Feasibility
and sharing studies on the potential shared use of the 6425-7125 MHz frequency
band between MFCN and Wireless
Access Systems including Radio Local Area Networks (WAS/RLAN).

PT1_59
|
Study possible technical conditions for the
potential shared use of the band 6425-7125 MHz between MFCN and Wireless Access
Systems including Radio Local Area Networks (WAS/RLAN). This would include investigation
on sharing mechanisms/rules, and a range of sharing scenarios based on various
deployment assumptions.
Close
collaboration is needed between ECC PT1 and WG SE / PT SE45. ECC PT1 should
provide MFCN parameters (a range of parameters, including macro Base Stations aligned
with characteristics used in the WRC-23 studies) and WG SE / PT SE 45 should
provide suitable RLAN parameters (ref. work item SE45_04).

Possible further work related to the protection of incumbents would be further assessed, if necessary, at a later stage.
The work under this work item here should not be considered as a decision on the future use of 6425-7125 MHz frequency band.

To address issues due
to usage of aerial UE in border areas

Guidance on the use of
aerial UE in border areas operating in the bands 703-733 MHz, 832-862 MHz,
880-915 MHz, 1710-1785 MHz, 1920-1980 MHz, 2500- 2570 MHz and 2570-2620 MHz

The following issued
could be addressed:
• aerial
UE usage at the border with and without roaming agreements,
• issues
related to “no transmit zone” area in the border areas,
• possible
solutions to avoid harmful interferences due the usage of aerial UE at the
border.
The approach of a toolbox for administration can
be considered as appropriate.

Study and assessment of coexistence and compatibility of MFCN in upper 6 GHz band with incumbent spectrum users (supporting Task1 of the EC Mandate)
|
PT1_58
|
To study and assess compatibility and coexistence
scenarios for MFCN with identified relevant (e.g. FSS, FS, EESS (passive), RAS) existing usages in the 6425-7125
MHz frequency band and relevant (e.g. FSS, FS and WAS/RLAN below 6425 MHz) existing usages in adjacent band(s) and their
potential evolution.
For each compatibility/coexistence scenario, the
risk of interference, the deployment assumptions of relevant applications and
any consequential restrictions in deployment of the MFCN should be identified.
This Work Item should also consider available
conclusions for coexistence with incumbent radiocommunication services, such as
the outcomes of the WRC-23 and technical studies performed by the CEPT and the
ITU-R.

Study and assessment of coexistence and compatibility of: (i) terrestrial systems capable of providing WBB ECS with incumbent spectrum users and (ii) WAS/RLANs with incumbent spectrum users (Task 1 of the EC Mandate)
|
PT1_57
SE45_04
|
To study and assess compatibility and coexistence scenarios both for (i)
terrestrial systems capable of providing WBB ECS and (ii) WAS/RLANs, with
identified existing usages (e.g. FSS, FS, EESS (passive), RAS) in the 6425-7125
MHz frequency band and existing usages (e.g. FSS, FS and WAS/RLAN below 6425
MHz) in adjacent band(s) and their potential evolution, and identify
coexistence parameters and conditions to be implemented in the regulatory
framework in order to enable such possible coexistence, without constraining
relevant (Note 1) incumbent users in various Member States within and adjacent to the
6425-7125 MHz band, including at the EU’s external border.
-----------------------------
Note 1: "Relevant” denotes incumbent services/applications with long-term usage
perspective and coexistence requirements, in line with the international and
EU-level regulatory framework (e.g. FSS, FS, EESS (passive), RAS).
-----------------------------
For each compatibility/coexistence scenario, the risk of interference,
the deployment assumptions of relevant applications, the geographical extent of
usage and any consequential restrictions in deployment of those two systems
should be identified as well as requirements for implementing such scenarios,
for instance in terms of harmonised least restrictive technical conditions or
in terms of other regulatory and operational aspects which support the
implementation of a coexistence framework.
This task should also consider available conclusions for coexistence
with incumbent radiocommunication services, such as the outcomes of the WRC-23
and technical studies performed by the CEPT and the ITU-R.

EC Mandate on 6425-7125 MHz - Task 2
|
PT1_50
SE45_04
PT1_57
PT1_58
|
Taking into account the results from Task 1 and the
outcome of the RSPG work concerning the long-term vision for the upper 6 GHz
band, as appropriate, to identify and assess the technical feasibility of
possible scenarios for the shared use (Note 1) of the 6425-7125 MHz
frequency band for both (i) terrestrial systems capable of providing WBB ECS
and (ii) WAS/RLANs. In this regard, seek to determine sharing solutions which:
- ensure
efficient spectrum use and proportionate technical impact on both systems,
subject to due assessment;
- provide
a greater overall benefit for the case of both systems sharing the upper 6 GHz
band, than the case, where each of them uses an exclusively allocated portion
of this band; the assessment should also consider any need for new technical
standards to implement the shared solution;
- ensure the protection of relevant (note 2)
incumbent users within and adjacent to the 6425-7125 MHz band and their future
evolution and development.
At least one preferred
shared-use scenario should be identified in the outcome of Task 2, which must
serve as the basis for performing Task 3.
If no preferred shared-use
scenario can be identified, the CEPT must propose a preferred alternative
scenario. This preferred alternative scenario must serve as the basis for
performing Task 3, for the usage of the band (or portions thereof), preferably by
both systems or by one of the two systems.
In determining any preferred scenario(s) under this
Task, the CEPT shall take due account of the RSPG Opinion on the upper 6 GHz
band (Note 3)
Note 1: The
notion of “shared use” for the purpose of this Mandate should at least include
the simultaneous use of the upper 6 GHz band, or portions thereof, by both
systems in the same geographical area.
Note 2: “Relevant”
denotes incumbent services/applications with long-term usage perspective and
coexistence requirements, in line with the international and EU-level
regulatory framework (e.g. FSS, FS, EESS (passive), RAS).
Note 3: Or the draft Opinion for public
consultation, as appropriate.
