4G Definition
4G is not one defined technology or standard,
but rather a collection of technologies at creating
fully packet-switched networks optimized for
data.

4G Networks are projected to provide speed of

100Mbps while moving and 1Gbps while
stationary.
What is 4G?
Fourth Generation Technology
Faster and more reliable
100 Mb/s
Lower cost than previous generations
Multi-standard wireless system
Bluetooth, Wired, Wireless
Ad Hoc Networking
IPv6 Core
OFDM used instead of CDMA
Potentially IEEE standard 802.11n
Most information is proprietary
Communication Architecture
Personal Layer Gateway:
devices that connect to upper layers; cell phone, fax,
voice, data modem, MP3 players, PDAs

Info-Sensor layer:
environmental sensors

Fiber-optic wire layer:

high speed subterranean labyrinth of fiber optic cables
and repeaters
Ad-Hoc Networks
Spontaneous self
organization of networks of
devices

Not necessarily connected

to internet

4G will create hybrid

wireless networks using Ad
Hoc networks

Form of mesh networking

Very reliable
Enhance Mobile Gaming

Experience enhance wireless capabilities that

deliver mobile gaming interaction with less
than five seconds

Play online multi player games while traveling

at high speeds or sitting outside
Broadband Access In Remote
Areas

4G will provide a wireless alternative for

broadband access

It will provide first opportunity for broadband

access in remote locations without an
infrastructure to support cable or DSL
access.
LTE (Long-Term Evolution)
Specification managed by 3GPP organization
3rd Generation Partnership Project
Scope to create global 3G spec based on GSM
architecture
UMTS (Universal Mobile Telephone System)
HSPDA (High Speed Download Packet Access)
HSPUA (Upload Access)
HSPA+ Rel 7, enhancements in Rel 8-10
New LTE specification in Release 8, 4G Scope
4G LTE
An acronym for Long Term Evolution, LTE is a 4G
wireless communications standard developed by the 3rd
Generation Partnership Project (3GPP).
designed to provide up to 10x the speeds of 3G
networks for mobile devices such as smartphones,
tablets, netbooks, notebooks & wireless hotspots.
4G LTE is one of several competing 4G standards along
with Ultra Mobile Broadband (UMB) & WiMax (IEEE
802.16).
4G LTE Advance
LTE Advanced is a mobile communication
standard and a major enhancement of the Long
Term Evolution (LTE) standard. It was formally
submitted as a candidate 4G system toITU-T in
late 2009 as meeting the requirements of
the IMT-Advanced standard, and was
standardized by the 3rd Generation Partnership
Project (3GPP) in March 2011 as 3GPP Release
10
Continued
The LTE format was first proposed by NTT
DoCoMo of Japan and has been adopted as the
international standard.
The first commercial services were launched
in Sweden and Norway in December 2009 followed by
the United States and Japan in 2010.
The work by 3GPP to define a 4G candidate radio
interface technology started in Release 9 with the study
phase for LTE-Advanced. Being described as
a 3.9G (beyond 3G but pre-4G).
