ECC Report

Impact of wind turbines on various radiocommunication services

Study the technical impact of wind turbines on various radiocommunication services (e.g. fixed radio links, broadcasting, radar, etc)

S: 01-01-2014
T: 30-09-2020

National studies have shown scattering effects from wind turbines may have an effect on the available fading margin for radio services.

The study aims to provide technical results that may improve the way the effects of wind turbines are taken into account in the modelling of disturbances to radio services.

The subject is addressed through a dedicated forum group

ECC Report 260 is published (January 2017)

It is to be noted that the Netherlands Administration is developing a measurement method of ultra-low EMC emissions, which are a concern for radio astronomy. Drones are used to verify the measurement method by generating the low EMC emissions as a test. Results are expect around the end of 2017.

To study the possible use of low power audio PMSE (excluding airborne use) in the aeronautical frequency band 960-1164MHz.

S: 29-09-2017
T: 31-01-2020

The results of this work item will form the technical part to be annexed to the draft ECC Report “Preliminary investigations on regulatory and legal issues on the feasibility of introducinglow power audio PMSE in the band 960-1164 MHz” under preparation by WGFM/FM51 and intended to be sent to PC by the July 2019 meeting of ECC.

The draft ECC Report resulting from this work item is submitted to WG FM that will forward it to ECC for public consultation.

ECC PT1 will define the least restrictivetechnical conditions (BEM) including potential EIRP restrictions for RMR toensure coexistence with MFCN base stations. See doc SE(18)049 FM LS to PT1: https://cept.org/Documents/wg-se/41234/se-18-049_ls-to-pt1-on-rmr-at-900-and-1900-mhz

Cooperation with ECC PT1 on MFCN.

Cooperation with SE24 on SRD inthe 900 MHz range.

Three ECC Reports are expected as outcome of this work item.

In order to have a complete answer to the EC Mandate on FRMCS, the technical studies should focus on 2290-2300 MHz. See doc SE(19)128_FM56 LS to SE7 and PT1

Additional coexistence study to ECC Report 200

SE24_69

To develop technical conditions, in particular, minimum required separation distances, in order to protect E-GSM-R applications operating in the frequency bands 873-876 MHz/918-921 MHz from harmful interference caused by SRDs/RFIDs operating in the frequency bands 874-876 MHz/915-921 MHz

S: 25-01-2019
T: 31-05-2020

ECC Report 200 investigates co-existence between SRDs and E-GSM-R and concludes that co-frequency sharing with E-GSM-R is generally not possible without applying additional mitigation techniques. The mitigation techniques have not been studied in this Report yet.

To consider the doubling of maximum channel width for some selected FS bands in the range from 11 to 38 GHz (11 GHz, 18 GHz, 28 GHz, 23GHz, 32 GHz, 38 GHz).

To address the interest for wider channels asa viable solution for the future to meet the increasing demand for capacity, asexpressed by number of administrations. (See ECC Report 173)

SE19 will consider an additional ECC Report in addition to the approved revised recommendations.
