Femtocells use common cellular air access technologies, but claim to improve system
capacity according to Shannon's law by reducing distance between transmitter and receiver …

Increase in system capacity and data rates can be achieved efficiently in a wireless system
by getting the transmitter and receiver closer to each other. Femtocells deployed in the …

Femtocells are a solution that helps to reduce the capital and operational expenditure of a
mobile network while enhancing system coverage and capacity. However, the avoidance of …

In this paper we will compare the cost & capacity performance of femtocell and macrocellular
networks. The motivation is the possibility to use femtocells as complement or as …

A fundamental choice in femtocell deployments is the set of users which are allowed to
access each femtocell. Closed access restricts the set to specifically registered users, while …

Over the last two years, GSM and UMTS femtocell access points have been proposed as a
solution to the poor indoor coverage problem experienced in certain areas. Research on …

The proliferation of internet-connected mobile devices will continue to drive growth in data
traffic in an exponential fashion, forcing network operators to dramatically increase the …

Femtocells are low-power wireless access points used in the home and office. They operate
in licensed spectrum to connect standard mobile phones (WCDMA, LTE, WiMAX, CDMA and …

Femtocells are a promising solution for the provision of high indoor coverage and capacity.
Furthermore, OFDMA-based femtocells have proven to be highly versatile when dealing with …

Femto cells, also called home base stations, are small cellular access points installed by
home users to get better indoor voice and data coverage with lower network operation cost …
