Summary/Abstract: The technology of femtocell application will most likely enable reduction of costs for telecommunications provider. This paper presents the installation and use of femtocells, as well as the problems one may encounter during this process. It also offers a technical solution, with its basic characteristics and the possibility of realization at a particular location, illustrated by the example of a telecomunications provider. The possibilities of implementation of new equipment to existing mobile networks are also discussed, followed by the comparative analysis which aims at emphasizing the significant reduction of electrical energy consumption between GSM macro base stations and femtocell application.
