What is Femtocell
A femtocell is a small cellular base station designed for use in residential or small business environments. It connects to the service providers network via broadband (such as DSL or cable) and typically supports 2 to 5 mobile phones in a residential setting. A femtocell allows service providers to extend service coverage inside of your home - especially where access would otherwise be limited or unavailable - without the need for expensive cellular towers. It also decreases backhaul costs since it routes your mobile phone traffic through the IP network.
A femtocell is sometimes referred to as a home base station, access point base station, 3G access point, small cellular base station and personal 2G-3G base station.

History of FemtoCell
According to Wikipedia In 2002, a group of engineers at Motorola in Swindon, England, started a skunkworks team, called the "AFG", to develop new technologies. Some of their major achievements included the world's smallest full-power UMTS base station, one of the first demonstrations of television to mobile, and the invention and development of the access point base station (ie. Femtocell). The original design was intended to provide a direct equivalent to a WiFi access point, but for mobile cellular (UMTS, CDMA2000 or WiMAX). The unit contained all the core network elements and did not require a cellular core network, requiring only a data connection to the Internet or WiFi core network.

Final Thoughts
These technologies are brothers and sisters. The Question is How FemtoCells will evolve along side 4G technologies such as WiMAX LTE. They will definitely be in our lives.
