Its been a long time since I
looked at small cells (femtocells) in India. Things have changed significantly in these last 8 years. India now has
second highest number of mobile phone users (1.2 billion), just after China.

workshop on Spectrum Sharing in 3.8 - 4.2GHz Band. This presentation provides interesting insight into Reliance Jio Small cells deployment and also provides much more details of the
Sprint MagicBox.
