Comparison between mobile systems?

AI Thread Summary
The discussion highlights key differences between 2nd generation (GSM) and 4th generation mobile systems. GSM primarily uses Gaussian Minimum Shift Keying (GMSK) for modulation, while 4G employs advanced techniques like Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM). In terms of multiplexing, GSM utilizes Time Division Multiple Access (TDMA), whereas 4G supports more complex methods, allowing for higher data rates. The bit rate and bandwidth for subscribers are significantly higher in 4G, accommodating faster internet speeds and more simultaneous connections. Overall, 4G systems are more complex, offering enhanced capabilities compared to GSM.

what are the main differences between the 2nd generation (GSM) system and the 4th generation, in terms of:
-the type of modulation used.
-multiplexing with the base station.
-bit rate and bandwidth given for each supscriber.
- the complexity of the system.

if you could provide links for helpful websites that'd be great.
thanks in advance.

The EE forum is the logical place to ask this, but I don't know the answer. What online resources have you checked in looking for the answers? I'm sure wikipedia covers at least some of your questions.
 
Thread 'Weird near-field phenomenon I get in my EM simulation'
I recently made a basic simulation of wire antennas and I am not sure if the near field in my simulation is modeled correctly. One of the things that worry me is the fact that sometimes I see in my simulation "movements" in the near field that seems to be faster than the speed of wave propagation I defined (the speed of light in the simulation). Specifically I see "nodes" of low amplitude in the E field that are quickly "emitted" from the antenna and then slow down as they approach the far...
Hello dear reader, a brief introduction: Some 4 years ago someone started developing health related issues, apparently due to exposure to RF & ELF related frequencies and/or fields (Magnetic). This is currently becoming known as EHS. (Electromagnetic hypersensitivity is a claimed sensitivity to electromagnetic fields, to which adverse symptoms are attributed.) She experiences a deep burning sensation throughout her entire body, leaving her in pain and exhausted after a pulse has occurred...
