Portable, personal 3G base stations to shrink, play a big role in 4G LTE network rollouts

Over the past two years, telecommunications carriers have come to endorse, and even sell, portable base stations called femtocells (or, depending up on the vendor, picocells or microcells) used to boost wireless 3G signals to smart phones and other wireless devices in areas where network coverage is poor. New developments in femtocells--essentially desktop cell phone towers used in homes and offices to enhance a signal within a 10- to 200-meter radius around the device--are expected to shrink down the technology from the size of a book to that of a USB thumb drive no more than a few centimeters long and play a significant role in the adoption of 4G networks.
