1. A method for enhancing usable bandwidth between an access point of a radio access network of a telecommunications network and a User Equipment of a subscriber of the telecommunications network, the method comprising:

  • transmitting and/or receiving, by an antenna device of the access point, radio frequency signals to and/or from the User Equipment, wherein the User Equipment and the access point are configured to mutually communicate based on a standardized mobile communication technology using carrier aggregation of at least a first communication carrier having a first carrier frequency and a second communication carrier having a second carrier frequency, wherein the first communication carrier and the second communication carrier are aggregated according to a carrier aggregation scheme to provide an enhanced usable bandwidth between the User Equipment and the access point, and wherein the first carrier frequency is a standardized and licensed frequency and is related to the standardized mobile communication technology;

    wherein the transmitting and/or receiving comprises;

    during a first time interval, transmitting and/or receiving radio frequency signals on the second carrier frequency according to the standardized mobile communication technology or according to an alternative standardized mobile communication technology; and

    during a second time interval, transmitting and/or receiving radio frequency signals on the second carrier frequency according to a further mobile communication technology;

    wherein the first time interval and the second time interval are alternating;

    wherein the second carrier frequency is a frequency or frequency band in a frequency range selected from the group consisting of;

    from 6.765 to 6.795 MHz, from 13.553 to 13.567 MHz, from 26.957 to 27.283 MHz, from 40.66 to 40.70 MHz, from 433.05 to 434.79 MHz, from 902 to 928 MHz, from 2.400 to 2.500 GHz, from 5.72.5 to 5.875 GHz, from 24.00 GHz to 24.25 GHz, from 61.0 GHz to 61.5 GHz, from 122 GHz to 123 GHz and from 244 GHz to 246 GHz.
