1800MHz Spectrum Band 3. There are 327 LTE or LTE-Advanced networks using 1800 MHz (Band 3) spectrum. Far more LTE networks have been deployed at 1800 MHz (band 3) than in any other frequency band. Band 3 is now widely used throughout Europe, APAC, MEA and is also deployed in selected countries in South America.
What is cell band 3?
Band 3 is an LTE operating frequency Band. LTE is designed to work across a number of frequency bands – E-UTRA operating bands- currently ranging from 450 MHz up to 3.8GHz. The available bandwidths are also flexible starting with 1.4 MHz up to 20 MHz with Carrier Aggregation allowing use of wider multiples.
What is B3 frequency?
B3 (1800 MHz) is used globally in approximately 47% of 4G LTE networks. The 1800 MHz band has the largest LTE user devices ecosystem with approximately 65% of LTE devices having the ability operate in band 3 spectrum. B3 is the core band for LTE systems in Europe, Asia, and other ITU regions.
Which is better band 3 or band 40?
Reliance Jio uses Bands 3(1800MHz FDD), 5(850MHz FDD) and 40(2300MHz TDD). Band 40 provides better bandwidth and band 5 provides coverage in remote/rural areas as well as indoors where higher frequency signals cannot penetrate.
