Conclusion

The 4G technology is nothing less than ground breaking. The advancements that have been made from 3G to 4G alone are mind blowing. With the data processing speed being increased to at least 100 Mbit/sec the possibilities are limitless in the wireless communication world. The 4G technology has a great present and future scope and worth. It makes the average person really think about what is possible with wireless communication? If there ever is a 5G network, how powerful will it be and what will it possibly be able to do that the 4G doesn’t already do?

Applications

APPLICATIONS

• Virtual Presence: 4G system gives mobile users a "virtual presence" (for example, always-on connections to keep people on event).

• Virtual navigation: A remote database that contains the graphical representation of streets, buildings and physical characteristics of a large métropolitain is used. Blocks of this database are transmitted in a  rapid sequence to a vehicle.

• On stream moving pictures: Nowadays, more and more handier phones come with advance features and most of them the developed better cameras are not only meant to capture still pictures but also to record videos. Well, it is not anymore surprising the next time you hear about it, you will be amazed that using 4G you cannot only upload the video right after it has been recorded but everyone could already be streaming it live. With the previous technology, you should first record the clip and save prior to uploading to your favourite site but we are lucky since a service provider has come up with a program where in you can have live mobile videos directly seen through the web, known as live stream video, therefore creating a live broadcast reporter out of you.

• Augmented Reality of 4G: With the 4G band, the application gives an Augmented Reality while navigating. It presents a visually clear picture of the place via your own phone. Through this, you can even get its GPS information.

• Putting Tomorrow in Today’s Technology:

• Tele-geoprocessing
• Crisis-management applications
• Education
