 INTRODUCTION

 4G (also known as Beyond 3G), an abbreviation for Fourth-

Generation, is a term used to describe the next complete evolution
in wireless communications.
 It will be able to provide a comprehensive IP solution where
voice, data and streamed multimedia .
 It can be given to users on an "Anytime, Anywhere" basis, and at
higher data rates than previous generations.
 As the second generation was a total replacement of the first
generation networks and handsets.
 the third generation was a total replacement of second generation
networks and handsets.
 The fourth generation cannot be an incremental evolution of
current 3G technologies, but rather the total replacement of the
current 3G networks .

 There is no formal definition for what 4G is; however, there

are certain objectives that are projected for 4G .

 These objectives include: that 4G will be a fully IP-based

integrated system. 4G will be capable of providing between
100 Mbit/s and 1 Gbit/s speeds both indoors and outdoors,
with premium quality and high security.

 Fourth Generation (4G) Wireless Networks are being

developed to further enhance the mobile user experiences
through higher speed radio access and increased quality of
service (QoS) .
 HISTORY OF 4G WIRELESS

Wireless System Evolution:

 First generation: Almost all of the systems from this

generation were analog systems where voice was considered
to be the main traffic.

 Second generation: All the standards belonging to this

generation are commercial centric and they are digital in form.
Around 60% of the current market is dominated by European
standards.
 Third generation: To meet the growing demands in network
capacity, rates required for high speed data transfer and multimedia
applications, 3G standards started evolving .

 The systems in this standard are essentially a linear enhancement of

2G systems .

 Currently, transition is happening from 2G to 3G systems. As a part

of this transition, numerous technologies are being standardized.

• 2.75G:
– EDGE/EGPRS
– CDMA2000 (1xRTT)
• 3G:
– UMTS (W-CDMA)
– CDMA2000 (1xEV-DO/IS-856)
– WiMax
• 3.5G:
– UMTS (HSDPA)
– UMTS (HSUPA)
– CDMA2000 (EV-DO Rev.A)
• 3.75G
– UMTS (HSPA+)
– CDMA2000 (EV-DO Rev.B/3xRTT)
• 4G:
– Flash-OFDM
– 3GPP LTE

 Fourth generation: According to the 4G working groups, the

infrastructure and the terminals of 4G will have almost all the
standards from 2G to 4G implemented .
 Emerging mobile applications including Multimedia
Messaging Service (MMS), Wireless Broadband Access
(WBA), HDTV data, mobile TV, Digital Video Broadcasting
(DVB), voice over IP, sensory data, are demanding new
mechanisms that must be met.

 The following objectives have been suggested by the 4G

wireless communication standards and the 4G working
group”:

• Higher Spectral Efficiency

• Higher Mobility at Higher Data Rates
• Enhancement in Delay Budgets
• Higher Network Capacity
 FEATURES OF 4G WIRELESS SYSTEMS

  The following are some possible features of the 4G systems :

1. Support interactive multimedia, voice, video, wireless internet and

other broadband services.

2. High speed, high capacity and low cost per bit.

3. Global mobility, service portability, scalable mobile networks.

4. Seamless switching, variety of services based on Quality of

Service (QoS) requirements
 OVERVIEW OF 4G

 In Korea, the development of 4G mobile system technologies is very

actively carried on.

 The activities of 4G development in Korea will be introduced. In the

first part, the current status of preparing the commercial WiBro
service will be presented.

 The WiBro Service (Portable Internet Service for 2.3GHz), as the low
mobility data service, has been defined as a pre-4G service and the
development of the system.

 The 4G system will support 100Mbps data rate for high mobility and
1Gbps for low mobility.
.
 The future mobile device will therefore be first and foremost a
computer, then an open wireless architecture (OWA) low-power
terminal.

 This OWA technology offers an optimal solution to open up the

wireless platform for complete openness , simplicity .

 OWA supports service-oriented architecture and infrastructure that is

necessary for future mobile phone development.

 the next generation mobile communication technology (called 4th

generation mobile, or 4G Mobile), the future trend is same.
 Evolution from 3G to 4G and beyond(5G)

 Nowadays, network technology plays a significant role in the science

and business area.
 Scientists innovate and develop some new technologies to fit
businesses’ needs and to satisfy people’s demands.
 Thus, the hot topics of the network technology that are going to be
illustrated in this paper are 3G and 4G technologies and beyond (5G).
 “4G is a research item for next-generation wide-area cellular radio,
where you have 1G, 2G, 3G and then 4G [and 5G] is the clear. From
these points of view, we can clearly understand that 4G does not
really exist yet.
 Generally speaking, 4G is an evolution not only to move beyond the
limitations and problems of 3G, but also to enhance the quality of
services, to increase the bandwidth and to reduce the cost of the
resource.

 The differences between 3G and 4G, 4G working principle, and 5G

(completed wireless communication with almost no limitation;
somehow people called it REAL wireless world).

 The main distinguishing factors between 3G and 4G will be data

ratesservices, transmission ways, access technology to the Internet.

 In the other words, 4G will bring us almost perfect real world wireless
or called “WWWW: World Wide Wireless Web
 How 4G works (working principle):
In the 4G wireless networks, each node will be assigned a 4G-IP
address (based on IPv6), which will be formed by a permanent
“home‿ IP address
 When a device (computer) in the Internet wants to communicate with
another device (cell phone) in the wireless network.
 the computer will send a packet to the 4G-IP address of the cell
phone targeting on its home address.
 Then a directory server on the cell phone’s home network will
forward this packet to the cell phone’s care-of address through a
tunnel, mobile IP; moreover.
 the directory server will also inform the computer that the cell
phone’s care-of address (real location), so next packets can be sent to
the cell phone directly .
WIRELESS LAN
 A wireless LAN or WLAN or wireless local area network is the
linking of two or more computers or devices using spread-spectrum or
OFDM modulation technology based to enable communication
between devices in a limited area.
 This gives users the mobility to move around within a broad coverage
area and still be connected to the network .
 The popularity of wireless LANs is a testament primarily to their
convenience, cost efficiency, and ease of integration with other
networks and network components .
 Benefits of WAN are convenience, mobility, deployment,
productivity, cost.
 Disadvantages of WAN are security, range, speed and reliability.
 TYPES OF WIRELESS LAN

 Three types of LANs are

• peer-to-peer wireless LAN
• Bridge wireless LAN
• Roaming wireless LAN

 Roaming are of 2 types

• Internal Roaming
• External Roaming
 MERITS OF 4G WIRELESS NETWORKS

• Traffic Management
• Buffer Management
• Mobility Management
 Traffic management (TM) mechanisms such as Call Admission
Control (CAC), Scheduling.
 Buffer Management (BM) play a key role in the design of multi-
service wireless network by providing service differentiation from
diverse applications and assigning .
 Mobility management is the integration and interworking of existing
wireless systems are important factors to obtain seamless roaming and
services in next generation or 4G wireless networks
 DEMERITS OF 4G WIRELESS NETWORKS

• DNP (Distributed Network Problem)

• HWNS (Heterogeneous wireless networks)
• Context Aware Adaptability
 Distributed NP (DNP) problems are ones supplied with probability
distributions of instances.
 In the next generation of heterogeneous wireless networks (HWNs), a
large number of different radio access technologies (RATs) will be
integrated into a common network
 APPLICATIONS OF 4G WIRELESS NETWORKS

• Easy to add stations as there are no cables required .

• Signals can be sent through doors and walls so the stations can be
mobile .

• There is less need for technical support in setting up due to their

simple nature.

• There are no cables to trip over so there are less health and safety
issues to consider.

• It has high data rate and higher bandwidth.

like and what services it will offer to people. However, we can
get the general idea about 4G from academic research.

 4G is the evolution based on 3G’s limitation and it will fulfill

the idea of WWWW, World Wide Wireless Web, offering more
