3.4-3.8 GHz band

From : Guntis Ancāns [ mailto:[email protected] ] Sent: Thursday , December 01, 2016 11:10 AM To : Endrik Kriisa < [email protected] > Subject : 3.4-3.8 GHz band Dear Endrik, Currently the frequency band 3410-3800 MHz band is used by operators for Broadband Wireless Access (BWA) point-to-multipoint systems in FDD and TDD mode in Latvia with the existing parameters and channel arrangement differing from nx5 MHz. Such use is foreseen until end of 2018. During this transition time rearrangements in the band will be completed providing operation of MFCN (Mobile/Fixed Communications Networks) in TTD mode in whole 3400-3800 MHz band. According to the Latvian Radio Frequency Plan the frequency band 3400-3800 MHz will be rearranged into 8x50 MHz TDD contiguous spectrum blocks from January 2019. Therefore we are interested in conclusion of a new frequency coordination Arrangement for 3400-3800 MHz band for MFCN systems. The technical criteria of Arrangement could be based on ECC Recommendation (15)01 for this frequency band. What is your plans regarding the 3400-3800 MHz band (e.g., FDD or TDD mode in the band)? Are you interested in conclusion of the frequency coordination Arrangement for 3400-3800 MHz band for MFCN systems? We are ready to prepare a draft Arrangement for 3400-3800 MHz for MFCN systems.
