2004 RFIC Symposium

Although there is no official definition of the term “4G Wireless Network,” there is somewhat of a consensus emerging that 4G will be a cooperation of present wireless standards rather than a new definition of a radio system. The two main protocols that are being considered central to 4G are WWAN systems built around the cellular standards, in particular UMTS, and WLAN systems built around IEEE 802.11.

The speakers in this workshop will consider the interoperability of WLAN and UMTS receivers, as well as the unique system and circuit design challenges for the receiver for the EGPRS, W-CDMA, and the IEEE 802.11 protocols.
