Femtocells: Technology of the Future

Abstract

As the wireless technology and standards continue to evolve, wireless communication systems and standards promise to support an even higher number of mobile users, new applications, higher data rates, better coverage and more stringent quality of service (QoS) standards. Users need to be provided with high data rates and reliable service irrespective of their mobility or location. Therefore, to meet the greater demand with limited resources is becoming an important problem. In a network with nomadic users, this inevitably involves deploying more infrastructure, typically in the form of microcells,hot spots, distributed antennas, or relays. Another concept that has gained considerable attention is that of femtocells. It is an emerging wireless access point that can improve indoor coverage as well as reduce bandwidth load in the macrocell network. In this article, we present the description of the femtocells and the technical challenges faced in their deployment.
