Recent years have witnessed an increasing demand for mobile wireless traffic due to the new types of user terminal and applications. The delivery of high throughput at cell edge, indoor and dead-spots is still a challenge. This has motivated the introduction of femtocells in 3G, LTE and WiMAX networks, initially targeting deployments in residential and corporate environment, to get better indoor voice and data coverage, whilst offloading at the same time macrocell traffic and promising to be a cost-effective solution. Femtocells are called to be an integral part of high-performance next-generation wireless systems, while keeping the seamless connectivity and mobility of conventional cellular networks. This workshop aims at covering the different technical challenges to which femtocell deployments are confronted.

Abstract
Recent years have witnessed an increasing demand for mobile wireless traffic due to the new types of user terminal and applications. The delivery of high throughput at cell edge, indoor and dead-spots is still a challenge. This has motivated the introduction of femtocells in 3G, LTE and WiMAX networks, initially targeting deployments in residential and corporate environment, to get better indoor voice and data coverage, whilst offloading at the same time macrocell traffic and promising to be a cost-effective solution. Femtocells are called to be an integral part of high-performance next-generation wireless systems, while keeping the seamless connectivity and mobility of conventional cellular networks. This workshop aims at covering the different technical challenges to which femtocell deployments are confronted.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
