  • Rep. ITU-R M.2109 1
    Rep. ITU-R M.2109 1 REPORT ITU-R M.2109 Sharing studies between IMT-Advanced systems and geostationary satellite networks in the fixed-satellite service in the 3 400-4 200 and 4 500-4 800 MHz frequency bands (2007) Executive summary This Report provides a summary of the sharing studies between IMT-Advanced systems and geostationary satellite networks in the fixed-satellite service (FSS) in the 3 400-4 200 and 4 500-4 800 MHz frequency bands. It was conducted by ITU-R in the framework of Agenda item 1.4 of WRC-07, in accordance with resolves 5 to Resolution 228 (Rev.WRC-03), as these bands were identified as candidate bands for future development of IMT-2000 and IMT-Advanced systems, as described in the Report ITU-R M.2079. The bands 3 400-4 200 MHz and 4 500-4 800 MHz are allocated worldwide on a primary basis to the FSS. This Report presents the results of the sharing studies performed between geostationary satellite networks in the FSS and IMT-Advanced systems. The following areas are covered in this Report: − Regulatory information. − Frequency usage by satellite services in these bands, provided on a global and regional basis. − FSS space and earth station deployments. − Considerations on potential identification of the 3 400-4 200 MHz and 4 500-4 800 MHz bands for IMT-Advanced. − Parameters of the systems considered in this Report. − Sharing studies (methodologies and results) between the two services from two aspects: − Interferences from IMT-Advanced transmitters to receiving FSS earth stations (in-band and adjacent band, and overdrive of the FSS receivers).
