FREQUENCY --> EARFCN CALCULATOR

STEPS: 1. ENTER UPLINK AND DOWNLINK FREQs AT POINTS A AND B (IN MHz)
2. IF FREQS LIE WITHIN MULTIPLE BANDS (INDICATED AT C), ENTER BAND NO AT D
3. READ UPLINK AND DOWNLINK EARFCNs AT POINTS E AND F RESPECTIVELY

Uplink Freq [MHz]: 2557.5 A Selected frequencies lie


EARFCN CALCULATION

Downlink Freq [MHz]: 2677.5 B within multiple bands

C Please enter desired band here (use table 5.7.3-1 For reference) --->

5.7.3 Carrier Freq & EARFCN - (Extract 3GPP TS 36.101 version 10.5.0 Release 10)*

EARF Channel Number (Nu and Nd for uplink and downlink respectively) are defined as:
Uplink Nu = 10 * (FUL - FUL_low) + Noffs-UL, where FUL_low ≤ FUL ≤ FUL_high
Downlink Nd = 10 * (FDL - FDL_low) + Noffs-UL, where FDL_low ≤ FDL ≤ FDL_high
