What is the spectrum bandwidth of B3 LTE?

[evantkh]

Does anyone in B3 area know/can check?

Well I found this out, that 4g in the UK use these three bands..

Band 20 (800MHz)
Band 3 (1800MHz)
Band 7 (2600MHz)

That was from this thread here http://community.o2.co.uk/t5/Discussions-Feedback/Interesting-Article-on-4G-in-the-UK/m-p/967266/hig...

Although I've no idea locally what'll be used, maybe a call to cs on 202 will help but they mightn't know either tbh.

To my knowledge O2 operates on the following bands:

2G: 900MHz & 1800MHz
3G: 900MHz & 2100MHz
4G: 800MHz

Last I knew O2 has started deploying B3 LTE recently.

Band something only indicates the bands used, not the bandwidth(in 2 x ? MHz).

Actually it is talked about in that post, but not showing O2 B3 bandwidth.

@evantkh O2 have started to deploy 4G over the 1800MHz band, however the exact level of coverage is unknown.

Based on historical available data the bandwidth was 2 × 5.8 (so 2 blocks of 5.8Mhz of paired spectrum)

It is even smaller than the current B20 bandwidth.

It seems O2 will run into a network jam if O2 stops data compression with respect to number of subscribers and capacity.

How is that TDD spectrum used?
