2. Spectrum needs increase – for all users
Mobile data traffic: about 70% annual growth rate in 2012
High definition, 3D, UHD for television
Digital radio
Video-based PPDR networks
PMSE
Drones
e-traffic, smart grids for power supply, e-health, internet of things
Smarter technologies help to accommodate new services
Extra spectrum must be released by 2020
3. The need to manage spectrum is reinforced
Increase
in
demand
for
services
Fixed resource
(public domain from
9 MHz to 300 GHz)
Strong and/or
fragmented
occupation
Need for
regulation
4. Lighter allocation procedures / heavier spectrum
operation and maintenance needs
Ex ante
Ex post
Auctions
Sharing
Technology neutrality…
QoS enforcement
Usage monitoring
Interference management
5. The wireless broadband case
RSPP identified a need of 1200 MHz of spectrum by 2015.
RSPG set the scene of possible spectrum resources to respond to wireless
broadband needs in the future by identifying spectrum bands.
6. Wireless broadband: bands under review
« 700 MHz » band (694-790 MHz)
Rest of « UHF » (470-694 MHz)
L Band
2 GHz bands
2.3 GHz harmonised band
High capacity for MBB (3,4-3,8 GHz /3,8-4,2 GHz)
5 GHz for WiFi extension
Technical issues have become major public policy issues
8. 700 MHz status today within ITU
700 MHz band in Region 1
allocated to mobile service on
a co-primary basis (WRC-12),
effective in 2015
The lower edge of the
allocation is subject to
refinement at WRC-15
The technical and
regulatory conditions
applicable will be
specified at WRC-15
9. 700 MHz band in France

Explore all scenarios for a liberation of the band
between 2017-2022

Prime Minister decision to come:
conciliate the need for very high speed mobile
connectivity
with the respect of the free DTT platform
while valuing this public domain resource to its best
10. Work in progress in France: 4G roll-out
ANFR’s mission: monitor and authorize deployments while protecting users (DTT
interferences and public exposure to magnetic fields).
ANFR Observatory: number of « supports » authorized since Nov-12.
11. Smarter spectrum sharing
Mission to Joëlle Toledano
Professor of Econmics,
Supélec
Report to Minister
Fleur Pellerin expected
in March 2014
