Interview with Dave Williams

Dave Williams, former Chief Technology Officer, Telefónica Europe, discusses femtocell technology - base stations which allow mobile phone users to make calls inside their homes via their Internet broadband connection.

Femtocells are designed to improve indoor 3G mobile-broadband coverage by re-routing data from cellular networks and onto wired DSL connections, building cellular coverage from the inside out.

Dave outlines some of the main challanges the technology faces if it's going to be a success, including simplicity of installation and distribution for the customer.
