ECC Decision , ECC Report

Exemption from individual licensing for small IoT transmit-only satellite terminals for land and maritime applications transmitting in the 5850-5875 MHz band and 14.0-14.5 GHz band

SE40_46

Define the spectrum occupancy and scenarios related to market demand for such terminals considering a licence exempt regime (unknown location, no individual coordination)

Study sharing and compatibility in the C and Ku band in order to define suitable characteristics for small IoT transmit-only satellite terminals (ECC Report by WG SE), exempt small IoT satellite terminals from individual licencing in all or parts of the 5850-5875 MHz band and 14.0-14.5 GHz band (ECC Decision by WG FM)

T: 30-10-2026

This WI is related to satellite terminals with limited e.i.r.p., antenna with low directivity and that are not under the control of a satellite system.

Subject to favourable sharing and compatibility studies from WG SE, an ECC Decision on the exemption of small IoT transmit-only satellite terminals from individual licencing will be developed.

ECC Recommendation Development of coordination measures to limit the impact of approved RNSS jamming and spoofing operations on GNSS users from other sectors, in response to requests form Resolution COM5/5 (WRC-23) FM44_36
FM22_39
To develop an ECC Recommendation with guidance and best practices on the coordination between national relevant authorities during approved RNSS jamming and spoofing exercises in order to limit the impact of such exercises on other GNSS users, without prejudicing the right of administrations to use GNSS jammer for security or defense purpose and considering the requests from the Resolution COM5/5 (WRC-23).
S: 16-02-2024
T: 26-06-2026

The work will be done in close cooperation with FM22 and FM58 with respect to GNSS receivers on-board vessels.

FM22 will address the illegal civil GNSS jammers in a dedicated work item.

ECC Recommendation Guidance related to the authorisation and/or renewal of IRIDIUM satellite network services as per ECC/DEC/(09)02 and potential relevant mechanisms to deal with non-compliance in a coordinated action of CEPT administrations
A new ECC Recommendation will be developed, on the basis of ECC Decision (09)02 on the harmonisation of the bands 1610-1626.5 MHz and 2483.5-2500 MHz for use by systems in the Mobile-Satellite Service, and will consider some approaches to authorisation (of Iridium) and/or its renewal, which may be of assistance to some administrations, including potential mechanisms to deal with non-compliance in a coordinated action of CEPT administrations

An ECC Recommendation providing information and guidance to administrations in their work when considering national authorisations for Iridium.

Guidance may be helpful to administrations in dealing with any instances of interference towards the radio astronomy service beyond a tolerable level.

The new ECC Recommendation, which would be based on ECC Decision (09)02 on the harmonisation of the bands 1610-1626.5 MHz and 2483.5-2500 MHz for use by systems in the Mobile-Satellite Service, may also consider some approaches to authorisation (of Iridium) and potential mechanisms to deal with non-compliance in a coordinated action of CEPT administrations

ECC Report Assess potential coordinated FSS (Earth-to-space) earth stations within all or parts of 92-94 GHz, 94.1-100 GHz, 102-109.5 GHz and 111.8-114.25 GHz

The scope includes why it is timely to consider bands above 92 GHz:

- technology availability and timelines;

- demand analysis or clear articulation of the amount of spectrum needed, with a special focus on the need for more uplink spectrum and the connection with the use of Q/V and E/W bands;

- feasibility of introducing FSS (Earth-to-space) when there are already services allocated within these bands and in adjacent bands
S: 14-02-2025
T: 26-06-2026

It has to be noted that Resolution 750 is applicable for FS in 92-94 GHz and under study for allocations in 111.8-114.25 GHz under WRC-27 AI 1.18.

Technical studies may be triggered if necessary

CEPT Report Response to the EC Mandate on D2D-IMT SE40_49
Taking into account the outcome of the work done in SE40_49, and the results of the work done by ECC PT1 and CPG PTC related to the preparation for AI 1.13 of WRC-27 develop CEPT Reports in response to Tasks 1 and 2 of the EC Mandate “to study feasibility of and develop least restrictive harmonised technical conditions for the use of EU-harmonised frequency bands for terrestrial wireless systems providing electronic communications services by satellite systems providing direct-to-device-IMT connectivity”.

The relevant users in the context of Task 2 are to be determined.

Public Consultation date for Draft CEPT Report A: July 2026;
Public Consultation date for Draft CEPT Report B: March 2027

In Progress
* Target dates are seen as the intended date for the final approval of the related deliverable by the responsible entity. Internal deadlines for project teams and dates for the start of Public Consultations can be reflected in the remarks column. In general this implies that the draft deliverable should be completed by the project team one WG meeting earlier for publication.
