How many times....

I trying to figure out how much mire data a full 3 band lte site would be compared to 3g. 800/1900 Lte what 12x each over evdo? 24x for the td-lte? That would be 1+12+12+24 or 49x what I am used to.

Maximum bandwidth of a single EV-DO carrier is ~3.2 Mbps. Three sectors/carrier makes that ~9.6 Mbps.

 

Maximum bandwidth of a single 5x5 FDD-LTE carrier is ~37 Mbps. Three sectors/carrier makes that ~111 Mbps. Multiply that by two (as Sprint has a 5x5 on 1900 MHz PCS G Block and a 5x5 on 800 ESMR), to get ~222 Mbps.

 

I have no idea what the bandwidth of a 20 MHz 3:2 TDD-LTE carrier is. Someone else will have to answer that (so I can memorize the answer and how the math works).

 

It's difficult to assign a "multiplier" to this, as different cell sites have differing numbers of EV-DO carriers.

I covered the basic 20 MHz TDD math a few weeks ago in this post:

Don't forget to add in a bit for the voice carriers

Welp, I'm gonna need to know how much bandwidth a 1X carrier has now...

Aha! Exactly what I needed. So ~222 Mbps + (90 Mbps) * 3 [we're still splitting in to three sectors, right?] = ~492 Mbps. So that's ~51.2 times more bandwidth than a single EV-DO carrier.

 

Edit: I suppose I should update my math for proper sigfigs. (37.5) * 3 * 2 + (90.0) * 3 = 495, or ~51.6 times.

Ah, but that total is like simultaneous orgasm on all carriers and airlinks.  And we know that never occurs in the real world.

Wireless nerd porn? :P

 

So, what could we expect for "reliable" backhaul to tri-band Sprint sites? We're still short of 500 Mbps, even with all that, and there's almost never a situation where, like you said, you can get maximum speed on everything at once. So 400 Mbps? I couldn't even begin to estimate. Apparently 100 Mbps is good enough for a 5x5 + EV-DO + 1X.

Still don't have EVDO and 1xA traffic in there, so toss on a few more Mbps

Well, the original question was how many times over "3G EV-DO", which as I pointed out early, is difficult to figure out, as sites have differing numbers of EV-DO carriers. So, I just calculated LTE compared to a single EV-DO carrier. 1X and 1XA aren't going to change that number much, maybe not even within a sigfig - and again, different sites may have different number of 1X 1900 carriers.

    • Was able to install the March 1 Android security patch. Seems slightly more accurate with 5g ca band id, but can not swear by it. Updated google play system update through the software information screen to March 1. *#73# still works. Froze updates waiting on SCP update beta to fix n41 showing as n38.
    • Just installed it. Thanks for the info.  71 mb mar 1st date.
    • There's a permit for a new 47 story building at 205 Montague St in Downtown Brooklyn. The problem is that  T-Mobile eNB 48352 is on the building next door and this new building will block two out of 3 sectors of the site. For reference, the new building will be roughly as tall as 16 Court St which is right across the street. This site is the primary site covering Cadman Plaza so I wonder what the plan is. Will they just try to change sector placement, move to a different building, or will this just speed up the conversion of the Sprint site at 25 Monroe Place?
    • At least not recently.  I think I might have seen this a year ago.  Not Sure.
    • Did they previously hop between n38 and n41 in prior version of SCP, or have you always seen n41 displayed properly?
