Maybe we shouldn't start using the `femto` prefix yet.
- TFortunato 9y agoCats already out of the bag on that one... The term femtocell isn't exactly new -- it's been used in the wireless world for some time now.
- madengr 9y agoOk, I'll be the first to coin attocell
- exabrial 9y agoApologies asking a dumb question, but I am curious why you would say this...?
- ZenoArrow 9y agoNot the GP, but... it has a specific meaning in the sciences: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Femto- https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Femto- I'd imagine the argument against using it is that it's being used in a less precise way. Femtocell is a name commonly used for a consumer-level device to extend a cellular network. One could argue that use of femto should have some bearing on the radio being used.
- traverseda 9y agoI misunderstood, and assumed femto refered to the board size, as compared to the original limesdr.
