ETSI - GR MWT 015

Frequency Bands and Carrier Aggregation Systems; Band and Carrier Aggregation

active, Most Current
Organization: ETSI
Publication Date: 1 November 2017
Status: active
Page Count: 22
scope:

The present document describes the "Bands and Carrier Aggregation" (BCA) concept, along with associated use cases and benefits for transport networks.

A specific clause deals with technological advancements related to BCA, such as multi-band antennas and wideband RF components.

Another aspect is related to possible barriers to the adoption of BCA in the existing standards/regulations or to proposals for incentives and discounts in the frequency licensing when BCA is implemented, due to its benefits in terms of efficient spectrum usage.

It should be noted that the BCA concept described in the present document is not referred to "Channel aggregation" system as described in ETSI EN 302 217-4 [i.3]. In fact BCA represents a much wider scope, only one of the possible BCA arrangements being a "channel aggregation" system.
