3.8.7 Configure Carrier Setting
Reference:
Carrier Aggregation & Dual Carrier (Split Mode) Configuration Guide
The BTS Setting > Carrier Setting sub-menu is used only in the two-carrier Nova846 eNB as shown
in Figure 3-21. Click the arrow in the Carrier Mode field to view the drop-down menu. You can set
the eNB to run as a single carrier, as two combined carriers using CA, or as two independent carriers
using Dual Carrier (DC)/split mode, depending on which licenses you have purchased. Single carrier
(no CA) means only Cell 1 operates, and it uses only two RF ports instead of four. Operators may
need to use this mode if they have limited spectrum or are planning to change to CA or DC mode
at a later time when more capacity is needed for the coverage area.
If you set the Carrier Mode to Dual Carrier, you have the option to enable the CA mode by clicking
the Carrier Aggregation Enabled checkbox (not shown in Figure 3-21). If you want to use DC mode,
do not click the Carrier Aggregation Enabled checkbox.
Whenever you change the carrier setting, you must reboot the eNB for the change to take effect.
