release frequencies for
UMTS
Poor or No fixed

GSM900 MHz network is main

income and 900 MHz spectrum for

Advantage:
when Refarming the GSM frequencies into a

new UMTS carrier, no impact on the current
UMTS carrier.
Disadvantage:
GSM900
UMTS900 GSM900 (other

operator)
the frequency gap, f1, should be 2.4MHz in

urban area and 2.2MHz in rural area.
A frequency gap f2 of 2.6MHz should be

reserved between UMTS carrier and the
adjacent GSM carrier of other operator.

Excellent UMTS900 test result

"Within three months of trial, Huawei and
Optus built and tested a UMTS900 network.
The trial is an achievement that we are very
proud of. In particular, Huawei was able to
deliver in the timeframe we required."
Henry Calvert, Director, Mobile Products at
Optus.
Optus deploy UMTS900 on 4.2M frequency band extracted from GSM900.

UMTS900 Commercial Network in Optus, Australia
First & Largest U900 Network
CASE: Optus, Australia
Scenario: Rural
900Mhz Spectrum:
Spectrum after refarming
8Mhz
4.2MHz
RX: 898.6~906.6
TX: 943.6~951.6
GSM Site Configuration:
S322
Challenge to Spectrum Bandwidth

3MHz can not hold GSM
existing capacity requirement if
UMTS900 occupy 5Mhz
bandwidth.
Negligent Impacts to legacy GSM
4 GSM carriers added, 1000 subscribers /

cell cluster more than that of 5Mhz solution
less than 3% GSM coverage contracted
