The page provides frequency to UARFCN and vice versa conversion equation. It provides link to online calculator for the same.
UARFCN stands for UTRA Absolute Radio Frequency Channel Number mainly used for UMTS/WCDMA system to convert frequency in different bands to UARFCN number and vice versa.
Frequency to UARFCN conversion Equation
UARFCN in the downlink = 5* (Downlink Frequency- FDL_Offset)
UARFCN in the uplink = 5* (Uplink Frequency- FUL_Offset)
UARFCN to frequency conversion Equation
Downlink Frequency = FDL_Offset + 0.2*(Downlink UARFCN)
Uplink Frequency = FUL_Offset + 0.2*(Uplink UARFCN)
