The 4G systems not only will support the next generation of mobile service, but also will support the fixed wireless networks. This paper presents an overall vision of the 4G features, framework, and integration of mobile communication. The features of 4G systems might be summarized with one ABSTRACT word—integration. The 4G systems are The (fourth 4G about seamlessly integrating terminals, mobile networks, and applications to satisfy approaching generation) communication systems are projected increasing user to solve still-remaining problems of 3G continuous expansion (third generation) systems and to communication and wireless networks provide a wide variety of new services, shows evidence of exceptional growth from high-quality voice to high- in the areas of mobile subscriber, definition high-data-rate wireless network wireless channels. The term 4G is used services, and broadly to include several types of networking broadband wireless networks. communication systems, video to access not only cellular telephone systems. One of the terms used to describe MAGIC—Mobile 4G is multimedia, Anytime anywhere, Global mobility support, Integrated wireless solution, and Customized personal service. As a promise for the future, 4G systems, that is, cellular broadband wireless access systems, have been attracting much interest in the mobile demands. of access, applications and vehicle The mobile mobile in 4G adoch 4G will be capable of providing Fourth generation: between 100 Mbit/s and 1 Gbit/s Fourth generation also known as “Beyond 3G", a term used to describe speeds both indoors and outdoors, with premium quality and high security the next complete evolution in wireless communications. A 4G system will be 4G EVOLUTION: able to provide a comprehensive IP solution where voice, data and streamed multimedia can be given to users on an "Anytime, Anywhere" basis, and at higher data rates than previous generations. The international telecommunications regulatory and standardization bodies are working for commercial deployment of 4G networks roughly in the 2012-2015 time scale. At that point it is predicted that even with current evolutions of third generation 3G networks. There is no formal definition for what 4G is; however, there are certain objectives that are projected for 4G. These objectives include: that 4G will be a fully IP-based integrated system. 4G will be capable of providing between First generation: Almost all of the systems from this generation were analog systems where voice was considered to be the main traffic. These systems could often be listened to by third parties. Some of the standards are NMT, AMPS, Hicap, CDPD, Mobitex, DataTac, TACS and ETACS. Second generation: All the standards belonging to this generation are commercial centric and they are digital in form. Around 60% of the current market is dominated by European standards. The second generation standards are GSM, iDEN, D-AMPS, IS-95, PDC, CSD, PHS, GPRS, HSCSD, and WiDEN. 100 Mbit/s and 1 Gbit/s speeds both indoors and outdoors, with premium Third quality and high security. these will growing demands in network capacity, tend to be congested. There is no rates required for high speed data formal definition for what 4G is; transfer and multimedia applications, however, there are certain objectives 3G standards started evolving. The that are projected for 4G. These systems in this standard are essentially objectives include: that 4G will be a a linear enhancement of 2G systems. fully IP-based integrated system. They are based on two parallel generation: To meet the backbone infrastructures, one consisting of circuit switched nodes, and one of packet oriented nodes. The ITU defines a specific set of air interface technologies as third generation, as part of the IMT-2000 initiative. Currently, transition is happening from 2G to 3G systems. As a part of this transition, numerous technologies are being standardized. Advantage over 3G: The advantages of 4G are shown in the above table...........

Key elements of 4G vision With 4G, a range of new services and models will be available. These APPLICATIONS: services and models need to be further examined for their interface with the 4G NETWORKING design of 4G systems. Figures 2 and 3 COMUNICATION: IN Fourth-generation systems (4G) dictate mobile entirely new approaches and novel infrastructure solutions to seamlessly integrate the existing wireless technologies including wireless broadband (WiBro), 802.16e, CDMA, wireless LAN, Bluetooth, and etc. The key features of 4G mobile systems can be summarized as follows. First, 4G mobile systems are all-IP based heterogeneous networks that allow users to use any system at any time and anywhere. Second, 4G mobile systems provide end-users with high-speed, large volume, good quality, global coverage, and flexibility to roam 4G mobile systems provide high-dataservices numerous to accommodate multimedia applications such as video conferencing, on-line gaming, etc. Owing The key challenges are summarized between different types of technologies.

These networks will use a variety of mobile packet radio technologies along with Wi-Fi to offer a ubiquitous broadband experience for the mobile subscriber. In addition, the major application view of VANETs includes real-time and safety applications. Non-safety applications include real-time traffic congestion and routing information, high-speed tolling, mobile infotainment, traffic condition monitoring, and many others. Vehicular safety applications include emergency, collision, car accident, and other safety warnings. For high performance, highly robust, scalable, robust, fault tolerant, and secure vehicular networking, several extraordinary challenges are remained as follows: WiMAX has been at the forefront of the move to all-IP end-to-end networks based on open systems, and this technology is already being deployed in fixed wireless applications. The 3GPP and 3GPP2 roadmaps also show a clear direction toward all-IP end-toend networks and open systems. In all three cases OFDMA and MIMO are seen as critical ingredients (Figure 1).

If the network is made up of different RF technologies, then client devices must also support multiple RF modes. This scenario is already occurring as cellular technologies are introduced into laptops and Wi-Fi technology begins to emerge in mobile phones. In The mobile gateway will emerge as addition to handsets, these networks these networks begin to develop.

A critical feature of nextgeneration networks is that they are much simpler than 3G networks. Nextgeneration networks typically have only two types of devices: base stations and mobile gateways-and that CONCLUSION: the to delivery the of mobile home. Indoor As the history of mobile communications shows, attempts have been made to reduce a number of technologies to a single global standard. Projected 4G systems offer this promise of a standard that can be embraced worldwide through its key concept of integration. Future wireless networks will need to support diverse IP multimedia applications to allow sharing of resources among multiple users. There must be a low complexity of implementation and an efficient means of negotiation between the end users and the wireless infrastructure. The fourth generation promises to fulfill the goal of PCC (personal computing and communication)—a vision that affordably provides high data rates everywhere over a wireless network.
