Abstract
In this paper the femtocell base station called the Femtocell Access Point (FAP) was described and studied. The femtocell (FAP) is fully user-deployed and hence reduces the infrastructure, maintenance, and operational cost of the operator while at the same time providing good Quality of Service (QoS) to the end user and high network capacity gains. The surest way to increase the system capacity and data rates can be achieved efficiently in a wireless system by getting the transmitter and receiver closer to each other. In a network with nomadic users, this inevitably involves deploying more infrastructure, typically in the form of microcells, hotspots, distributed antennas, or relays. Femtocells deployed in the macrocell significantly improve the indoor coverage and provide a better user experience. In this paper the four indoor propagation path loss models with simulated data for different scenarios at 2 GHz are presented In additions the Simulation were carried out in two different scenarios LOS and NLOS for max 50m femtocell and max 100m macrocell network. The simulation results was implemented using Matlab code software.
