2 Introduction to Flexi Zone Indoor Pico BTS
The Flexi Zone Indoor Pico BTS is a small cell optimized for an indoor environment. The
Flexi Zone Indoor Pico BTS provides seamless mobility and enhanced user experience
in enterprise and public indoor locations by cost effectively improving the coverage and
capacity of the network, delivering the best subscriber mobile broadband experience.
The main application of this BTS is to deliver an improved mobile broadband experience
by offloading data traffic from macro networks. Thanks to its small size and a fanless
solution, the BTS can be easily and quickly deployed in strategic locations to add
coverage and capacity. The Flexi Zone Indoor Pico BTS features a compact single
enclosure.
The Flexi Zone Pico is a fully compliant 3GPP solution and supports standard network
interfaces to other network elements, such as S1 and X2 in LTE and Iub interface
towards a controller in WCDMA. It allows the use of the same software as used in macro
base stations and can easily integrate into Heterogenous Networks (HetNets).
The hardware platform supports full throughput capability of 5 (only FDD), 10, 15, or 20
MHz LTE carriers with 2x2 MIMO (LTE main and diversity transmit). The WCDMA
version supports 5 MHz bandwidth with 2Tx2Rx at BTS side and Virtual Antenna
Mapping solution. The physical transport interface is optimized for IP-based transport
solutions. Furthermore, the BTS supports varying transmit power up to 250 mW per
antenna branch.
