Handover procedure between macrocell and femtocell for long term evolution (LTE) based network / Nor Shairah Aina Mohamad Saed
Long Term Evolution (LTE) is a new technology which is moving forward from the cellular 3G services. LTE is expected to reduce delays, increased user data rates, increased cell-edge-bit-rate and smoothen mobility with deployed Home eNodeB (HeNB). Femtocell which is also known as home base station is...
