All the predictions about the impending data tsunami have come to fruition for wireless operators worldwide.
Customer-focused operators are transitioning their subscriber base to 3G and 4G networks to better network experience in the most spectrally and operationally efficient manner.
Beyond adding new bandwidth and improving the quality of the network, the only way for wireless systems to offer new capacity is through adding new cells. Adding small cells to form a Hetnet will enable traffic offloading from the macrocells, resulting in better throughput for network subscribers. Most of the operators around the world are considering deploying Hetnets to address capacity demands on their networks.
