There was a time when the 3G users in the UK were sufficient, but recently the number of people using 3G devices increased immensely that brought in the need to employ 4G technology. With the ever increasing number of people using broadband, there is also a danger of the obstruction on the networks.

More often people are experiencing problems such as lack of consistency and slower speeds with their networks. This makes it even more important to employ 4G as quickly as possible. When the 4G is employed in the UK, there will be a great increase in the network capacity and it will cover up a lot of obstruction issues with the mobile broadband service providers.

Today’s wireless technologies promise numerous benefits for business. Mobile broadband provides immediate access to users, regardless of location. Major metropolitan areas have high speed broadband access all over London and other major cities, and remote areas are also able to provide compatible lower speed networks. Taking advantage of 3G technologies users can access email, browse the internet and access corporate networks from practically any location either stationary or on the go. Coverage is constantly improving and is extremely good, with service costs coming down every year.

There are two primary wireless broadband technologies used in Europe & North America using the same networks used for voice communication. This enables mobile user’s access to a vast infrastructure covering hundreds of locations. The practical application of the two broadband technologies, EV-DO and HSDPA, vary with the nature of work. For instance, sales personnel can access customer sites with having to connect to their network or construction foremen who can order their raw material over wireless mediums and send people to receive the building material saving precious time.

The benefits of adopting a wireless broadband service include

• Maximizing productivity by accessing information remotely at a higher transfer rate
• Increased security if email and other sensitive information
• Sharing information and keeping in touch anywhere and everywhere
• A single secure connection for all wireless communication

The future holds a very bright prospect for this industry. Once internet companies introduce 4G technology, and competition driving prices down, users will see the market open up to extensive entertainment services and wireless broadband business tools. But this is way ahead in the future, currently broadband provider are paying more attention to marketing and looking to increase their customer bases.

The government sold out the frequencies which became free after Germany had moved from analogue TV to digital TV. However, the auctions can’t be called ‘very successful’. Let’s compare: in 2000 the government received about € 50 billion for licensing 3G networks.

Now it is supposed that LTE wireless broadband networks will be deployed at the new frequencies. Their testing and trial operation is already being conducted in Germany as well as in Norway and Sweden. In December 2009 in Oslo the first commercial 4G network in the world was launched. By the end of this year the biggest mobile operator in the USA – Verizon Wireless – will have launched its own LTE network.

A Google netbook based on Chrome OS may be as real as a much-talked-of Google smartphone based on Android OS. So this new gadget should be considered as the best product for support of the first PC operating system that was developed by Google programmers.

According to the rumors that appear in different online-communities of IT experts, Google plans to put its netbook on the market at the end of 2010. As expected, it will have embedded modules for broadband Internet connection (WWAN), 3G and 4G modems and flash memory instead of hard drive.

Network deployment was put in charge of the Huawei Chinese company. Now inhabitants of Slough can enjoy high-speed mobile Internet. If the experiment is considered as successful, LTE-network will appear in other parts of the country.

4G-technology was developed to replace the networks of the third 3G generation. Theoretically, a system based on LTE can provide internet speed up to 326 Mbps downloads and to 86 Mbps uploads.

According to Matt Hatton’s words (an analyst from Analysys Mason), many companies are developing now phones with LTE support. Apple is working at its 4G iPhone, and Nokia, the Finnish mobile giant, does believe that LTE is the future of mobile communications.
