4G Trends

Operators are at their wits' end in an attempt to provide their customers with the maximum network resources due to an unprecedented volume of data demand. Mobile apps such as instant messaging, video messaging, picture sharing, social media, and Web-based games are guzzling bandwidth, expanding the demand and adding weight to the operator's job.

With net additions to the wireline subscriber base on a decline, Indian operators, pretty much following other regions, are moving to the wireless segment, striving hard to find a place there.

HP today announced new unified wired and wireless solutions that deliver a simple, scalable and secure network supporting bring-your-own-device (BYOD) initiatives while creating incremental revenue opportunities for partners.

Existing 4G networks for mobile devices still have limited global reach, but that's not going to keep 5G technology waiting in the wings. Samsung has announced that it has developed some transceiver technology that can deliver 5G speeds in the 28Ghz frequency at 1.06 Gbps for a distance of two kilometers.

Samsung said today that it is testing 5G technology capable of data speeds 100 times faster than 4G networks.   According to a press release, Samsung's new adaptive array transceiver technology will allow data to transmit at higher frequencies than currently possible.  Samsung's transceiver transmits data in the millimeter-wave band at a frequency of 28 GHz at a speed of up to 1.056 Gbps to a distance of up to 2 kilometers.  Read more about Samsung Boasts 5G Technology 100 Times Faster than 4GComments
