UTRA FDD Frequency Bands (UMTS band, WCDMA Band)

3GPP has defined a number of paired frequency bands in which a UMTSterminal, based on the UTRA FDD (W-CDMA) mode can operate. These bands are described in the following table.

Band number	Name	Uplink (MHz)	Downlink (MHz)	Remarks
I	UMTS2100	1920 - 1980	2110 - 2170	IMT-2000 / UMTS Core band

IV	UMTS1700	1710 - 1755	2110 - 2155	Pairing with the core band
V	UMTS850	824 - 849	869 - 894	For the USA
