Calculation of Uplink and Downlink from ARFCN

The carrier frequency of an uplink channel can be calculated using the ARFCN(Absolute Radio Frequency Channel Number) according to the formula:

• fuplink = Start frequency + (ARFCN - Offset)*0.2 MHz

The lower bound of a downlink band conforms to the following formula:

• fdownlink = fuplink + Band distance
