Spectrum Estimation of Mobile Services

Report ITU-R M.2078 (2006) presents the results of the calculation of spectrum requirements for RAT Group 1 (pre-IMT, IMT-2000 and itsenhancements) and RAT Group 2 (IMT-Advanced) in 2010, 2015 and

.

Remark: RAT Group 3: Existing radio LANs and their enhancementsRAT Group 4: Digital mobile broadcasting systems and their enhancements

H

NOTE: When more than one network is present in a country, the total spectrum requirement may be

higher in order to account for packaging the spectrum (integer multiples of 40 MHz for RATG1)

L

How much additional spectrum is needed ?

ITU is the leading United Nations agency for information and communication technologies.s e g o a oca po n or governmen s an e pr va e sec or, s ro e n e p ng e

world communicate spans 3 core sectors: Radiocommunication, Standardization and

Development. ITU is based in Geneva, Switzerland, and its membership includes 191Member States and more than 700 Sector Members and Associates.

Radio Assembly (RA)

The Radio Assembly meets prior to each World Radio Conference to review the structure

of the ITU-R and to make decisions on any issues that have not been resolved by the ITU-R Study Group(s) during the Study Period (between WRCs)

World Radio Conferences review the global Radio Regulations (RRs). RRs define which

services and systems can use specified spectrum bands.

Different Technologies influence Spectrum

For IMT-2000 different radiointerfaces / modulations are usedaround the world:

W-CDMA (e.g. Europe)

CDMA2000 (e.g. America) TD-SCDMA (e.g. China) OFDMA (e.g. USA)

resultin in re ional differences in

IMT-2000 enhancements (e.g. LTE) and IMT-Advanced will bring

spectrum allocation and licensing

Additional channel bandwidths (1,6 / 2,5 / 10 / 15 / 20 / 40 / 100 MHz) Resulting in variable bandwidths of (1,4 / 3,2 / 5 / 10 / 15 / 20 / 40 / 100 MHz) New modulation schemes e. . OFDMA MIMO antenna systems (e.g. 8x for BS and 4x for UE) Relaying / multi-hop networks

WRC-07: Allocated IMT Bands

Under AI 1.4 globally harmonized spectrum was identified for use by IMT. In additionto the existing 2G / 3G spectrum, various additional bands were allocated resulting in392 MHz (EU, Africa, Asia) / 428 MHz (Americas, CHN, KOR, IND, JPN, NZL, a.o.):

existing spectrum IMT candidates new allocated IMT spectrum at WRC-07 f/[GHz]

72 MHz in the band 790 862 MHz in Region 1 (EU, Africa) and 3 (Asia). Region 2

(Americas) and 9 Asian countries allocated 108 MHz in the band 698 806 MHz.100 MHz 2.3 2.4 GHz band200 MHz 3.4 3.6 GHz band: no global allocation, but accepted by many countries with

some obligations (e.g. cross-border deployment and power limitations)

A view on the timing

Global I1: Mobile Industry is working on a possible DD-2, dependent of Global / European decisions (e.g. WRC-12 / WRC-15). In the

light of the underlying processes, additional 7/800 MHz spectrum (e.g. 90 MHz) could become available 2020 onwards earliest

I2: Survey / questionnaire by EC on more liberalised use of 2 GHz (harmonised TDD-usage, technology neutrality) until 05.08.Will be answered on behalf of TEF SA by SPG. An according EC decision is planned for Q2/2012.

I3: draft harmonised 3.5 GHz bandplan for consultation until 26.08.2011 (ECC/DEC/(11)HH):

General possibilities to get access to spectrum

1. Purchase spectrum Auction: most expensive, best income for regulator Beauty contest: application with no guarantee of acceptance

- . .

2. Spectrum Refarming Re-using existing spectrum with new technologies In most European countries spectrum refarming is possible (legacy issues ?) Possible bands: 900 / 1800 MHz UMTS/LTE or 2100 MHz LTEProblem: legacy spectrum is not equally distributed amongst existing MNOs

3. Free-Up additional spectrum Try to find spectrum which is not (efficiently) used (e.g.
