One of the bands allocated to LTE is, amongst others, the band 1 (uplink: \SIrange{1920}{1980}{MHz}, uplink: \SIrange{2110}{2170}{MHz}). The range of one LTE base station is a few kilometres. + + However, the HF band (\SIrange{3}{30}{MHz}) has the advantage that waves are reflected by the ionosphere and can propagate over longer distances or even across the whole world. Mostly, narrow-band services like AM broadcasting or amateur radio are allocated to the HF band. + + Why is it pointless to use the HF band for LTE? +\end{question} + +\begin{solution} + Reasons: + \begin{enumerate} + \item Band capacity: + \begin{itemize} + \item HF band is only \SI{27}{MHz} wide. + \item In contrast, the UHF band is \SI{2700}{MHz} wide. + \item One LTE base station would occupy the whole HF band. + \item LTE base stations should only have a limited range. One base station can only service a limited number of users. + \item Increasing the cell coverage will decrease the number of users and the data rate. + \item \textbf{That's why high data rate services use higher frequencies.} + \end{itemize} + \item Antenna size + \begin{itemize} + \item The antenna size is proportional to the wave length. For example, a $\lambda/2$-dipole measures the half of the wave length. + \item HF band wave length: \SI{10}{100}{m} + \item UHF band wave length: \SI{0.1}{1}{m} + \item UHF antennas are much smaller. They must fit into a cell phone. + \item \textbf{The higher the frequencies, the more compact the antennas and devices.} + \end{itemize} + \end{enumerate} +\end{solution} + +\begin{question}[subtitle={OSI Layers}] What is the difference between a \emph{digital communication system} and a \emph{service}?
