With how much spacing between them? If I could put them on adjacent 10 MHz center frequencies, that would solve a lot of problems, and even 5 MHz channels with 10 MHz spacing (and thus a 5 MHz guard band) would be reasonable. But 20 MHz spacing is problematic. How much throughput can a quarter-channel get? The Rocket data sheet is not very complete; it doesn't even mention subchannel support. The RM5 spec sheet says that MCS12 has -84 dB sensitivity. That gets 78 Mbps in a full 20 Mbps channel, 162 in a double-wide, and a bit more with the short guard interval. If I could share 15 Mbps among the sector users, in 5 MHz, I think everyone should be happy. And I'd expect -89 to -90 sensitivity. >Jerry Richardson >Sent Mobile > >On Aug 4, 2010, at 12:33 PM, "Fred R.
