Q-band Point to Multipoint Backhaul Deployment: the SARABAND Case Study

This paper describes the small scale field trial deployed within the SARABAND project to provide final network performances comparable to fibre optics in a costeffective manner for the 4G small cell backhaul. The performances of the system have been measured, obtaining over 100 Mbps peak capacity and frame error rates compliant with operators’ requirements.
