* Interim report for IMT-2000 by MPT in Sept. 1999

W-CDMA and cdma2000 have been recommended.


* 60 x 2 MHz has been allocated for IMT-2000.

* 5 MHz band adjacent with PHS will not assigned initially due to

interference.

* 3 operators will licensed for IMT-2000 by beauty contest and not

by auction.

* Initially 5 MHz band will be assigned to each operator and

up to 15 MHz will be added depending upon deployment status.

* 20 MHz will be assigned finally after resolving the interference.
