ADDITIONAL WCDMA CARRIER DEPLOYMENT
The aim of the document is to serve as an aid in the analysis and deployment process of an additional WCDMA carrier. The document provides guidelines on how to introduce the additional WCDMA carrier. The information is based on various field tests performed in live networks and theoretical carrier configuration for a WCDMA network
