Abstract

Modern technology is evolving so fast, that it can be very difficult to keep follow everything new. Cellular Communication is one of the most recent areas which is developing tremendously fast at present times, it is only due to the advancement of technology in all the fields of cellular and wireless communications. Networks are used basically in business and home applications, mobile users, and in all social concerns. At the present time, the use of 3rd Generation (3G) cellular communication systems seems to be the standard, while the 4th generation (4G) stands for the next generation of wireless and cellular communications. This comparative study between 3G & 4G tells about the scope, background and the visualization for the 4G.

In this paper, we first present a brief review on the evolutionary history, features, condition of network communication and comparison of 3G - 4G perspectives. It is followed by the introduction to 4G technologies to fulfill the limitations of 3G services. At the end, the paper is summarized.
