Seriously - you going to turn up a radio over the Hypervisor on AWS? That is what most people mean by "The Cloud". This is very different where computing is remoted and connected via high bandwidth interfaces. Also, capabilities are tunable...but Cloud based...I don't think so.
Isn't ALU packaging femtocells as lightRadio and offer cloud management of these array of femtocells - "...antenna that can be mounted on poles, sides of buildings or anywhere else there is power and a broadband connection"
it is naturally for people to link LightRadio with Femto-like or WiFi-like for the similar features . or some extensions of those. but we're hoping it will be beyond those.
Going farther, we're expecting that true dynamic configurable Base station or even roaming base station tech is coming(so that the base stations can "gather" with some high population-density event and scatter after that). and those mobile base stations can join network cloud anywhere that power network is available(IP over power line).

That is the bullet that you need to pay attention to. AT&T came at me a few times trying to remote the DSP infrastructure from the analog interfaces. The goal is to lower the amount of power and simplify the ability to change of DSP engines by centralizing them. Problem is that this requires huge bandwidth and very low latency attachment.
