NEWS: Google sees big money in tiny cell sites (femtocells)

Search giant Google has joined investors pouring $25m into femtocell
technology company Ubiquisys, endorsing the technology that aims to
put tiny little 3G cell sites into every home.
Last week, Vodafone's request for proposal (basically asking for a
quote) for femtocell hardware became public, a significant indication
that it's serious about deploying the technology in at least some of
its operating territories.
This follows the recent announcement that Netgear would be
incorporating femtocell technology into some of its ADSL routers.
Femtocells are more useful than just delivering cellular coverage.
They have the potential to replace Wi-Fi in most homes, as well as
delivering data content without using cellular infrastructure - if
network operators can understand and exploit their potential.

At this time, femtocells require an FCC license. The governmint wants
to treat them a extension of the cellular provider and are therefore
required to provide interception (wire tap) services. The providers
seem to think that the femtocell will also provide access for their
other customers as they pass by. That's fine, but since the backhaul
will be via the internet, the home owners broadband might become
seriously constipated if overused. There are also topology problems
as the current cellular architecture is not going to scale to huge
numbers of home femtocells. Lastly, I'm not sure the average home
owner is going to give up their free cordless phone in favor of a
billable cell phone equivalent. Incidentally, the old AT&T tried this
with LMDS and an ISDN backhaul on the pole many years ago, and gave
up. The issue was not lack of speed. It was customers balking at
paying for in the home phone calls.

So, what comes after femto? Well, there's atto, zepto, and yocto (in
that order). I guess the AttoCell will be a wearable cell site and
ZeptoCell will be where the cell site is implanted in your head.

I see no reply from navas yet to Verizon turning down the iphone deal that
was reported by the register. :)
I wonder why that is ?

What ever happened to the Freedom Link phone that Bell (or at least
Southwestern Bell) offered that was a cordless phone in your house, but a
cellular handset out of range of your house.

Great concept but the standards process (think IPR) was skewed so that only

No one bought them and they got dumped on the closeout market for pennies
on the dollar without the base stations.
Way back in the late 90s when I was a SBMS (eventually Cingular) dealer I
used to buy them cheap and resell them as prepaid phones. The older
folks loved them- they looked and acted like cordless phones- they even
generated a fake dial tone (you pushed "talk" then dialed, rather than
the other way around like a typical cell. This will probably be hard for
the kids to understand, but that once was the biggest "support" issue I
had as a wireless dealer- teaching people how to dial them!

Last time I tried looking for it was ummm...golly 2001 or so.
I installed half a dozen of them in businesses back around '94 through '96.
I don't recall the base price, but I seem to recall the cellular pricing
was twice that of a regular account. Back in the days when daytime minute
plans were like 200 to 400 minutes a month.

How things have changed. The number where I worked at one time all
started with 630 as the exchange. This is also an area code. So every
once in a while we would get calls for people that weren't there. After
the first couple we always asked for the number they were calling. It
was invariably a person calling from a regular phone to the 630 area
code and forgetting that they needed to dial 1 first. Cell habits die
hard.

"The radio is a standard based radio such as UMTS/HSPA which the
operator will likely require a license to operate on."
I'll admit that it's speculation on my part. It's possible that
you're correct and that the FCC has suddenly released its iron grip on
anything belching RF and simply allowed rampant proliferation of
consumer installed cell sites, but I doubt it. However, I haven't
been following the news, so it's possible.
Meanwhile, as I understand it, a cellular operator can deploy as many
cell sites within their designated coverage area as required to
provide adequate service without going to the FCC for additional
licensing. They don't even need to tell the FCC where the sites are
located. In short, the carriers have a single license for a specific
coverage area. That's for the carrier, not for the consumer. I just
don't see femto cells being sold retail in an uncontrolled manner or
without some kind of regulatory involvement.
>
>Not according to what I've seen.
One of the proponents (LM Erikson???) had suggested that femto cells
be sold to businesses to offer improved coverage in their stores and
offices. I sorta assumed that this also applied to well positioned
home owners, such as those adjacent to shopping areas. Sorry, but I
can't find the reference.
However, you're generally coorect. For example, Ubiquisys has their
"ZoneGate" technology, which limits access to the femto cell base
station to registered SIM cards.
<http://www.ubiquisys.com/ubiquisys3/faqs.php>
"Can anyone within range of a ZoneGate access point make
mobile calls?
SIM setup and identity mean that only users with the bill
payer's permission can make calls using the ZoneGate device.
In addition, because each device has a unique network identity,
operators can offer customers special low-cost 'home zone' rates."
>
>Many of us are already cutting the cord to our not-free landlines in
>favor of cellular wireless.
I don't have a wired telephone in the my palatial office and use the
cell phone exclusively. It works well enough to tolerate the calls
that go directly to voice mail and the random disconnects (Verizon).
Fortunately, most of my phone use is during non-prime time, where such
problems are infrequent.
However, that's not exactly what I was talking about. I'm referring
to the difference between a $35 cordless phone purchase, with no
per-minute charges, attached to a $20/month POTS phone, versus a
$15/month (2nd phone including handset subsidy and taxes) cellular
account for a handset with per-minute charges and/or monthly quotas.
I can see some additional utility to have one instrument do
everything, but without a corresponding cost benefit, I doubt if the
average consumer would consider it worth the effort. If it were, then
we would see a larger number of cellular "docking stations" attached
to cordless or DECT phones in homes and businesses to allow sharing a
cellular account. These products exist, but are not particularly
popular. Unless the hardware were free or subsidized, doing
essentially the same thing with a femto cell only makes sense if the
home or business owner abandons all POTS service and switches
exclusively to cellular. I don't see that happening.
The push also seems to be toward delivering 3G data to the home.
That's nice because the same operators don't like "tethered access" or
using the cell phone as a data modem. So, fixed data service is
acceptable with a femto cell, but not an individual handset? Weird.
Basically, femto cell is a method of reducing the cost of deploying
additional cell sites to provide adequate 3G data coverage. Building
cell sites is expensive. Chopping the cell site into tiny pieces and
passing it around the neighborhood, is cheaper. Otherwise, they're
the same.

I sm not to sure about that. When I worked for nextel and latter voicestream
everysite we had had to have a copy of the license in it, and we also had to
report to the fcc the lat and log of every site to the fcc. Yes it was one
license, but it listed all our cell sites, and when we added cell sites we
had to report them to the FCC.

Yet alone the interference they may introduce into the microcells that are
already licensed and operated. The carrier will have todo some frequency
planning for these cells. Of course they are not radiating much power, but
close in they may introduce interference, especially between close
neighbors, if some kind of frequency planning is not being done. Documents I
have seen indicate that femtocells will have frequency planning as part of
the design.

Yep, good point. The femto cells will bea underlay to existing cell coverage
hopefully allowing seamless handovers.

Nextel is different. Nextel is not cellular. It's SMR (specialized
mobile radio) and is individually licenced by the site. When
refarming started, I vaguely recall someone from Nextel mumbling
something about having to tweak 30,000 licenses, and that was just for
the left coast.

If a carrier introduces interference to its own system, who's at
fault? For that matter, who is going to fix it?

Fat chance. Both the customers and the femto cells are going to be
fairly portable. I would assume that the femto cell has a GPS built
in (for timing sync if nothing else), which should give the carrier a
clue as to its location of the moment.

The power is low, but then so is the signal from the 3G cell site. The
assumption is that one only needs a femto cell (repeater) if the 3G
signal is too low to be useable in the house. So, it's a fair
assumption that the neighbors will have equally lousy reception from
the 3G cell site. Since the femto cell will probably belch more
signal to the neighbors than they can receive from the cell site,
there's a good chance that their marginal 3G coverage may start to
approach zero.
Planning is good. Engineering is better.
>Yep, good point. The femto cells will bea underlay to existing cell coverage
>hopefully allowing seamless handovers.
Maybe, but only if each femto cell allows roaming from the neighbors
and passerbys. The Ubiquisys box can only handle 4 connections max
which could easily be insufficient to handle both the household and
roaming traffic. At this point, it's all speculation, including most
of what I've been guessing. I really don't know what the various
proponents of femto cells are thinking or plotting. However, I'm sure
the grandois schemes and engineering miracles will follow shortly.

Yes I see that, but voicestream is a pcs carrier, and up here in rural
Alaska everyone of our cell sites is listed on our license with their lat
and longs.

Which is why I was saying this, the carriers are not going to place
femtocells out there without some kind of frequency planning

A block of frequecies may be set aside for these femto cells, where the
carriers will work around them.
