Study Notes
NR Channel Bandwidth
- FR1 frequency band: 450 MHz – 6000 MHz, supported channel bandwidths: 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 40, 50, 60, 80, 90, 100 MHz
- FR2 frequency band: 24250 MHz – 52600 MHz, supported channel bandwidths: 50, 100, 200, 400 MHz
- Maximum transmission bandwidth: 6.4 GHz (16 x 400 MHz)
Carrier Aggregation (CA)
- Supported: intra-band CA (within a frequency band) and inter-band CA (across frequency bands)
- Inter-band CA with different numerologies is also supported
Bandwidth Part (BWP)
- Concept introduced in NR for energy efficiency
- UEs can operate in narrow bandwidth and switch to wider bandwidth when needed
- Maximum 4 BWP configurations for DL and UL, but only one is active at a time
- BWP is a contiguous set of resource blocks on a given carrier
- BWP parameters: Numerology (μ), BWP bandwidth size, Frequency location (NR-ARFCN), CORESET
Spectrum Management & Planning
- Spectrum bands: Low Bands (600, 700, 800, 900, 1800, 2100, 2300, 2500 MHz), Mid Band (3300-3670 MHz), Millimeter Wave Band (24.25-27.5 GHz)
- Access Frequency Bands: 600, 700, 800, 900, 1800, 2100, 2300, 2500 MHz
- Backhaul Frequency Bands: Microwave Backbone Bands (6 GHz, 7 GHz), Microwave Access Bands (13 GHz, 15 GHz, 18 GHz, 21 GHz), E band (71-76/81-86 GHz)
Spectrum Assignment
- Mode of Spectrum Assignment: Spectrum Allocations for Cellular mobile/ IMT-
- Old procedure (pre-2012): Separate applications for each stage (LOI, DL, WOL), separate applications for SACFA, Import Licence, and 3-Stage Scrutiny
