“With overwhelming mobile data demand for mobile networks, small cells are becoming an important part of expanding network capacity “LTE,” said Joe Madden, principal analyst at Mobile Experts. “The femtocells of the early days are now giving way to multi-band, multi-mode small cells with which 3G, LTE, and Wi-Fi networks have to operate simultaneously without interference. The industry needs high-performance RF filters and power amplifiers for these multi-mode radio nodes to function properly.”
