  • Patent number: 12700916
    Abstract: According to aspects herein, methods and systems for providing multiple channel bundling for mobile phone satellite cellular systems are provided. More particularly, after a node comprising at least one time division duplex (TDD) layer and a frequency division duplex (FDD) layer determines a user equipment (UE) supports dual bands, the node initiates bundling of downlink communications over the FDD layer and a portion of the TDD layer. Additionally, the node instructs the UE to communicate uplink communications over the FDD layer and not uplink slots of the TDD layer. In this way, link budget is improved because only low band (FDD) is utilized in uplink communications from the UE to the node. Moreover, additional bandwidth is provided in downlink communications from the node to the UE because low band is bundled with the downlink slots of mid band (TDD).
