4G wireless: One View
2.Need for 4G
Firstly 3G’s maximum data transfer rate of 384 Kbps to
2mbps is much slower than 20 to 100 Mbps of 4G.
With its use of existing technologies and communication
standards, 4G present a comparably inexpensive standard.
4G will utilize most of the existing wireless communication
infrastructure.
3.Specifications of 4G
4G can provide a 10 times increase in data transfer over 3G.
This speed can be achieved through Orthogonal Frequency
Division Multiplexing (OFDM).
OFDM can not only transfer data at speed of more than 100 Mbps, but
it can also eliminate interference that impairs high speed signals.
4.The potential applications of 4G
4G will provide for a vast number of presently
non-existent applications for mobile devices.
Switching Design Basis Circuit and Packet All digital with packetized voice
Both the end user and the service provider do not want to be
bothered with the peculiarities of these networks.
This asks for a service centric approach where the end user,
the service provider and network operator are loosely coupled
through a Service Support role.

•Handoff
•Location Coordination
•Resource coordination to add new users
•Support for quality of service
•Wireless securities and authentication
•Network failure and backup

Orthogonal Frequency Division
Multiplexing
Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) provides clear
advantages for physical layer performance, but also a framework for
improving layer 2 performance by proposing an additional degree of free-
domain.
In ODFM, it is possible to exploit the time domain, the space domain, the
frequency domain and even the code domain to optimize radio channel
usage.
It ensures very robust transmission in multi-path environments with reduced
receiver complexity.
OFDM also provides a frequency diversity gain, improving the physical layer
performance .
It is also compatible with other enhancement Technologies, such as smart
antennas and MIMO.
OFDM modulation can also be employed as a multiple access technology
(Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access; OFDMA).
In this case, each OFDM symbol can transmit information to/from several
users using a different set of sub carriers (sub channels).
OFDM MODULATION SCHEME
Smart Antennas
Switched Beam Antennas
Adaptive Array Antennas
Smart antennas can :
Optimize available power
Increase base station range
and coverage
Reuse available spectrum
Increase bandwidth
Lengthen battery life of
wireless devices
Millimeter Wireless
In a 4G system, millimeter
wireless would constitute only one
of several frequency bands, with
the 5GHz band most likely
dominant.
Scheduling among Users
This is the job of the packet layer, which will split the data into small
“packets.”
Packet Layer
The packet layer is a layer of abstraction that
separates the data being transmitted from the way
that it is being transmitted.
*More Flexible
*More Reliable
ADVANTAGES OF 4G
Support for interactive multimedia, voice, streaming video, Internet, and other
broadband services.
