Notes

  1. 1.

    1 FLO also supports Multiple Frequency Network deployment

  2. 2.

    2 The chip rates for 5, 7 and 8 MHz RF channel bandwidths are 4.625, 6.475 and 7.4MHz, respectively

  3. 3.

    3 The Physical Layer data rates for all the RF channel bandwidths supported by FLO are listed in the Appendix

  4. 4.

    4 The maximum channel multipath delay spread in chips that can be estimated in an OFDM system is limited by the number of FDM pilot subcarrier observations (FFT outputs corresponding to the pilot)

  5. 5.

    5 Note it should not be confused with the Physical Layer data channel
