability for Microwave Access


 There are two main applications of WiMAX:

1) Fixed WiMAX (IEEE 802.16-2004) - Fixed WiMAX applications


are point-to-multipoint enabling the delivery of last mile wireless
broadband access as an alternative to cable and DSL for homes and
businesses.

2) Mobile WiMAX (IEEE 802.16e-2005) - Mobile WiMAX offers


the full mobility of cellular networks at true broadband speeds.

WIMAX ADOPTION
Fixed WiMAX Adoption

Fixed WiMAX is currently available however the adoption rate is


impacted by the high cost of equipment in comparison to cable or
DSL.

Fixed WiMAX provides greater benefits for developing countries


that do not already have physical infrastructure to support wired
broadband access.

Mobile WiMAX Adoption

Mobile WiMAX equipment will arrive to carriers toward the end of


2010. However, mobile equipment testing typically takes between
12 to 18 months before the equipment is introduced to the
consumer market.
WIMAX VS. WI-FI
 WiMAX / Wi-Fi Comparison
 WiMAX and Wi-Fi are somewhat independent, addressing slightly
different needs.

WiMAX uses private, licensed spectrum and provides Wi-Fi-like service


with guaranteed performance to larger public areas, similar in coverage to
cellular networks today.

Wi-Fi uses shared spectrum and operates at short distances, making it


ideal for low-cost, private networks (where usage of the network is
constrained to an office building or campus) or free public systems
(where service guarantees are not required).

Potential 4G Peripherals

Smaller footprint peripherals have a greater potential


to support multiple devices.

Closing Thoughts

Closing Thoughts
The lack of clarity and overuse of the term 4G could prove its
biggest opportunity, or could spell its premature demise.

As carriers begin to rollout 3G the term 4G may be rendered


meaningless by lack of definition.
However, the rollout of mobile broadband will have a profound
impact on the way we work and live.
