4G Technology

alstrup
Can anyone direct me to some appropriate sites about the new emerging 4G wireless technology. It appears that this is intended to replace the current 3G technology. I wonder how much worse this is than 3G. I read that there are two transmission technologies used for 4G, but I dont know the transmission spectrums. How are the transmission towers set up and do they require the same number of towers than 3G or more? I really dread this new technology.

Re: 4G Technology

I don't know any studies on the harmful effects of 4G!

This is one article on Wimax/4G being launched somewhere in Sweden and people not liking it:

http://www.engadget.com/2006/06/12/swedes-hit-hard-by-wimax-waves/


This is a good text on 4G (in Europe) and about the different technologies that are named 4G:

http://www.capgemini.com/insights-and-resources/by-publication/3G-4G_strategies_\
for_operators_in_europe/

(register and then download the pdf is very easy and it is worthwhile)

There are 3 technologies named 4G. The 2 most important are Wimax and LTE.

Wimax is already present in the UK, and in many countries, but mostly only very local, in the major cities,... and mostly not nation-wide,

Nationwide 4G (probably LTE) will take some time in the UK, a good source on this:

http://www.telecoms.com/21754/uk-outlines-plans-to-auction-4g-spectrum/
However, ongoing delays have put the country behind other parts of Western Europe and operators are unlikely to get their hands on the attractive 2.6GHz band before 2012.

I've read in Germany 4G LTE is recently active and will be almost everywhere nation-wide by the end of 2011:
http://www.theregister.co.uk/2010/09/06/german_lte/

For Flanders/Brussels/Belgium, normally they're selling the licence for 4G by the end of this year.

I live in a city which already has 4G coverage everywhere I go, and
I haven't noticed any new symptoms... but then again, I'm no longer
as sensitive as many of the people here.

I really feel you...are you in the U.S.?  I guess 5G will be the next craze.  I'm in NJ and I'm trying to figure out how to deal with these solar panels that they've put in front of many houses,  schools, businesses and municipal buildings.  I guess they must be 4G, as well.  I get fried on almost every street now.  No one ever asked anyone's permission.  They have only been up for about 6 to 10 months with the complete arrays only about 6 to 8 months.  Most people do not notice these things.  If they don't feel them (most don't), they won't see them.  For me, these solar panels have replaced cell phone masts as the most annoying frequencies because they are almost everywhere amping up everything. 
 
I guess I won't find that discussion online here until the new system finds its way into your communities.  I wonder if they are a part of the new Smart Meter technology.  I recall hearing that they were apart of the "smart grid" technology.  You all are in for quite a treat with this technology.  It's like frying in WIFI but a few times stronger, 24/7- down almost every block.  Oh here's the clinch...
 
PSE&G had the contract with Petra Solar to place 200,000 in municipalities throughout NJ back in early summer. Then in around July, they contracted with AT&T to set-up a wireless connection between each panel. I walk, which is utterly loathsome--but technically, driving is equally bothersome in this "brave new world."  
 
Maybe we should each wait to see where it all ends up, because it seems that as soon as we catch up with a new technology...the next is waiting in the wings to dwarf that one.

Re: 4G Technology

Overhere we also do have solar panels.

However those panels do not produce elektrosmog.

Elektrosmog comes form the tranformers, where the DC current is transformed into AC curretnt.
And these tranformerboxes do produce what I call *dirty air*, VLF frequencies, where electrosensitives may react to heavily.

Re: 4G Technology

Thanks to those who sent all the links - tons of stuff to go through - a bit
overwhelming - could someone make it short and "sweet" for me right now?

 
Basically I want to know: 

        * The preferred transmission system for 4G is Wimax?
        * Are new cellular towers to be put up for 4G and are these just as many or
more than the number of 3G towers?

Re: 4G Technology

charles-4
No, Wimax is quite a different system.

Wimax works on the 3,5 GHz frequency band, and is meant for internet.

4G is the successor for 3 G, and works on the 800 MHz and on the 2,6 GHz frequency band.
On the 800 MHz band it is meant for stationairy use, on the 2,6 GHz band it is meant for mobile use.

Re: 4G Technology

alstrup
OK many thanks for that info Charles.

Anyone happen to know about the 4G requirements for cellular towers?

No, Wimax is quite a different system.

Wimax works on the 3,5 GHz frequency band, and is meant for internet.

4G is the successor for 3 G, and works on the 800 MHz and on the 2,6 GHz
frequency band.
On the 800 MHz band it is meant for stationairy use, on the 2,6 GHz band it is
meant for mobile use.

Thanks to those who sent all the links - tons of stuff to go through - a bit
overwhelming - could someone make it short and "sweet" for me right now?

Basically I want to know:

* The preferred transmission system for 4G is Wimax?
* Are new cellular towers to be put up for 4G and are these just as many or
more than the number of 3G towers?

Jerusalem:

Officials say upgrading infrastructure to for 4G cellular phones could
increase use of such technologies and increase public's exposure to
radiation.

The Health and Environmental Protection ministries told the
Communications Ministry on Sunday that they will oppose the expansion
of cellular phone infrastructure to accommodate "fourth-generation"
(4G) devices, at least until any health effects from the radiation are
examined in depth.

LTE and Wimax are different, different frequencies and all that and not that I really care what's in a name, but both are considered by some/many as "4G"... 4G standing for more advanced and more bits being transfered than 3G...

I copy/paste from a post of me a week ago:

This is a good text on 4G (in Europe) and about the different technologies that
are named 4G:

http://www.capgemini.com/insights-and-resources/by-publication/3G-4G_strategies_\
\
for_operators_in_europe/

(register and then download the pdf is very easy and it is worthwhile)

Note that in the city where I live, 4G is operating at 700 MHz -- this is
what Verizon is using in the USA.

So are you saying that 4G is a lower frequency than 3G?  Loni

With Verizon in the USA, this appears to be true:

  Verizon 3G: 800 Mhz or 1900 Mhz
  Verizon 4G: 700 Mhz

Lower frequencies have better penetration through walls...

Re: 4G Technology

In reply to this post by Marc Martin

Hi

A UK friend of mine is a electronic engineer and works (amongst other things) with shielding equipment from EMF.

I mailed him this morning re the 4G and this is his reply (I'm copy-pasting the whole email, although some of it's not relevant to 4G specifically).

My email question:

Anyhow, if something has lower frequency, such as 4G vs 3G, will that mean the wave lengths will be longer?  So will it be easier to shield with aluminium mosquito net?

His reply:

Ok yes you are correct lower frequency means longer wavelength.

 

Longer wavelengths (lower frequencies) are easier to shield in terms of a faraday cage and yes you are correct lower frequencies have more penetrating ability through non metallic material such as rocks and buildings.  Theory can explain this.

 

Something also related to radio waves getting through whatever is in their way is the power they have at their source.   I think you will be shocked that TV can be 100's of kW's (enough to power many many many houses with all the lights on as well as heaters and cookers etc.) while the mobile phone cell sites are only like 1 kW.  The big difference is that the TV masts are long way away on the tops of lovely back to nature type Hills like very easily 30 to 60km away.  As we know the strength of radio waves decreases very rapidly with distance and there are equations that determine the field strength at various distances.

 

Was at an EMC risk assessment workshop a few weeks ago and the expert in this field says that the effect of a 1kW phone mast at 1m distance is the same as that of a mobile phone next to your head.  My comment was there is no way I would feel happy 1m from such a mast (a 1kW microwave oven) with everyone agreeing with me and the expert saying lets move on.  Well in this instance there was no close proximity to the mast so I was not bothered.   This is the problem that experts in the field so no problem with EMF as long as it does not affect equipment which is designed to be very immune to such fields.  The only thing that is a problem is the heart pacemaker as I do not think they can shield the wire connections so they are susceptible and even EMC experts are willing to accept that many otherwise considered safe areas are not safe for those with pace makers.
