Value added service management in 4G networks for Mobile communication

ABSTRACT:

Third-generation (3G) mobile networks face a new challenger: called 4G. And, this 4G networks may even be profitable. 3G mobile networks are being switched on around the world, a couple of years later than planned, attention is shifting to what comes next: a group of newer technologies that are, inevitably, being called Fourth Generation Mobile Networks (4G). The fourth generation of mobile networks will truly turn the current mobile phone networks, in to end to end IP based networks, couple this with the arrival of IPv6, every device in the world will have a unique IP address, which will allow full IP based communications from a mobile device, right to the core of the internet, and back out again. . Next Generation Networks (NGNs) are becoming fast and very cost-effective solutions for those wanting an IP built high-speed data capacities in the mobile network In this paper we evaluate the 4G through 3G and also describe 4G with social network. We explain new Opportunities and network models for 4G. Finally concludes with futuristic views for the quick emergence of this emerging technology.

INTRODUCTION :

4G is an all IP-based integrated system will be capable to provide 100 Mbps for high mobility and 1 Gbps for low mobility , with end-to-end QoS and high security, and will offering various services at any time as per user requirements, anywhere with seamless interoperability, at affordable cost. 4G is a conceptual framework for or a discussion point to address future needs of a universal high speed wireless network that will interface with wire line backbone network seamlessly. 4G is all about convergence; convergence of wired and wireless networks, wireless technologies including GSM, wireless LAN, and Bluetooth as well as computers, consumer electronics, communication technology and several others. 4G is a Mobile multimedia, anytime anywhere, Global mobility support, integrated wireless solution, and customized personal service network system. The goal of 4G is to replace the current proliferation of core cellular networks
with a single worldwide cellular core network standard based on IP for control, video, packet data, and VoIP. The use of the 4G service will be very similar to that of the 3G service whilst offering much higher data

transfer rates and therefore allowing either more speed intensive applications or more users to experience good speeds whilst only connected through 1 carrier

This new generation of wireless is intended to complement and replace the 3G systems, perhaps in 5 to 10 years. Accessing information anywhere, anytime, with a seamless connection to a wide range of information and services, and receiving a large volume of information, data, pictures, video, and so on, are the keys of the 4G infrastructures. The future 4G infrastructures will consist of a set of various networks using IP (Internet protocol) as a common protocol so that users are in control because they will be able to choose every application and environment. The approaching 4G (fourth generation) mobile communication systems are projected to solve stillremaining problems of 3G (third generation) systems and to provide a wide variety of new services, from high-quality voice to high-definition video to high-data-rate wireless channels. The term 4G is used broadly to include several types of broadband wireless access communication systems, not only cellular telephone systems. One of the terms used to describe 4G is MAGIC-Mobile 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 communication arena. The 4G systems not only will support the next generation of mobile service, but also will support the fixed wireless networks.

Basic Architecture of 4G mobile communication: End-to-end Service Architectures for 4G Mobile Communications A characteristic of the transition towards 3G systems and beyond is that highly integrated telecommunications service suppliers fail to provide effective economies of scale.This is primarily due to deterioration of vertical integration scalability with innovation speed up. Thus,the new rule for success in 4G telecommunications markets will be to provide one part of the puzzle and to cooperate with other suppliers to create the complete solutions that end customers require. A direct consequence of these facts is that a radically new end-to-end service architecture will emerge during the deployment of 3G mobile networks and will became

prominent as the operating model of choice for the Fourth Generation (4G) Mobile Telecommunications Networks. This novel end-to-end service architecture is inseparable from an equally radical transformation of the role of the telecommunications network operator role in the new value chain of end service provision. In fact, 4G systems will be organized not as monolithic structures deployed by a single business entity, but rather as a dynamic confederation of multiplesometimes cooperating and sometimes competing

service providers.
End-to-end service architectures should have the following desirable properties: Open service and resource allocation model. Open capability negotiation and pricing model . Collaborative service constellations. Service fault tolerance. Flexibility of 4G Architecture for Mobile Communication:

Users will have access to different services, increased coverage, the convenience of a single device, one bill with reduced total access cost, and more reliable wireless access even with the failure or loss of one or more networks.

The device itself incorporates most of the additional complexity without requiring wireless network modification or employing inter-working devices.

Implementation Requirements for 4G communication: All-IP packet switched network. Data rates up to 100 Mbps for high mobility and up to 1 Gbps for low mobility. Seamless connectivity and global roaming Interoperability with existing wireless standards Smooth handovers. High QoS. IPv6 Requirement 4G network is based on IPv6 support rather than IPv4. it is IPv6 which is supports network devices. Increased number of IP addresses also removes the need for NAT (network Address translation). NAT is a term referred to sharing minimum IP addresses with larger number of devices. Besides this improvement Nat would also has to communicate with the other devices on the previous IPv4 devices. 4G has also brought improvements in network infrastructure. For example 3G used both circuit switched and packet switched network nodes, while 4g is merely based on packet switching, hence lowering the latency of data. The basic 4G standards include LTE advanced and 802.16m.

Differences between 3G and 4G APPLICATIONS: VIRTUAL NAVIGATION AND TELEGEOPROCESSING:You will be able to see the internal layout of a building during an emergency rescue. This type of application is some time referred to as telegeoprocessing. A remote database will contain the graphical representation of streets, buildings and physical characteristics of a large metropolis. Blocks of this database will be transmitted in rapid sequence to a vehicle, where a rendering program will permit the occupants to visualize the environment ahead. They may also virtually see the internal layout of buildings to plan an emergency rescue or engage hostile elements hidden in the building TELEMEDICINE:A paramedic assisting a victim of a traffic accident in a remote location could access medical records (X-rays) and establish a video conference so that a remotely based surgeon could provide on-scene assistance.

CRISIS MANAGEMENT APPLICATION:In the event of natural disasters where the entire communications infrastructure is in disarray, restoring communications quickly is essential. With wideband wireless mobile communications, limited and even total communication capability (including Internet and video services) could be set up within hours instead of days or even weeks required at present for restoration of wire line communications.

cellular system, or 4G. To achieve this goal of 4G-technology will need to improve significantly in order to handle the intensive baseband processing and the wide bandwidth of a high power signal.
