ITU WRC‐15 ‐ Key Outcomes for Mobile Broadband Communications

Following the growing demand for spectrum for mobile broadband services, WRC‐15 identified frequency bands in the L‐band (1427‐1518 MHz) and in the lower part of the C‐band (3.4 ‐3.6 GHz). WRC‐15 achieved agreement on some additional portions in other bands that were also allocated to mobile broadband services in order to be used in regions where there was no interference with othermobile broadband services in order to be used in regions where there was no interference with other services.

To counteract the difficulties encountered in finding additional spectrum for IMT in bands below 6 GHz, WRC‐15 decided to include studies in the agenda for the next WRC in 2019 for the identification of bands above 6 GHz that will allow technology to meet demand for greater capacity. Administrations and industry can now concentrate on the development of necessary technologies in line with the schedule for the implementation of IMT‐2020line with the schedule for the implementation of IMT 2020

WRC‐15 took a key decision that will provide enhanced capacity for mobile broadband in the 694‐790 MHz frequency band in ITU Region‐1 (Europe, Africa, the Middle East and Central Asia) and a globally harmonized solution for the implementation of the digital dividend. Full protection has been given to television broadcasting as well as to the aeronautical radionavigation systems operating in this frequency band.

700MHz in Europe (CEPT 700MHz)

EU: Subsequent to the outcomes of WRC‐15 in Nov 2015, the European Commission has made decision in Feb 2016 on the use of the 470‐790 MHz frequency band:

1. 700MHz Band (694‐790MHz)

Use of the 700 MHz frequency band for wireless broadband together with spectrum in the 800 MHz and 900 MHz frequency bands would boost mobile network capacity at least 30 Mb/s per user within a representative competitive 3‐4 operator market

Having 2020 as the common deadline for repurposing the 700 MHz frequency band is appropriate also because it ties in with initial 5G deployment.

2. sub‐700MHz Band (470‐694MHz)

Spectrum usage in this band should be reassessed at Union level no later than 2025.

700MHz in Europe / USA

UK: OFCOM has issued a consultation paper on “Managing the effects of 700 MHz clearance on UK: OFCOM has issued a consultation paper on Managing the effects of 700 MHz clearance on PMSE and DTT viewers” on 31 Mar 2016, indicated to award 700MHz in 2018‐19

France: already auction 700MHz in 2015. ANFR (Agence Nationale des Fréquences) French Radio Spectrum Assignment Authorities

awarded authorizations on 1 Apr 2016 to Bouygues Telecom for three sites in Paris and to Free Mobile for three sites in Tarbes

The sites can be used from 5 April 2016 which is the date that France completed its switch The sites can be used from 5 April 2016, which is the date that France completed its switch over to high definition TV. This forms part of efforts to modernize the digital terrestrial television (DTT) platform in order to gradually free up the 700 MHz band for use by mobile communications services. The band will be effectively released for mobile broadband by June 2019.

Bouygues Telecom also confirmed that it would commercially deploy its first 4G site in the 700 MHz band in Paris as of 6 Apr 2016

Germany: already auction 700MHz in 2015

/ / US: The frequency assignment of 700MHz (Band 12/13/17) is different from other countries in Europe (CEPT 700MHz) and APAC (Band 28). Hence, the smartphone ecosystem in US is not applicable to the other countries

Band 42 (3400–3600MHz)

UK: The Ministry of Defence (MoD) formally released 150MHz in the 3.4GHz band to OFCOM in Dec 2015. OFCOM has issued a consultation paper on “Award of the 2.3 and 3.4GHz spectrum bands” on 21 Nov 2016

Japan: Operators in Japan commercialized 3.5GHz in 2016

US: FCC established a new Citizens Broadband Radio Service for shared wireless broadband use of the 3550‐3700 MHz band. The Citizens Broadband Radio Service is governed by a three‐tiered spectrum authorization framework to accommodate a variety of commercial uses on a shared basis with incumbent federal and non‐federal users of the band

– Verizon plans to deploy LTE unlicensed technology in the 5 GHz and 3.5 GHz bands

– AT&T is asking the FCC for a three‐year experimental license to conduct fixed and mobile tests in the 3400‐3600 MHz, 3700‐4200 MHz, 14500‐15350 MHz and 27500‐28500 MHz bands with "various types of experimental wireless equipment" in Austin, Texas.
