  • Compatibility and Sharing Analysis Between Dvb–T and Ob (Outside Broadcast) Audio Links in Bands Iv and V
    ERC REPORT 90 European Radiocommunications Committee (ERC) within the European Conference of Postal and Telecommunications Administrations (CEPT) COMPATIBILITY AND SHARING ANALYSIS BETWEEN DVB–T AND OB (OUTSIDE BROADCAST) AUDIO LINKS IN BANDS IV AND V Edinburgh, October 2000 ERC REPORT 90 Copyright 2000 the European Conference of Postal and Telecommunications Administrations (CEPT) ERC REPORT 90 Executive Summary This study assesses the compatibility between OB links and DVB–T in bands IV and V and determines the necessary separation distances between OB links and DVB–T as a function of frequency. The study takes account of three spectrum masks: the spectrum mask for sensitive cases according to the Chester Agreement, 19971 and the two spectrum masks recommended by SE PT 212. The results are only valid for the DVB–T and OB links system parameters given in this study. In order to establish if in a given set of circumstances: - the DVB-T service and - OB link usage at a given location are compatible, the relevant separation distances derived in Sections 2 and 3, must be examined. If both separation distances are respected, then usage is compatible. The main results of the study are as follows: • In most cases, Co-channel operation (frequency difference from 0 to 4 MHz between the centre frequencies) of DVB–T and OB links within a DVB–T coverage area will cause unacceptable interference to OB links and vice-versa. • For an operation of OB links in the 1st adjacent channel of DVB–T (frequency difference from 4 to 12 MHz between the centre frequencies), the necessary separation distances obtained in this study are quite large.

  • The Economics of Releasing the V-Band and E-Band Spectrum in India

It is also important to ensure optimal usage of the spectrum to maximise economic benefits of this natural resource. So, as the government decides to release the presently unreleased spectrum, it should consider the overall economic impacts of the alternative strategies for re- leasing the spectrum. In this note, we consider the potential uses of both V-band (57 GHz - 64 GHz) and E-band (71 GHz - 86 GHz), as well as the economic benefits that may accrue from these uses. This analysis can help the government choose a suitable strategy for releasing spectrum in these bands.

  • DVB-H Planning with ICS Telecom
    2 White Paper July 2006 DVB-H radio-planning aspects in ICS telecom Coverage Emmanuel Grenier Spectrum : COFDM SFN / MFN Convergence – back channel Software solutions in radiocommunications 3 Abstract This white paper addresses the problem of efficient planning DVB-H networks with ICS telecom. This document is intended for radio-planner, technical director, project manager, consultant to be aware of the important goals to pursue when planning a DVB-H network. It focuses not only on macro-scale DVB-H planning and its analysis on the geo-marketing point of view, but also provides methodologies for deep-indoor network densification, at the address level. The suggested methodologies are divided into three topics: Defining the coverage model : o by defining the right threshold for a given service class; o by densifying the DVB-H network in dense urban areas. Enhancing the business model according to technical inputs : o analyzing the impact of the chosen coverage model on the population; o ensuring interactive/billing service by complementing the DVB-H network with a cellular infrastructure. Analyzing the impact of the integration of a DVB-H service in the existing spectrum, as well as checking the COFDM interference areas for SFN networks. 4 Table of Content 1 Acronyms ___________________________________________________________________ 1 2 Coverage aspects _____________________________________________________________ 2 2.1 Cartographic data ________________________________________________________ 2 2.1.1 Cartographic environment for Macro-scale

  • Radio Spectrum Memorandums of Understanding and Agreements
    Radio Spectrum Memorandums of Understanding and agreements Publication date: June 2017 About this document 1.1 This document provides details the Memoranda of Understanding (MoUs) and Agreements entered into by Ofcom relating to cross-border radio frequency coordination and the management of interference. The information provided in this document includes: Mobile Service and Broadband Wireless Business Radio Broadcasting Services: o BAND III (174-225/230 MHz) o BANDS IV/V (470-862 MHz) 1.2 MoUs define the signal power, in a specified frequency band, that may be received in a neighbour country from a station in the home country. Stations that exceed the defined power levels are coordinated directly between the administrations on behalf of the operators. MoUs do not give an absolute assurance of no interference into stations close to a border or set an absolute limit on the signal strength that may be received in one administration from a transmitter in another. They specify a trigger level, which is used to initiate a formal coordination procedure so that an administration may have knowledge of, and an opportunity to express concern about, transmitters in a neighbouring country. 1.3 Where they are available, recommendations published by the European Conference of Postal and Telecommunications (CEPT) typically provide a basis for the negotiation of MoUs with neighbouring administrations. It is unusual to make a separate assessment of interference between the UK and a neighbour administration. Ofcom contributes to the development of the CEPT recommendations. 1.4 The licensee is responsible for ensuring compliance with the terms of the MOU, Ofcom will coordinate with the neighbouring administration if the licensee is unable to comply.
