Abstract
Even though the fourth-generation (4G) wireless story has not yet been defined, it is clear that the industry is moving aggressively to a 4G world. The pace of 4G adoption as well as the rate at which standards are being developed is by far the fastest of all previous generations of wireless. Whereas it took nearly ten years for third-generation (3G) to roll out and become standardized, 4G activities are proceeding on a much faster three-year cycle.
