    Heterogeneous networks involve a mix of radio technologies and cell types like macro base stations, small cells, and WiFi working seamlessly together to meet increasing mobile data demands. This helps deliver consistent, high-quality mobile broadband experiences. Key aspects include enhancing existing macro cells, densifying networks with additional macro or micro cells, and adding small cells like pico cells. Cell coordination between macro and small cells also improves network performance and user experience especially in imbalanced coverage areas.

    3 steps
    TO A HIGH-QUALITY MOBILE USER EXPERIENCE

    A Heterogeneous Network (Hetnet) based on a single vendor 3GPP-standardized and coordinated radio network with integrated Wi-Fi, advanced traffic management and high-performance backhaul, will help to deliver a consistent, high-quality and seamless mobile broadband experience.

    Improve existing macro cells by enhancing macro cells with more spectrum,
    advanced antennae, increased order of diversity on the receiver and/or the transmitter, and baseband processing capacity within and between nodes. Continued evolution of HSPA and LTE technology will drive macro network efficiency through specialized features, such as higher-order modulation, higher sectorization, and multi-carrier and multi-antenna solutions, as well as spectrum refarming, using hybrid radio solutions. Increasing capacity and data rates in this way does not require new sites.

    Densify the macro network the capacity and data rates achieved by
    enhancing the macro network alone, will eventually be insufficient to meet demand. The targeted addition of cells strategically located can improve capacity. This approach keeps the total number of sites relatively low, while network performance becomes less sensitive to traffic location. A simple way to densify a network could be a cell-split, which enables a site from transitioning to a six-sector site from a three,sector site. These strategic cells could use macro equipment, or even micro equipment.

    Add small cells by complementing macro cells with small cells and dedicated
    indoor solutions, based on the 3GPP standard. This approach can include the use of micro cells, pico cells or low-power remote radio units (RRUs), as well as Wi-Fi. It delivers high per-user capacity and rate coverage in areas covered by the small cells, with the potential to improve performance in the macro network by offloading traffic generated in hotspots. The degree of integration that can be achieved throughout the Heterogeneous Network will determine the overall network performance.

    Cell coordination
    TO A HIGH-QUALITY MOBILE USER EXPERIENCE

    In a Heterogeneous Network (Hetnet), the coordination between macro cells and small cells has a positive impact on the performance of the radio network, and consequently on the overall user experience.

    Macro base station

    Small cell base station

    Macro for downlink, micro for uplink


    In the imbalance area, the downlink signal from the macro is the strongest, because it transmits at a much higher power, whereas the uplink signal from the pico node is much stronger, because it is closer. This provides the user with significantly higher uplink speeds than would be possible with macro coverage alone.

    Coordination between the macro and small cells enables close cooperation on cell selection in areas of signal-strength imbalance.
