  3. Agenda • Global regulatory summaries • Critical issue(s) Rich Kennedy, Research In Motion

  4. Regulatory Summary – North America • US • Payroll Tax Bill passed in February contains the spectrum changes • CSMAC deliberating on controlling interference from unlicensed spectrum use • FCC looking at receiver standards • Canada • Mexico Rich Kennedy, Research In Motion

  5. US Spectrum Bill Summary • Spectrum auctions to be started within three years of enactment of the bill: • 1755 to 1780 MHz • 1675 to 1710 MHz (15 MHz only) • 3550 to 3650 MHz with exclusion zones • 1915 to 1920 MHz paired with 1995 to 2000 MHz • 2155 to 2180 MHz (15 MHz only) • Reorganization of the Broadcast TV Spectrum with Incentive Auctions Rich Kennedy, Research In Motion

  6. US Spectrum Bill [2] • Unlicensed use of the 5 GHz band • 8-month NTIA study to add 5350 - 5470 MHz to U-NII • 18-month NTIA study for 5850 - 5925 MHz • Reallocation of the 700 MHz Public Safety band and Public Safety guardband for commercial use. • Advanced Public Safety allocations using the 700 MHz Public Safety band and D Block Rich Kennedy, Research In Motion

  7. CSMAC • Commerce Spectrum Management Advisory Council • Meeting held March 1, 2012 • Draft discussions on unlicensed spectrum • Should all unlicensed access require database control? • Expected to take decisions in July Rich Kennedy, Research In Motion

  8. Regulatory Summary – European Union • ETSI • EN 300 328 v1.8.1 (ERM vote this week) • EN 301 893 v1.7.1 • UK • Ofcom presented ETSI BRAN with TVWS Work Item • House of Lords looking into “superfast broadband” • “...will address what changes in the use of digital communications can be anticipated over the next 20 years, and how should these should affect strategic investment in the UK’s digital infrastructure.” • European Parliament • Approves a Radio Spectrum Policy Programme Rich Kennedy, Research In Motion

  9. Regulatory Summary - Asia • MIIT has approved UHT/EUHT as “voluntary” standards • Transition to “mandatory” a simple process Rich Kennedy, Research In Motion

  10. Critical Issues • Lufthansa DA2GC • FM PT48 recommended 2.4 GHz band not be used • More industry input needed to support this view Rich Kennedy, Research In Motion

  11. Lufthansa DA2GC • Direct Air to Ground Communications • Network to span all of western Europe • Base stations to blanket the EU • Provides a number of service for in-flight operation • FM PT48 recommended 2.4 GHz band not be used Rich Kennedy, Research In Motion
