The aim of BeFEMTO is to develop evolved femtocell technologies based on LTE-A that enable a cost-efficient provisioning of ubiquitous broadband services and support novel usage scenarios like networked, relay  and mobile femtocells.

The project targets both near-term and long-term solutions. With its strong industry consortium, the BeFEMTO project aims to have a real impact on the standardisation of the next generation Femtocell technologies based on LTE-A in the near term. In the long-term, the project focuses on novel concepts and usage scenarios such as self-organizing and self-optimizing Femtocell Networks, Outdoor Relay Femtocells as well as Mobile Femtocells.

•   Femtocell-based network enhancement by interference management and coordination of information for seamless connectivity.
