Transcript of Presentation fixed links
Overview
> Current Arrangements> Shared Arrangements – 2 GHz band example> Proposed options for fixed links
Current Arrangements
> Fixed services represent most apparatus licenses in 1800 MHz> Fixed services have primary status > 705 fixed service licenses (1/11/2012)
> Telstra - 85%> BHP - 4%> QR Networks – 2.5 %
> Frequency assignment performed as per RALI FX3> Embargo 62 restricts any new assignments
1800 MHz Band
Fixed Links(as of 1/11/2012)
Shared Arrangements
> Fixed link and point-to-area services can coexist in a band
> Differences in efficient assignment of services:
> Point-to-area most efficient when single licensee holds same spectrum over large area (or nationwide)
> Fixed links can share the same spectrum at the same site
> High level of usage by one/both services may result in allocation inefficiencies
Options for Fixed Links
> remain in the band as a primary service
> remain in the band as a secondary service
> relocate to a different band
> no new fixed links in the band
> implementation of either of the last two options above
Preliminary preferred approach
