A design guide for co-siting and sharing of Mobile Radio Access Network resources

Co-siting solutions of Mobile Radio Acces Networks resources leading to the operators to use the existing equipment, minimizing visual impact and reducing costs. In this paper, a proposal for a standardized co-siting design guide is described. It is based on the specifications and recommendations given by the 3GPP forum and the ETSI. The main goals is to promote co-sited solutions for the operators and provide the technical staff with a well defined guide of design.
