Abstract
Abstract : 4G is a brand name for the Fourth Generation of the cellular wireless standards. Over the years, Nigerian telecommunication firms have been in operation with predecessor generation standards (such as 2G and 3G). The design principle of each of these cellular wireless standards follow the same principle, where the information to be transmitted will pass from transmitter through a channel to the receiver at a frequency within the allowable band. For a long distance transmission to take place, information to be transmitted need to be modulated with high frequency also known as carrier frequency. This implies that for any licensed telecom firm in Nigeria, a carrier frequency slot from the regulatory body must be allotted. This research work aims to study the practice of telecommunications in Nigeria vis-a-vis the latest 4G technology around the world; identify the existing technologies in Nigeria; identify the limitations of Telecommunication Service Providers (TSPs) in Nigeria that may be responsible for delay (if any) in migration to 4G technology. The research methodology that was adopted in this research is the survey, interview, questionnaires and the use of statistical analysis tool (SPSS).
