Sometime back, before closing for the day, an email popped in my account with subject ‘Small Cell forum- Newsletter Q1 2012’. Curiously, I opened up the email, which read like this:
“Femto forum has become Small Cell forum”
That’s quite refreshing terminology. In fact, in Wireless Communication jargon, Femtocells are considered as ‘home base stations’ limiting its use to home users for Voice & Data both.
Though, in India, Femtocells aren’t officially introduced by any of the telcos, in other countries Femtocells had made quite headway in extending the cellular coverage of 3G & 4G network inside homes & small enterprises. Though there’s great deal of discussion going on regarding the successful business model for introduction of Femtocells, details are still awaited apart from resolution of some tech glitches.
Femto forum is the official forum for vendors & suppliers dealing with small cell technology including femtocells, picocells, and micro/metrocells.
