Subject: Summary and preliminary analysis of the responses to the WG FM questionnaire on PMSE (Version 4)

Summary: This document provides a summary and a preliminary analysis of the responses received to the questionnaire on PMSE developed by FM51 and agreed by WG FM at its 74th meeting.

Proposal: To be considered by FM51. Some elements may be used by FM51 in its current activities (revision of ECC Report 002, CEPT Reports in response to EC Mandate, revision of ERC/REC 25- 10...).

Background: The document contains a summary of the responses and a preliminary analysis for each of the bands dealt with in the questionnaire. The set of full responses sent by the administrations is annexed to this document. It is intended to update this document on a regular basis through exchange between the ECO and the national administrations contact points.

Version 1: 9 July 2012 A total of 29 CEPT countries provided a response to the questionnaire. Amongst those, one administration mentioned that it was not in position to provide relevant information because of an ongoing review process of its national frequency table allocation and one administration provided information limited to 5 of the 19 frequency bands under consideration. Although some of the other responses may not be fully complete for all specific items, it is considered than this set of responses provide a quite representative snapshot of the PMSE use across CEPT.

Administrations are invited that the information provided in this summary is consistent with their situation and to send to the ECO any correction or update if relevant.

Version 2: 12 July 2012 With the addition of 2 new responses (MLT, E), this revision includes now the responses from 31 CEPT countries. Furthermore, a few modifications or clarifications have been made to the responses by the concerned administration (FIN, LTU, F) and reported as appropriate into the summary included in this document.

Version 3: 18 September 2012 This 3rd version includes the responses from 32 CEPT countries (addition of POR). Furthermore, one correction has been made to the responses by one administration (HUN). The summary has been updated as appropriate.

Version 4: 27 November 2012 As a result of the introduction of version 3 to the September 2012 meeting of WG FM, two additional responses were sent to the ECO from . Thus, the 4th version includes the responses from 34 CEPT countries and a further update of the summary as appropriate

Preliminary analysis

The summary shows that this band, fully or part of it, is widely available for PMSE applications across CEPT (27 from the 32 providing a response on this band). This is mostly for wireless microphones, sometimes with the extension to other low power audio applications. In most of cases, PMSE operation is under license exempt or general licensing regime. A few countries request individual licences, one as a general rule for radiomicrophones, another to allow for more relaxed technical conditions. Concerning the technical conditions, the vast majority follows the provisions from Recommendation 70-03.

Preliminary analysis

From the 31 countries providing a response on this band, only 2 of them indicated an availability of part of it for PMSE, one for radio microphones, one typically used for fixed audio links. The level of harmonisation of this band is thus very low for PMSE.

Preliminary analysis

From the 32 countries providing a response on this band, 30 of them report about the availability of the band or parts of it for PMSE applications. The predominant use is for radio microphones (including hearing aids) with technical conditions based in most cases on REC 70-03. However, some countries apply more stringent conditions (lower ERP or requirement on the bandwidth or channel spacing). The use of this band for radio microphones is generally regulated through license exempt or general license regime, but light or individual licensing may also apply in some countries. This band is also used for other PMSE applications such as wireless audio links and talkbacks.

Preliminary analysis

From the 33 countries providing a response on this band, 31 of them report about the availability of the band or parts of it for PMSE applications. The predominant use is for radio microphones (and also in-ear monitors) with technical conditions based in most cases on REC 70-03. The use of this band for radio microphones is generally regulated through license exempt or general license regime, but light or individual licensing may and also in-ear monitors also apply in some countries.

15 This band is also used in some countries for other PMSE applications such as temporary SAB/SAP, talkbacks, wireless audio links generally with higher ERP and in most cases with individual licensing.

A number of countries refer to some international developments on the 700 MHz band (results of WRC-12, WRC-15 AI 1.2, cognitive devices in the white spaces) which may have an impact on PMSE in this band. In addition, the regulation is expected to be amended in some countries to reflect the modifications recently brought to the REC 70-03 in the full range 470-862 MHz.

Preliminary analysis

From the 33 countries providing a response on this band, 29 of them report about the availability of the band for PMSE applications. The predominant use is for radio microphones (and also in-ear monitors) with technical conditions based in most cases on REC 70-03 and ECC/DEC(09)03. However, a number of countries apply slightly different conditions, for the maximum ERP level, which are based on previous versions of REC 70-03. The use of this band for radio microphones is generally regulated through license exempt or general license regime, but light or individual licensing may and also in-ear monitors also apply in some countries.

This band is also used in a few countries for other PMSE applications such as temporary SAB, wireless audio links generally with higher ERP and individual licensing.

In some countries, the regulation is expected to be amended to be in line with the latest version of REC 70-03. In addition, it is stated that some international developments (results of WRC-12, WRC-15 AI 1.2, cognitive devices in the white spaces) may have an impact on PMSE in this band.

Preliminary analysis

From the 32 countries providing a response on this band, 25 of them report about the availability of the band or parts of it for PMSE applications. In addition, 3 countries intend to make the band available in the near future. The band is used or planned to be used by radio microphones and also in-ear monitoring and wireless audio applications with technical conditions based in most cases on REC 70-03 (Annex 10 for radio microphones, Annex 13 for wireless audio applications). The use of this band is generally regulated through license exempt or general license regime, but light or individual licensing may also apply in some countries. It should be noted that one country reported about the availability of the band 1800-1805 MHz under the same conditions than for the 1785-1800 MHz band.

Preliminary analysis

From the 32 countries providing a response on this band, 29 of them report about the availability of the band or parts of it for PMSE applications. The main type (28 countries) is related to temporary video links (portable, mobile with some allowance for airborne use) and cordless cameras as referred to in ERC/REC 25-10. In most cases, this use is under an individual licensing regime, although low power wireless cameras can in a few countries operate under a general license. It is noted that, in addition or as an alternative, 2 countries mention specifically the use of the 2400- 2483.5 MHz band for wideband data transmissions or non-specific SRD as per REC 70-03 for PMSE purpose. 5 countries mentioned that current considerations on the potential introduction of Broadband Wireless systems in the band 2300-2400 MHz may have an impact on the availability of the band for PMSE.

Preliminary analysis

From the 32 countries providing a response on this band, 5 of them report about the availability of the band or parts of it for PMSE application, namely SAB/SAP, video links. Amongst those, 3 countries expect that the use of PMSE will cease because of the introduction of terrestrial Electronic Communications Networks in the 2500-2690 MHz band. On this basis, the relevance of maintaining this band in the ERC/REC 25-10 may be considered.

Preliminary analysis

From the 32 countries providing a response on this band, 9 of them report about the availability of the band or parts of it for PMSE applications, which tends to confirm a decrease of the availability of this band for PMSE. PMSE applications in this band cover temporary video links (portable, mobile with some allowance for airborne use) and cordless cameras as referred to in ERC/REC 25-10. This use is under an individual licensing regime. The development of IMT in this band may have an impact on the spectrum available for PMSE in this band.

Preliminary analysis

The other bands introduced by the countries replying to the questionnaire show a high degree of diversity which reflects the specific national situations. However, it is noted that the availability of frequency bands within the 6/8 GHz range is mentioned by 8 countries for fixed and/or mobile ENG/OB. Further analysis is required on the information related to these other bands introduced by national administrations.

21 PMSE spectrum needs

62 Annex - PMSE spectrum needs / Alternative bands Country 1- MNE No need for alternative bands 2-CYP / 3- LUX Slight increase of spectrum demands expected in future but for the time being, the current overall situation in Luxembourg remains quite stable. Only in case of major uncommonly sport and music events (e.g. Tour de France), some peak demands could occur for PMSE. No other bands are currently foreseen in Luxembourg. 4- MKD / 5- ISL / 6- FIN Increasing demand for all kinds of PMSE applications and PMSE spectrum especially during special events. There will be a requirement to find alternative bands in higher frequencies if the present bands are allocated to other applications, for example LTE. 7- DNK / 8- CZE / 9- SUI 200 MHz of spectrum for professional cordless cameras (without private cordless cameras) at frequencies below 4 GHz (due to radio propagation conditions). A minimum channel bandwith of 10 MHz is required. 10-GEO / 11- HOL Users and usage groups indicate a yearly growth of ~10% in use of low power wireless audio links (wireless microphones). The possibilities for wireless microphones and wireless audio links in VHF and UHF TV-bands has been seriously reduced due to the introduction of T-DAB and DVB-T and the digital dividend. Together with growing quality demand (HD/3D audio+video), problems are expected during large events and around production studio’s. 12-NOR The industry has yet to indicate required spectrum for PMSE. There seem to be a need for more spectrums for wireless cameras at major events. In Norway the spectrum shortage during special events is usually overcome by trading spectrum from other licensees for the duration of the event. To facilitate this, cameras should have a wide tuning range. 13- EST New harmonized frequency bands for the future should be designated for PMSE equipment internationally. Need for alternative harmonized bands for PMSE. 14- BLR / 15- TUR PMSE spectrum need is not a continuous need but a temporary need. Sometimes, demand can reach the supply. Current spectrum is considered to be sufficient in the future. 16- LTU No clear demand for additional PMSE spectrum in the future. No need for alternative bands 17- D The future spectrum needs for PMSE applications depend on various factors: For some application scenarios the number of devices used in parallel at the same location might increase to some extent. However, the resulting potential increased demand for spectrum might be compensated in multiple cases if spectral efficiency is increased by potential future technological advances of the employed hardware. Additionally to this, possible novel features or changed parameters of the applications like an increased bandwidth for HD or 3D material for cordless cameras might be taken into account. The allocation of spectrum that can be used to fulfill the demand of PMSE applications depends on the evaluation of the factors stated in the previous section as well as developments of other radio applications and services and might be adapted accordingly. 18- F In a preliminary analysis, France considers that the frequency requirements for mobile video links during specific events where spectrum needs is high. This cannot be satisfied by the channel permanently identified at national level. Studies could be undertaken for identification of frequency bands and access and sharing conditions for mobile video links to meet frequency requirements for these specific events. 19- HRV No expected decrease for the PMSE spectrum needs. The usage of alternative bands depends on industry demands and further decisions on the digital dividend usage in Croatia 20- SVK / 21- SRB / 22- I For the time being no needs for alternative bands

63 23- S / 24-HNG Due to the spreading of Electronic Communication Networks (e.g. in 470-682 MHz) PMSE devices will be phased out from currently available bands. There is a demand to at least as much spectrum for PMSE purposes as there were. There is also a clear but limited need for frequencies dedicated for this special purpose where PMSE devices can operate with protection from other uses. 25- AUT More relevant than a additional spectrum seems a granted interference free spectrum and no further spectrum losses below 790 MHz. No need for alternative bands if some interior restrictions regarding the current availability of spectrum because of current licenses conditions in Austria could be solved, like the unlimited expire date of old licenses. 26- BUL / 27- G / 28- RUS / 29- IRL With regard to wireless cameras, we see that usage demand may exceed supply with migration from SD to HD technology. Within Ireland, the vast majority of event organisers request to operate in the 2 GHz band. If some of these bands (ex. the 2.3 GHz band, 2 GHz TDD band etc) are allocated for future broadband or other applications, then we may foresee shortage for assigning spectrum for wireless camera applications. With regard to demands of, for example, wireless audio applications, technology developments may lead to greater spectrum efficiency with, for instance, the employment of cognitive radio techniques, which may in turn lead to less overall spectrum usage requirements. ComReg believes that there is currently sufficient spectrum for PMSE activities within Ireland. On this basis, no alternative bands have yet been considered. That said, ComReg also understands that requirements for PMSE may change in the future, and therefore continuously monitors this domain for increased demand, application requirements, and technology developments which may lead to more efficient spectrum management. 30- MLT In Malta, all requests for PMSE spectrum have so far been accommodated. However, more spectrum bands need to be made available to certain applications such as radio microphones. 31- E The demand of the users will increase in the band 470-790 MHz for temporary events. 32- The demand of wireless cameras and video links is increasing, namely on a temporary POR basis for big events, and the frequency bands available are becoming scarce. Concerning potential alternative bands, the DAB L-band (1452-192 MHz) could be an alternative, as well as the unpaired 2 GHz bands (1900-1920 MHz / 2010-2025 MHz). 33- There seems to be a need to accommodate wireless cameras, especially in the range GRC below 3 GHz, that might not be able to be satisfied particularly for medium to large scale events. 34- LVA The need for alternative bands depends on industry demands. Alternative harmonized bands might be required.

Preliminary analysis

21 countries gave their opinion regarding PMSE spectrum needs and potential alternative bands. The views expressed cover a wide range. There is a general feeling regarding a slight increase of spectrum demands. However, this does not necessarily mean that any additional or alternative band is required. Further consideration is required.
