Maximum Output Power Per Carrier at RAU
Allowing for Future Capacity Growth
Sometimes a Unison deployment is initially used to enhance coverage. Later, that
same system may also need to provide increased capacity. Thus, the initial deploy-
ment might only transmit two carriers but need to transmit four carriers later. There
are two options for dealing with this scenario:
1.
Design the initial coverage with a maximum power per carrier for four carriers.
2.
Design the initial coverage for two carriers but leave RAU ports on the Expansion
Hubs unused. These ports can be used later if coverage holes are discovered once
the power per carrier is lowered to accommodate the two additional carriers.
