Femtocells are small base stations designed for use as an ideal solution to ensure good radio coverage in the residential and corporate environments. In this paper we review LTE femtocell, LTE HeNB standard architecture and we detail our proposed architecture. It focuses more particularly on the options offered by the HeNB Energy Congestion Server (HeNB-ECS), the proposed server in our solution which manages and administers the HeNB network. We propose more options, in this sense we model the energy managed by HeNB-ECS. We also propose a general algorithm to manage the HeNB network energy and congestion in our architecture.
