Table 8
Average network capacity at 5 MHz bandwidth.
| Deployment strategy | Cell density (cells per km2) | Network capacity (Gbps/km2) |
| Homogeneous (macro-only) | | | ISD 1732 m—no B/H limitation | 3.5 | 0.02 | ISD 866 m—no B/H limitation | 13.9 | 0.10 | ISD 433 m—no B/H limitation | 55.4 | 0.43 |
| Heterogeneous (macro-femto) | | | ISD 1732 m (5% femtopenetration): | | | (i) Femtocell B/H connectivity at 4 Mbps | 160 | 0.63 | (ii) Femtocell B/H connectivity at 16 Mbps | 160 | 1.68 | (iii) Femtocell B/H connectivity at 100 Mbps | 160 | 1.68 |
