Femtocell benefits
Femtocells offer a number of important benefits to both consumers and operators.
For consumers, they will provide improved mobile coverage (better signal strength) in their homes, and high performance mobile data providing faster access to mobile services and multimedia content. Mobile operators may also offer attractive service bundles for femtocell users. All of these benefits come without requiring users to make any changes to their existing mobile handsets. For the mobile operator, femtocells represent a highly cost effective way of increasing both network overage and capacity in the home – where a large percentage of phone usage takes place. Femtocells also allow for effective fixed-mobile substitution, by removing the need for users to have separate home phones. Finally, femtocells have an important role to play in driving premium mobile service takeup - finally turning the 3G service vision into a reality by encouraging a culture of usage through low-cost high-performance mobile data services. What are the consumer benefits of femtocells? There are several benefits for consumers, including better coverage (signal strength) at home, improved quality and personal ‘bandwidth’ for dedicated access to services such as mobile TV and music. Femtocells also make it easier for families to track their bills. More information… |
