Abstract We’re still in the middle of the 4G revolution, in that the superfast mobile data service is still in its
infancy in both coverage and speed capabilities. Customers of telecommunication demand more and more from their
technology. To maintain such a powerful system, we require a high speed wireless connectivity. The drawbacks of
4G mobile technology led the researchers and developers to arise with more advanced and efficient technologies. 5G
mobile technology is the next generation of wireless networks that will totally replace existing 4G networks. This
paper focuses on all preceding generations of mobile communication along with fifth generation technology. Fifth
generation network provides reasonable broadband wireless connectivity (very seamless high speed). The paper
throws light on the difference from 1G to 5G.
Keywords: 1G, 2G, 3G, 4G, 5G, 5G architecture

1. Introduction
Wireless technologies are going to take new dimension
in our lives. The wireless broadband will soon become
readily available to everybody while, being at home,
driving the car, sitting in the park, and even on a pleasure
boat in the middle of a lake. And because of this, our need
to have information at anytime and to be connected at all
places, all the time, will be satisfied. The world of
universal, uninterrupted access to information,
entertainment and communication will open new
dimension to [1] our lives and change our life style
significantly. In this way 5G is the new evolution of this
new era. 5G is the name currently being given to the next
generation of mobile data connectivity that will come after
the last drop has been wringed from 4G. It will provide
unbelievably fast broadband speeds, but more importantly
it will have enough capacity wherever you go to perform
every function you want it to without a drop in speed or
connection, no matter how many people are connected at
the same time.
2. Evolution
Mobile communication has become more popular in
last few years due to fast revolution in mobile technology.
This revolution is due to very high increase in mobile
customers [2]. This revolution is from 1G - the first
generation, 2G- the second generation, 3G - the third
generation, 4G - the fourth generation, and then the 5G -
the fifth second generation as shown in Figure 1.
