* Bell/Telus in Canada share a single RAN and all of their spectrum. It's fairly redundant to list them separately, since they operate as one shared network with exactly the same coverage and spectrum.

I see that another user asked for a list of inaccuracies on this page. A few that I noticed:

  • China Mobile never used UMTS/HSPA. TD-SCDMA is a separate standard, and is not the same thing as TD-HSDPA or UMTS. They created TD-SCDMA in the first place because they didn't want to pay licensing fees for UMTS/HSPA.

A few questions I had:

  • Why is Cellular (CLR) referred to as 850MHz when it's used for LTE/5G, and 800MHz when it's used for CDMA? It's exactly the same frequencies. Seems inconsistent and will confuse people.
  • Why is 2.5GHz referred to as 2.5GHz when used in the US and China, but "2.6GHz IMT-E" when used by other countries? The frequencies are the same. The Canadian government refers to the spectrum as 2.5GHz BRS. There's no difference in frequency between band 7 and band 41. The only difference is that one is FDD and one is TDD.
  • Bell/Telus in Canada share a single RAN and all of their spectrum. It's fairly redundant to list them separately, since they operate as one shared network with exactly the same coverage and spectrum.
