| Abstract |
This paper describes the economic and environmental comparative analysis performed on macro and femtocell deployments and most prevalent results obtained. Four specific scenarios are studied and, for each one, an evaluation is made in terms of network capacity, cost effectiveness and expected carbon emissions on the environmental side. It provides mobile networks operators (MNO) with novel relevant information, enabling them to adapt business models and deployment approaches to current and future trends in a sustainable way, while minimizing capital (CAPEX) and operational expenditure (OPEX). It is verified that the scenario is mandatory to the best option macro-femtocell. |
