| The objective of this workshop is to address the issues of WiMAX time division duplex (TDD) technology sharing the 2.5 – 2.69 GHz band with frequency-division duplex (FDD) systems, such as UMTS, as well as legacy systems, such as multichannel multipoint distribution systems (MMDS). The topics that will be addressed are: | ||
|
• Division of the 2.5 GHz band to FDD and TDD blocks according to ECC Decision (05)05; • Interference scenarios and block boundaries; • The importance and feasibility of block edge masks; • Coexistence methodologies; • Beamforming and MIMO; • The role of restricted channels; • Micro and pico base station deployment; • Flexibility of the FDD and TDD block allocation; • Border issues; • Collocated vs. non-collocated base stations; • Issues in the 3.5 GHz and 700 MHz frequency bands; • Impact of wider bandwidths (10 and 20 MHz); • Legacy systems (MMDS) |
