The 4G is the fourth generation of mobile network which distances involved may be short (a few meters as in is the television remote control) or long (thousands or successor of 3G; the approaching 4G (fourth millions of kilometers for radio communications). generation) mobile communication systems are When the context is clear, the term is often shortened projected to solve still- remaining problems of 3G to "wireless". It encompasses various types of fixed, (third generation) systems and to provide a wide mobile, and portable two-way radios, cellular variety of new services, from high-quality voice to telephones, Personal Digital Assistants (PDAs), and high-definition video to high-data-rate wireless wireless networking. channels. In this paper we will throw light on the evolution and development of various generations of mobile technology along with their significance and advantages of one over the other. In the past few decades, mobile technologies have experience 4 or 5 generations of technology revolution and evolution, namely from 0G to 4G. Current research in mobile wireless technology concentrates on advance implementation of 4G technology and 5G technology. Currently 5G term is not officially used. In 5G researches are being made on development of World Wide Wireless Web (WWWW), Dynamic Adhoc Wireless Networks (DAWN) and Real Wireless World.

INTRODUCTION The history and evolution of mobile service from the 1G (first generation) to fourth generation are G in 1G, 2G, 3G, 4G, 5G stands for the “Generation” discussed in this section. of the mobile network. 1G was the first generation of mobile networks. Here basically radio signals were Table 1 presents a short history of mobile telephone transmitted in analogue form, one was not able to do technologies. This process began with the designs in more than sending text messaging and making calls the 1970s that have become known as 1G. The and the network was available only within the earliest systems were implemented based on analog country. technology and the basic cellular structure of mobile communication. Many fundamental problems were 2G were based on narrow band of digital networks, solved by these early systems. Numerous where signals transmitted in the digital format and incompatible analog systems were placed in service this dramatically improved the quality of calls and around the world during the 1980s.The 2G (second also reduced the complexity of data transmission. generation) systems designed in the 1980s were still used mainly for voice applications but were based on 3G has become popular largely thanks to the ability digital technology, including digital signal processing of users to access the Internet over devices like techniques. These 2G systems provided circuit- mobiles and tablets. The speed of data transmission switched data communication services at a low speed. on a 3G network ranges between 384KBPS to Imperial Journal of Interdisciplinary Research (IJIR) Page 423 Imperial Journal of Interdisciplinary Research (IJIR) Vol-3, Issue-2, 2017 ISSN: 2454-1362, http://www.onlinejournal.in Table. 1 History of mobile technology Its successor, 2G, which made use of digital signals, 1G wireless networks used analog radio signals. Through 1G, a voice call gets modulated to a higher frequency of about 150MHz and up as it is transmitted between radio towers. This is done using a technique called Frequency-Division Multiple Access (FDMA). In terms of overall connection quality, 1G compares unfavorably to its successors. It has low capacity, unreliable handoff, poor voice links, and no security at all since voice calls were played back in radio towers, making these calls susceptible to unwanted eavesdropping by third parties. However, 1G did maintain a few advantages over 2G. In comparison to 1G's analog signals, 2G's digital signals are very reliant on location and proximity. If a 2G handset made a call far away from a cell tower, the digital signal may not be strong enough to reach it. While a call made from a 1G handset had generally poorer quality than that of a 2G handset, it survived Figure.1 Shows the comparison of longer distances. This is due to the analog signal generation having a smooth curve compared to the digital signal, which had a jagged, angular curve. As conditions The 3G system would have higher quality voice worsen, the quality of a call made from a 1G handset channels, as well as broadband data capabilities, up to would gradually worsen, but a call made from a 2G 2 Mbps.

  • Before the Federal Communications Commission Washington, D.C. 20554 in the Matter Of: Petition for Rulemaking to Amend the Land
    Before the Federal Communications Commission Washington, D.C. 20554 In the Matter of: ) ) Petition for Rulemaking to Amend ) RM the Land Mobile-TV Sharing Rules ) in the 470-512 MHz Band ) ) PETITION FOR RULEMAKING BY THE NATIONAL PUBLIC SAFETY TELECOMMUNICATIONS COUNCIL The National Public Safety Telecommunications Council (NPSTC) submits this Petition for Rulemaking recommending that the Commission amend its rules which address land mobile/television sharing criteria in the 470-512 MHz band. The current rules were adopted over 35 years ago based on analog television receiver performance at that time. The transition from analog to digital television (DTV), scheduled to be completed by June 12, 2009, provides the opportunity to amend the rules to provide greater flexibility in the eleven markets where land mobile sharing is allowed. As digital receivers are less susceptible to interference than analog receivers, NPSTC’s recommended rule changes can be implemented without negatively impacting television viewing. The result of such modifications will provide significant benefits to public safety and other land mobile users of the band and allow more efficient use of the scarce spectrum resource. The National Public Safety Telecommunications Council The National Public Safety Telecommunications Council (NPSTC) is a federation of public safety organizations whose mission is to improve public safety communications and interoperability through collaborative leadership. NPSTC pursues the role of resource and advocate for public safety organizations in the United States on matters relating to public safety telecommunications. NPSTC has promoted implementation of the Public Safety Wireless Advisory Committee (PSWAC) and the 700 MHz Public Safety National Coordination Committee (NCC) recommendations.

  • Mobile Television Services Are Described
    ESPOO 2003 VTT PUBLICATIONS 506 VTT PUBLICATIONS 506 Watching television from a wireless pen tablet or pocket-sized terminal is interesting in many situations.

Report on the ... television set and as a tool for establishing closer interaction with the television programs. This publication presents results about people´s real interest in mobile television. The results come from interviewing a large number of persons and from building and trialing a prototype system. A total of 293 people took part in the interviews and the trial. The trial system combined several types of wireless networks in a 4G fashion. It took digital terrestrial television broadcasts from the air and delivered them over the Internet to mobile terminals in hot-spot areas covered by Wireless Local Area Networks (WLAN). Two kinds of terminals were used - a pocket-sized PDA and an A5- sized tablet PC. In the field trial the user could watch almost the entire program content of the three leading Finnish TV channels. The user was also able to access all programs transmitted during the previous week from the media server (TV-Anytime feature). This publication is intended for producers and distributors of television content, as well as for people in the handset device industry; it is also useful for students and people who are generally interested in the future of television. The publication starts with a review of television usage patterns and early experiences of digital television and mobile television trials around the world.

In this Handbook, new digital broadcasting technologies were explained in detail, for example a splendid description of the Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT) coding that is the basis of all past and present TV compression systems, as well as a very instructive chapter on signal power summation. Most of that content are not repeated in this new Handbook on Digital Terrestrial Television Broadcasting Networks and Systems Implementation. Therefore, the version 1.01, which was published by ITU in the year 2002, has not lost value and should still be consulted.
