These are: 1. between a CDMA2000 downlink in the 1930 – 1990 MHz frequency band and an WCDMA uplink in the 1920 – 1980 MHz frequency band, 2. between CDMA2000 systems in the 1920 – 1980 / 2110 – 2170 MHz frequency bands and WCDMA systems in the 1920 – 1980 / 2110 – 2170 MHz frequency bands, 3. between a CDMA2000 downlink in the 869 - 894 MHz frequency band and a GSM or WCDMA uplink in the 880 – 915 MHz frequency band, 4. between a CDMA2000 uplink in the 1850 - 1910 MHz frequency band and a GSM downlink in the 1805 - 1880 MHz frequency band, 5. between TDD and FDD systems at 2 GHz, 6. from broadcast operations in the 470 – 800 MHz band into CDMA2000 networks operating in the 450 – 470 MHz band, 7. between PHS systems in the 1885 – 1920 MHz band and WCDMA uplinks in the 1920- 1980 MHz band.The output reports should include all relevant details of the sharing studies which should cover the Page 6 of 26 definition of the interference scenario, relevant analytical studies (including equipment characteristics requirements, radio propagation models, etc.), results of analytical studies and results of live testing. SWG1 will also gather information on the sharing studies that have already been undertaken by the ITU, standards organizations and other sources on these interference scenarios.
