FDD SUL.
Sub-6 GHz indicates frequency bands ranging from 3 GHz to 6 GHz. 3GPP defines the n77, n78,
and n79 bands as sub-6 GHz.
mmWave indicates millimeter wave bands. 3GPP defines the n257, n258, and n260 bands as
mmWave.
SUL is used to implement the UL and DL Decoupling feature. When UL and DL Decoupling is
configured, the SUL frequency band N83/N82 requires 10 MHz bandwidth resources, and the
frequency band N80/N84/N86 requires 15 MHz/20 MHz bandwidth resources.
For detailed spectrum, see 4.1 Appendix 1: NR Spectrum List.
When multiple SUL cells are configured, the SUL cells must be configured with the same number of
receive antennas and same bandwidth.
When multiple NR TDD sub-6 GHz cells are established on one baseband processing board, the
bandwidths and transmit and receive modes must be consistent for cells and the CPRI/eCPRI
interface types must be consistent for modules.

A mmWave sector consists of multiple cells. In SRAN15.0 or SRAN15.1, a single sector supports a
maximum of four cells.

For details of the Huawei control plane reference traffic model, see 2.7.3 NR Traffic Model.
If GSM is configured with 72 TRXs (S24/24/24), each TRX can be configured with only one
SDCCH. If GSM is configured with 24 TRXs (S8/8/8), each TRX can be configured with three
SDCCHs.
Common NodeB Application Protocol (CNBAP) indicates the signaling traffic of a NodeB over the
Iub interface. The NodeB application part (NBAP) is defined in 3GPP specifications, and one
CNBAP indicates one radio link (RL) establishment procedure.
In a typical GL, UL, or GUL scenario where the signaling specifications of GSM and UMTS remain
unchanged, LTE signaling specifications (BHCA) of the main control board are affected after LTE
NB-IoT is available. LTE FDD and LTE NB-IoT share LTE signaling processing specifications of
the main control board. On commercial networks, it is recommended that 30% of LTE signaling
processing specifications be allocated to LTE NB-IoT.
