Baseband Specifications of a Multimode Base Station

In co-BBP scenarios, the baseband signals of multiple modes are processed by one baseband processing board. Co-BBP baseband
specifications described here refer to the maximum baseband specifications of a baseband processing board when it processes baseband
signals of multiple modes at the same time. For example, baseband specifications of GL co-BBP refer to the maximum baseband
specifications of a baseband processing board when it processes GSM and LTE FDD baseband signals at the same time.
The following tables provide the baseband specifications in GU, GL, UL, and GUL co-BBP scenarios, respectively.

NOTE:
In GL, UL, or GUL co-BBP scenarios, the UBBPd board does not support hybrid configuration of 1R and 4R LTE FDD cells, or 2R and 4R LTE FDD cells.
