Abstract
The invention relates to a multi-carrier base station and a method performed at the multi-carrier base station configured to enable wireless access to wireless communication terminals. In an aspect, a device is provided configured to provide wireless communication access to wireless communication terminals. The device comprises a Base Transceiver Station (BTS), configured to be connectable to a core network, a tethering access point, and at least one antenna. The BTS is configured to provide at least a first carrier via the at least one antenna for Third Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) wireless access, and further to provide the tethering access point via a wired connection with at least a second carrier exclusively used by the tethering access point for 3GPP access. Moreover, the tethering access point is configured to provide non-3GPP wireless access via the at least one antenna.
