Abstract: With the increasing demands in the field of mobile & data communications, the sole aim is to connect users as fast as possible. 4G provides high mobility with high speed data rates and also supports high capacity IP-based services and applications while it also maintains full backward compatibility. It is also based on wireless communication that is IP based and is slated on Advanced MIMO technology. WiMAX, LTE, Advanced LTE Technologies, etc are part of 4G. In this paper, we portray what the 4G technology actually is including its Technical aspects, Key Features, Challenges, etc and how easy it is to implement 4G showing its Cost effectiveness. Some propositions has been made in order to understand the proper advantages and challenges of 4G System for effective implementation, for e.g.: 4G Network access requires large number of Transmitters & Receivers in the Device which result in heavy consumption of battery. This paper emphasizes on such constrains and its removal. Further, application of multimode software is explained by which different networks can be maintained. Another proposal of Coding Strategies for 4G Wireless Networks in case of Video is mentioned in the paper. Finally, a snapshot of Future Technologies such as 5G, 6G & 7G has been given which has immense scope for innovative research and development.
