Of all the tremendous advances in data communications and telecommunica- tions, perhaps the most revolutionary is the development of cellular networks. Cellular technology is the foundation of mobile wireless communications and supports users in locations that are not easily served by wired networks. Cellular technology is the underlying technology for mobile telephones, personal communications systems, wireless Internet and wireless Web appli- cations, and much more. We begin this chapter with a look at the basic principles used in all cellular networks. Then we look at specific cellular technologies and stan- dards, which are conveniently grouped into four generations. Finally, we examine LTE-Advanced, which is the standard for the fourth generation, in more detail. 10.1 PRINCIPLES OF CELLULAR NETWORKS Cellular radio is a technique that was developed to increase the capacity available for mobile radio telephone service. Prior to the introduction of cellular radio, mobile radio telephone service was only provided by a high-power transmitter/ receiver.

The design of network model can change the transmission and the withdrawal of the link after the network structure from the root, solve the deficiency of the transmission is completed. It solves the problem of original network system, and meet the new demand of the high-quality real-time media communication caused by the future network. TCP/IP as the core network technology is integration of three networks (communication network, successful, it has shortcomings but is a reasonable existence, broadcasting network and Internet) from the underlying will continue to play a role. Considering the compatibility with structure of the network, realizes the long-distance and the original network, the new network model needs to be large-traffic data transmission of the future network, and lays compatible with the existing TCP/IP four-layer model, at the a solid foundation for the digital currency and virtual same time; it can provide a better technical system to currency of the Internet.
