This paper explores the trade-offs of different levels of access control in a mixed femtocell-macrocell deployment with focus on reverse link (uplink) outage analysis. The aim is to identify and evaluate criteria that will help operators to assess the impact of allowing different degrees of access for macrocell users onto femtocells, and suggest some schemes that will be useful in this regard.
