DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Research and Markets has announced the addition of the "Small-Cell Solutions for Large Enterprises and Venues: Improving the Indoor User Experience " report to their offering.
"Small cells have made significant advances, but indoor coverage still poses problems in terms of scalability, macrocell feature parity, and ease of deployment and operation."
Indoor small cells have come a long way since the early femtocell 'all-in-one' designs. Initial large-scale deployments had interference and manageability problems, and overall offered poor service quality for users. New solutions deliver increased intelligence to automatically manage small-cell and macrocell interference, monitor service levels and provide centralised management options that can support up to 100,000 users.
This report:
- discusses the key features of small-cell solutions for large indoor venues and sites
- assesses the challenges that these installations face
- considers how the components of large-scale indoor small-cell solutions are connected together into a system and how they are managed
- outlines the features and services that indoor small-cell solutions can support
This report analyses small-cell solutions for large-scale indoor venues. These solutions address coverage and capacity requirements, and support local services and monetisation opportunities.
The report also provides recommendations for small-cell network equipment vendors. It is based on several sources:
- This internal research including our small-cell forecasts and our analysis of consumer smartphone usage
- Interviews with stakeholders in the small-cell market including representatives from Ericsson, Huawei, Nokia and SpiderCloud.
