ABSTRACT
This paper provides a cost effective method for cellular telecommunications base stations that can be installed in residential or business environments either as single stand-alone items or in clusters to provide improved cellular coverage within a building. Data transmission, good signal strengths within buildings, increase in system capacity and data rates are some of the issues been discussed in this review work. The increasing demand for higher data rates in cellular networks has resulted in a trend to smaller cell sizes (Femto cells) and Pico-cellular hot spot coverage. As a result the user can have the advantage of better coverage for additional services, cost benefits and also the network operator, the use of Femto cells provides a very cost effective means of improving coverage, along with linking users to the network, and providing additional revenue from the provision of additional services. Femto cells deployed in the macro cell significantly improve the indoor coverage and provide better user experience. This article summarizes about the network architecture of Femto cells and the issues involved with it. Also it describes about the methods to overcome the issues
