Overview
Although still in its infancy, the market for femtocells has evolved rapidly over the last two years, moving from a compelling concept but one without clear commercial viability to a reality which could fundamentally alter the mobile telecoms landscape. However, despite its prospects, the industry has been slow to embrace and deploy femtocells, and although Sprint in the US and Starhub in Singapore have dipped a toe in the water, most femtocell deployments are still at trial stage.
Nonetheless, ARCchart anticipates the first large-scale femtocell deployments will arrive in Q2 2009, with the market ramping in 2010. With increasing user demand for mobile broadband data, operators will look to femtocells to improve indoor coverage whilst easing capacity requirements and backhaul costs in their marco-network.
Topics of coverage include:
- Understanding the femtocell business case
- How a femtocell works
- The femtocell vendor investment landscape
- Mobile operator strategies
- Femtocell deployments in the enterprise
- Barriers and driver to femtocell adoption
- Technology overview and trends
- Profiles of femtocell equipment vendors
- Interpretability and standardisation
- Femtocell market forecasts
