6.3.8.3 REFSENS degradation and throughput loss
For the B20 + B28A CA combination the difficult part are the receiving bands which are separated by only 3 MHz. The Tx and also ISOs to the Rx bands when combining the two bands should be relative straight forward as DL-to-UL separation is sufficient and not more stringent compared to the single band operation. Possibl...

6.3.8.4 Summary for the B20 + B28A CA
The low band aggregation of B20 + B28A is a difficult from a UE filter-combiner perspective but important CA combination for many European operators in order to give higher data rate in rural and difficult coverage areas. This follows the EC guideline to give also higher data rates to users in such areas and to make ef...
