Device can extend covering of the cellular telephony in building

A new technology to extend the covering of nets of cellular in the interior of buildings must arrive at the market of mass in less of one year, said a manufacturer. Diverse companies are developing the calls “femtocells”, small station-base domestic for nets of mobile telephony of third generation (3G), what she would allow the operators to improve the covering in the interior of buildings for a sufficiently inferior cost to the one of the traditional system, that involves the installation of new towers of cellular telephony. The devices are on to the connection of Internet broad band of the user, as a station-base for access to the Internet without wire, and allow that the users make linkings or use services of cellular data using its common ones, said Andy Tiller, vice-president of marketing of ip.access, a British manufacturer of “femtocells”. The operators of mobile telephony could, of this form, to serve users of buildings for low costs and the done calls saw “femtocells” could cost more cheap to stimulate the consumers to use its cellular telephones instead of the fixed line, said it. “The system can encourage to the substitution fixture-furniture”, said Tiller during a conference on convergence between fixed and mobile telephony, in Amsterdã. However, operators of telephony need to find reasons convincing so that the consumers use a device of this type, that initially will cost to the operator more than 150 euros for unit (US$ 200), according to Tiller.
