  • Migration to 3G Technology Standards: Europe, Japan, South Korea, and the U.S. by Richard Nunno, International Bureau, FCC
    Migration to 3G Technology Standards: Europe, Japan, South Korea, and the U.S. By Richard Nunno, International Bureau, FCC Revised July 21, 2003 For over a decade, the International Telecommunication Union (ITU) has been supporting the international effort to develop an advanced third-generation (3G) mobile telecommunications service that has a higher bandwidth than previous and existing mobile services and that subscribers can seamlessly use across international borders (known as global roaming). To that end, the ITU has identified spectrum and developed technical standards for International Mobile Telecommunications 2000 (IMT-2000), the official name for 3G services. The ITU’s World Administrative Radiocommunication Conference (WARC) in 1992 and World Radiocommunication Conference (WRC) in 2000 identified several bands of spectrum that could be used for 3G services. The mobile telecommunications industry has started delivering 3G services that provide broadband applications including voice, data, and video. As defined by the ITU, 3G signal transmission rates must be able to reach 2 megabits per second (Mbps) or higher for indoor (low mobility) wireless applications (more than 35 times faster than today’s 56 kilobits per second (kbps) dial-up PC modems). 3G rates may be slower (384 kbps) for pedestrian traffic, and 144 kbps for high mobility (vehicular) traffic.1 How each country is implementing 3G systems depends on a number of factors, such as the country’s 3G spectrum allocations, the standards it adopts for 3G (if it adopts any standards vs. letting the marketplace make the decision), and the country’s current mobile telephony system configuration. Because a great deal of information and analysis is already available on the spectrum-related issues surrounding 3G implementation, this report focuses only on the technology standards issues pertaining to 3G.

Every individual around the every corner of the world rely on mobile technology. The thing which makes it more powerful is cellular communication. Cellular communications are not only restricted to voice calls but it has gone way beyond our imagination from generation to generation. There has been seen a number of improvements along with performance. It has a great impact on our daily lifestyle i.e. the way we work, interact, learn, explore etc. This paper provides an insight about generations of network from 0G to 4G. Also it will throw light on next possible generations - 5G, 6G and 7G. Although 5G is under development and it will be deployed by 2020, there are no such standards has been finalized for it. This paper will also focus on 0G to 4G architecture and standards along with the technology that will be used for the development. The next evolutions 6G and 7G are just concepts for now and research works are being carried out, but they are the future of mobile communication networks.

Chandigarh University (Punjab) India Abstract: 3G is the third generation of wireless technologies. This comes with enhancements over previous wireless technologies, as high-speed transmission, advanced multimedia access and. 3G is mostly used with mobile phones and handsets as a means to connect the phone to the Internet or other IP networks in order to make voice and video calls, download and upload data and to surf the net. 3G is the successor of 2G and 1G standards. The 3G networks handle the majority of all data transfers for cellular service providers. Keywords: 3G, 4G, 5G, Radio Access Network, Telecommunication, Cellular Network. I. Introduction 3G wireless technology is the convergence of various 2G wireless telecommunications systems into a single global system which includes both terrestrial and satellite components. 3G wireless technology has ability to unify existing cellular standards with CDMA, GSM, and TDMA. 3G has the following enhancements over 2.5G and previous networks: Higher data speed, Video-conferencing support, Enhanced audio and video streaming, Web and WAP browsing at higher speeds, IPTV (TV through the Internet) support transfer rate for 3G networks is between 128 and 144 kbps for devices that are moving fast and 384 kbps for slow ones. For fixed wireless LANs, the speed goes beyond 2mbps. II. Back Ground The first mobile telephone systems (car phone) were introduced in the late 1940s in the United States and in 1950s in Europe.

  • Ber Performance Study of Orthogonal Frequency
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Universiti Teknologi Malaysia Institutional Repository CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION This project studies the Bit Error Rate (BER) for Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing under different channels condition. Digital multimedia applications as they are getting common lately create an ever increasing demand for broadband communications systems. Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) has grown to be the most popular communications system in high speed communications in the last decade. In fact, it has been said by many industry leaders that OFDM technology is the future of wireless communications. The prosperous progress of mobile communications has built the main road of the history of wireless communication. The mobile wireless communications progressed from Personal Communication Services/Network (PCS/PCN) to Global System for Mobile Radio Channel (GSM) to General Packet Radio Service (GPRS) to Enhanced Data for Global Evolution (EDGE) to Universal Mobile Telecommunication Systems (UMTS) (better known as 3G) and will continue to evolve to 4G which is under active research. The evolution is depicted in the following figure. 2 Figure 1.1: Evolution of mobile wireless communications A step back into the history of wireless communications will reveal how this evolution was made possible. 1.1 History of Mobile Wireless Communications The history of mobile communication can be categorized into 3 periods: § the pioneer era § the pre-cellular

    The Mobile Telephone Cluster in the Nordic Countries: Policies to Foster Innovation and Success through Provider Competition and Knowledge Alliance Development John L. Rice Dr Mark A. Shadur PhD Student Research Fellow School of Management School of Management Queensland University of Technology Queensland University of Technology GPO Box 2434 GPO Box 2434 Brisbane Queensland 4001 Brisbane Queensland 4001 Australia Australia Ph: + 61 7 3864 1345 Ph: + 61 7 3864 2053 Fax: + 61 7 3864 1766 Fax: + 61 7 3864 1766 Abstract The Nordic countries, and most especially Finland and Sweden, have been very successful in the development of international leadership in both mobile telephone penetration and mobile terminal and infrastructure manufacturing. Nokia and Ericsson are often discussed as world leaders in product design and innovation for both terminal and network infrastructure. Their success is the product of many years government focus in developing the mobile telecommunications industry as a whole, with a key policy aim of having a innovative manufacturing sector anchored within an advanced and demanding regional mobile telecommunications market. We examine here the policy and market environment in these countries that has supported the development of this highly vertically integrated and successful industry. Some attention has been given to the development of science parks, support of collaborative research that has supported both research and development and the development of a skilled labor market to assist firms growth. Less attention has been given to the success of government policies that have promoted the firms core technological competencies in supranational fora (most notably the promotion of firm competencies in the GSM standard) and the positive impact of the deregulated competitive telecommunications market, especially in Finland.
