How Does 4G Network Work and How Does It Compare To 3G and 2G?

Networking has evolved since the introduction of the 2G network and the 3G network. 4G network is a fourth generation mobile phone technology. Even with the introduction of 5G network, 4G is still widely used and a popular network.

4G communication systems have a faster speed compared to 2G and 3G networks. The network is seven times faster than 3G with a speed of 150mbps. Take for example you want to download data or a movie of 2giga bytes, and you are using a 3G network, then it means you are going to take over thirty minutes to download. For the person using a 4G network then he or she will take at most four minutes.

A better and faster version of 4G is available in some parts of the United Kingdom called 4G LTE advance or the 4G+. This advanced network of 4G is very fast and has a speed of 1. 5Gps.

4G devices have lower latency. Latency refers to the time taken for you to receive a response when you request it from the website or search engines. With a better latency, 4G therefore, has a better response time. There is usually a quicker response for the devices connected to 4G as compared to the device connected to 3G . The improved latency times have been reduced from the 80 milliseconds in a 3G network to 45 milliseconds in a 4G communication system.

4G systems have clear and noise free voice calls. The network has a better call and video call platform that is more efficient. You can call or text from almost anywhere when connected on the 4G network. This has improved the rate at which people make calls and text. People who communicates on a 4G system makes clear communication and they clearly listen to each other.
