Current Advancements in Wireless Communication

Abstract: Wireless communication is the transfer of any information over some distance without the use of wires. Radio, or the use of radiated electromagnetic waves, is the only practical way of communicating with people or vehicles that move around on land, on the sea, in the air, or in outer space. It is the use of electromagnetic waves that permits the transmission and reception of information over a distance without the use of wires. Market demands for higher cellular density in urban areas, broadband internet wireless, and better data security, while using a minimum amount of frequency spectrum is driving wireless developments forward at an amazing speed. The evolution of wireless communications from analog to digital to broadband has taken longer and cost more money than most industry observers believed. At the same time WLAN “hotspots ” are emerging rapidly. At present, the major applications of Wireless communication are Wi-Fi, WiMax and ZigBee. This paper gives an overview of some of the current advancements in Wireless Communication technology
