FDD vs TDD comparison

[mohammed Gh.]

Dear Experts,
In terms of power calculations, link budget, and cell coverage, can you tell which duplexing technology is better considering the FDD band is 2.6GHz and TDD band is 2.3GHz.
for more details, I'm in phase of deploying TDD network, and when I start doing bench mark for local market, figure out that our vendor initial RF plan has double Number of site comparing to other FDD competitors, the vendor explanation is the footprint of TDD less than FDD. So please i want you to guide me based on your knowledge and experience.

your continuous help is highly appreciated.

We have TDD & FDD in our network, The solution provided for TDD is very complex and has Maximum 10W Transmit power only that's why the requirement for sites is much more compared to FDD.
