As operators grapple with data demand in 2011, the deployment of small cells to increase coverage, capacity, spectral efficiency and customer satisfaction will become a major weapon on the operators’ side. This will be even more the case for technologies such as LTE that use new or re-farmed spectrum.

So how can operators use small cells to their best advantage in 4G networks? What are the benefits of adopting a heterogeneous approach to mobile broadband network design? What are the business models that enable or demand small cell deployment? What examples have there been to date, and where will operators head in 2011?

Join this live debate to find out, and to contribute your own opinions and queries.
