Abstract
We show that for any Fell bundle A over a locally compact group G, there is a natural coaction δ of G on the Fell-bundle C*-algebra C*(G,A) such that the full crossed product (C*(G,A) \rtimesδ G) \rtimes\hat{δ} G by the dual action \hatδ of G is canonically isomorphic to C*(G,A)⊗K(L2(G)). Hence the coaction δ is maximal.
