A multiband network comprises the
networks of different frequency bands.
In a multiband network, the BSC should
support the cell reselection and handover of MSs between different frequency
bands.
The following network topologies are
applicable to a multiband network:
·
Independent MSC
network topology
The
network of each frequency band has an independent MSC, and different networks
are connected through the MSCs.
·
Co-MSC
independent BSC network topology
The
network of each frequency band has an independent BSC, and different networks
are connected through the same MSC.
·
Co-BSC network
topology
The
network of each frequency band has independent cells, and these cells are
connected to the same BSC.
