What is channel bandwidth in LTE?

In 3GPP the channel bandwidth is defined as the occupied bandwidth of a modulated waveform which corresponds to the frequency range containing 99% of the total power of the modulated signal . An LTE-M-U narrowband of 6 PRBs have a 1.4 MHz channel bandwidth according to this definition which is reused by ETSI.

What is carrier aggregation 4G+?

Carrier Aggregation (CA) is a feature of LTE-Advanced that allows mobile operators & devices to combine two or more LTE carriers into a single data change . It leads to an increase in the capacity of the network and the data rates by exploiting fragmented spectrum allocations.

What is carrier aggregation in 5G?

Carrier Aggregation is the foundation for deploying high-performing 4G and 5G networks . It provides the unique capability of aggregating several frequency bands for higher peak rates and increased cell coverage. Ericsson offers an industry-leading portfolio of Carrier Aggregation features for both 4G and 5G.

What is CA band class?

CA Bandwidth Class Definition It means that total aggregated RB should be less than 100 . Following shows some example cases which is allowed and not allowed configuration. Case 1 : PCC = 10 Mhz (max 50 RB), SCC = 10 Mhz (max 50 RB). It would give max aggregated RB is 50 RB +50 RB which is <= 100. So this is allowed.
