This document defines the functionalities for the support
of Home NodeBs (HNB) and Home eNodeBs (HeNB) – jointly referred to as H(e)NB –
including the functionalities to support Closed Subscriber Groups (CSG) as
currently defined in 3GPP. It is intended as a one stop guide to provide an
overview of the current status of the standards for operators and manufacturers
interested in the deployment of H(e)NBs including references to where more
details on each subject can be found. The contents of the document include the
following:
· Description of the existing
procedures relating to H(e)NBs specified for Rel-9.
· Discussion of some details
relating to H(e)NBs which may be considered out of scope of the 3GPP standards
but are needed to achieve a successful H(e)NB deployment. Read Further AT:
