LTE TDD Channel Number Ranges
The carrier frequency in the uplink and downlink is designated by the E-UTRA Absolute Radio Frequency
Channel Number (EARFCN) in the range 0 – 65535. The relation between EARFCN and the carrier
frequency in MHz for the downlink is given by the following equation, where FDL_low and NOffs-DL are
given in table 5.4.4–1 and NDL is the downlink EARFCN.
FDL = F 0.1(NDL – NOffs-DL)
The relation between EARFCN and the carrier frequency in MHz for the uplink is given by the following
equation where FUL_low and NOffs-UL are given in table 5.4.4–1 and NUL is the uplink EARFCN.
FUL = F 0.1(NUL – NOffs-UL)

Note: The channel numbers that designate carrier frequencies so close to the operating band edges that the carrier extends
beyond the operating band edge shall not be used. This implies that the first 7, 15, 25, 50, 75 and 100 channel numbers at the
lower operating band edge and the last 6, 14, 24, 49, 74 and 99 channel numbers at the upper operating band edge shall not
be used for channel bandwidths of 1.4, 3, 5, 10, 15 and 20 MHz respectively.
TDSCDMA Channel Number Ranges
1.28 Mcps TDD Option
No TX-RX frequency separation is required as Time Division Duplex (TDD) is employed. Each subframe
consists of 7 main timeslots where all main timeslots (at least the first one) before the single switching
point are allocated DL and all main timeslots (at least the last one) after the single switching point are
allocated UL.
The nominal channel spacing is 1.6 MHz, but this can be adjusted to optimise performance in a particular
deployment scenario.
The carrier frequency is designated by the UTRA absolute radio frequency channel number (UARFCN). The
value of the UARFCN in the IMT2000 band is defined in the general case as follows:
