3G vs. Wifi: Presented By:-DEEPAK GUPTA 0911HDSSD104
WIFI
Introduction
3G refers to the collection of third generation cellular technologies that are designed to allow mobile cellular operators to offer integrated data and voice services over cellular networks.
WIFI refers to the 802.11b wireless Ethernet standard that was designed to support wireless LANs . Two technology reflect fundamentally The Goal of Discussion of these Two technology
3G Technology
1G provided only analog voice services . AMPS - Advanced Mobile Phone Service Digitization of control signals and voice signal were developed during the second generation which is 2G.
PREDECESSORS
3G
3G is a Technology for Mobile service providers
3G use licensed spectrum to provide mobile telephone coverage Each Mobile base Station support users up to several kms Wireless Mobile Services has been Telephony 3G is the third generation of wireless technologies. 3G is mostly used with mobile phones and handsets.

Implementation
The first pre-commercial 3G network was launched by NTT DoCoMo in Japan branded FOMA, in May of 2001 on a pre-release of W-CDMA technology. The first commercial launch of 3G was also by NTT DoCoMo in Japan on October 1, 2001. The second network of 3G was launched by SK Telecom in South Korea on the CDMA2000 1xEV-DO technology.
Evolution of 3G
Cellular mobile telecommunications networks are being upgraded to use 3G technologies from 1999 to 2010. Japan was the first country to introduce 3G nationally, and in Japan the transition to 3G was largely completed in 2006. Korea then adopted 3G Networks and the transition was made as early as 2004.
Mobile Internet connectivity Mobile email Mobile Interview E-learning Multimedia services, such as digital photos taken by and shared via wireless handsets Wireless application downloading Video-on-demand and short-format Clipcast content Real-time multiplayer gaming
USE OF 3G
Higher call volumes and support for multimedia data applications, such as video and photography. Faster data transfer rates Free or cheap calls worldwide Worthwhile for users that need connectivity on the move
BENEFITS OF 3G
WiFi
WiFi is the popular name for the wireless Ethernet 802.11b standard for WLANS.
WiFi LANS operate using unlicensed spectrum 2.4GHZ band. Each base station can support connections only over a range of a hundred meters.
Wi-Fi Introduction
It stand for wireless fidelity. Wi-Fi is defined as freedom, it allows us to connect to the internet from our desk at home, in a hotel room or a conference room at work without wires.
WI-FI ARCHITECTURE
There are two different ways to configure a network: 1.)Ad-hoc network-Computers are brought
Stations: A station (STA) is a network node that is equipped with a wireless network device. Access point: It is a wireless LAN transceiver or base station that can connect one or many wireless devices simultaneously to the Internet. Ports: A port is a channel of a device that can support a single point-to-point connection.
Wireless Technologies
Wi-Fi Networks use Radio Technologies to transmit & receive data at high speed: IEEE 802.11b IEEE 802.11a IEEE 802.11g
IEEE 802.11b
Appear in late 1999. Operates at 2.4GHz radio spectrum. 11 Mbps (theoretical speed) - within 30 m Range. 4-6 Mbps (actual speed) 100 -150 feet range. Most popular, Least Expensive.
IEEE 802.11a
Introduced in 2001. Operates at 5 GHz (less popular). 54 Mbps (theoretical speed). 15-20 Mbps (Actual speed). 50-75 feet range. More expensive.
IEEE 802.11g
Introduced in 2003. 2.4 GHz radio frequencies. 54 Mbps Speed. 100-150 feet range. Combine the feature of both standards (a,b).
Wi-Fi Topology
Mesh Network Distributed gateway devices Self healing network Relatively easy to form.
Smart Antenna Arrays High powered & directional. Better obstruction penetration. Good for covering large open, or semi-open environments. Coverage from high points usually works best.
Wi-Fi Security
Authentication - assurance that a packet comes from where it claims. Confidentiality - protection from disclosure to unauthorized persons. Access control - keeping unauthorized users out. Integrity - ensuring that data is error-free.
Advantages of Wi-Fi
Its flexible. Ease of Installation. Its fast. Its cost-effective. Wi-fi is the future.
Disadvantages of Wi-Fi
Password and Security. Signal Strength Sensitivity. Effect of Climatic Conditions. Limited range.
Commercial WiFi C.W. services are available in places such as Internet cafes, Coffee houses and Airports around the world.
Free WiFi
Many Groups, Communities, Cities, Municipalities have set up free WiFi networks. Many Smaller Countries and Municipalities provide Free WiFi hotspots and residential WiFi internet access to everyone . Many Universities provide free WiFi internet access. McDonalds corporation offers WiFi access branded McInternet
Both are wireless Both are access Technology Both offer broadband data service
Conclusions
This article offers a qualitative comparison of two wireless technologies that could be viewed as simultaneously as substitute and/or complementary paths for involving to broadband wireless access. The two technologies are 3G, which is the preferred path for mobile providers, and WiFi , one of the many WLAN technologies
