INDEX

ACKNOWLEDGMENT
The successful completion of any project requires guidance and help from a number of people. I was fortunate to receive all the support from my MENTOR.I, therefore take this opportunity to express my profound sense of gratitude to all those who extended their whole hearted help and support to me in carrying out the project work. I am thankful to Dr. B.P. Sharma (Group Director,FMS) for allowing me to undertake the project and making available all the facilities for the successful completion of the study besides guiding me to pursue the study on proper line. I am deeply indebted to Dr. Archana Mam for providing me full support in completion of my project. Without the support and guidance of the above people the project would not have been accomplished effectively and successfully.

A BRIEF VIEW
Generation refers change in nature of Service compatible transmission technology and new frequency bands. 1G systems used analog frequency modulation. 2G systems use digital communication techniques with TDM, FDM, and CDMA. 3G systems offer higher data rates and voice and paging services to provide interactive multimedia including teleconferencing and internet access. 4G aims to provide IP telephony, ultrabroadband Internet access, gaming services.

WHAT IS 4G???

4G refers to the fourth generation of cellular wireless standards 4G is a packet switched wireless system with wide area coverage and high throughput. 4G wireless uses OFDM and millimeter wireless that enables data rate of 20 mbps and frequency band of 2-8 GHz. 4G is going to be a packed based network. 4G provide an end-to-end IP solution where voice and data is going to be served to users.

3G Vs 4G
The following table shows comparisons between 3G and possible 4G systems.

Frequency Band Bandwidth Data Rate Access

3G 1.8 To 2.5 GHz 5-20 MHz UPTO 2 MBPS Wideband CDMA Circuit/Packet 200 kmph

4G 2-8 GHz 5-20 MHz UPTO 20 MBPS Multi carrier CDMA or OFDM(TDMA) Packet 200kmph

Switching Mobile Top Speed

OBJETIVES OF 4G
4G being developed to accommodate QOS rate requirements set by further development of existing 3G applications. Flexible channel bandwidth between 5 and 20MHz, optionally up to 40MHz. Data rate of at list 100Mb/s between any two points in the world. Increase system spectral efficiency of up to 3bit/s/Hz/cell in the downlink and 2.25bit/s/Hz/cell for indoor usage.

4G WIRELESS STANDARD
WiMAX formed to provide conformance and interoperability of the IEEE 802.16 standard. It aims to provide wireless data over long distance from point-to-point link to cellular mobile type access. WiBRO a part of IEEE 802.16e in process to provide collaborative and generic mobile WiMAX. 3GPP LTE a project aims to improve the mobile phone standard to cope with future requirements. 3GPP 2 UMB a project to improve the CDMA2000 mobile phone standard for next generation applications.

IPv6 SUPPORT

Unlike 3G, based on two parallel infrastructure circuit switched and packet switched network nodes, 4G will be based on packet switching only. This will require low-latency data transmission. IPv6 support large number of wireless enabled devices. By increasing the number of IP addresses, IPv6 removes the need for NAT (Network Address Translation).

Mobility & Information Speed

BENEFITS OF 4G

High speed, high capacity, and low cost per bit. Support interactive multimedia, voice, streaming video, Internet, and other broadband services. Global access, service portability, and scalable mobile services. Better scheduling and call admission control techniques. Smooth handoff across heterogeneous networks.

 High quality of service for next generation multimedia support (real time audio, high speed data, HDTV video content, mobile TV, etc.) Interoperability with existing wireless standards. In addition to improvements in the multiplexing systems, improved modulation techniques are being used. Whereas earlier standards largely used Phase-shift keying, more efficient systems such as QAM are being proposed for use with the 3GPP Long Term Evolution standards.

4G HARDWARE ARCHITECTURE

Regent Technology is assisting potential customers on 4G design and implementation. ADI DSP's are particularly suitable to run 4G engines. Initial prototyping suggests that TigerSHARC can play the main role in 4G hardware architecture. Regent Technology is providing articles on DSP algorithms that will contribute towards successful 4G products.

Estimation of Global Wireless Subscriber Growth

CONCLUSION

Migration to 4G networks ensures convergence of networks, technologies, applications and services. 4G can serve as a flexible platform. Wireless carriers have an opportunity to shorten Investment return, improve operating efficiency and increase revenues. 4G - a promising Generation of wireless communication that will change peoples lives.
