Abstract :

Femtocell networks and small–cells have been introduced as a solution to the indoor coverage problems, since they increase the networks coverage and capacity, and reduce both cost and power. This paper presents the study of UMTS cellular network for capacity in presence of femtocell interference. Coverage and capacity are vitally important issues in UMTS cellular Network. Capacity depends on different parameters such as, energy per bit noise spectral density ratio, voice activity factor, inter cell interference and intra–cell interference, soft handoff gain factor, etc. The coverage depends on frequency, chip rate, bit rate, mobile maximum power, MS Antenna Gain, EIRP, interference Margin, Noise figure, etc. In this paper, the outputs of simulation show the effect of the mentioned parameters on the capacity of the UMTS network. Also the present of interference from the small femtocells on overall an capacity of the UMTS Network is studied.
