Abstract
As we move beyond third generation (3G), the wireless scenario is rapidly becoming rather complex. A mobile device, be it a phone, a PDA or a notebook, is expected to be feature-rich, and able to work with several wireless standards while achieving the highest performance/price ratio. The existing wireless standards are very different from one another. Moreover, each of them is fragmented in different operating frequency bands both due to the limited spectrum availability and the particular regulations in different geographical areas. Hence, 4G systems need to provide multi-band multi-standard capabilities in order to be competitive. In the effort of providing the user with an always best connected experience, handhelds are to roam among these coexisting standards in a seamless manner. Thus, the system will adapt to the environment offering the best available quality of service for the different applications (data, voice, multimedia) the mobile terminal is running at a given time. This situation is highlighted in Figure 8.1, which shows examples of the various services available in different scenarios. Advances in both integrated circuits design and process technology permit the higher level of integration these systems require at a sufficiently low power consumption.
