  1. Activities of the Radiocommunication Sector Arab Regional Development Forum on Broadband in the Arab Region: Challenges and Opportunities   Tunis-Tunisia, 17 September 2012 Colin Langtry, Chief, BR Study Groups Department

  2. ITU-D ITU-T Promote and assist the extension of ICTs to all the world’s inhabitants - narrowing the digital divide Telecommunication standardization- network and service aspects ITU-R Global radio spectrum management and radiocommunicationstandardization ITU Overview 193 Member States >750 Sector Members,Associates and Academia ITU Helping the World Communicate

  3. Roles of ITU Radiocommunication Sector global standards & guidelines assistance to administrations international regulations • Rights of access to the spectrum • Efficient use of spectrum • Operation free from interference • Economies of scale • Interoperability and roaming • Global harmonization • Guidelines for national & regional regulations Good quality and less costly equipment More favorable investment environment (clear & stable ) 3

  4. International spectrum management framework ITU Constitution,Convention High level principles,rights and obligations Plenipot Table of Frequency AllocationsSatellite orbit/terrestrial Plans Frequency coordination Frequency registrationEmergency procedures … Radio RegulationsBi/multilateral Agreements WRCRRC RA/Mail ITU-R Recommendations Technical characteristicsSharing criteria/assessment Spectrum management Operational aspects … ITU-R Reports,Handbooks, software tools Study GroupsWPs, TGs

  5. Radio Regulations • Intergovernmental treaty covering both legal, operational and technical provisions, serves as a supranational instrument for the optimal international management of the radio spectrum • Definesrights and obligations of ITU Member States to accessspectrum • Updatedevery 3 to 4 years 5

  6. Participants: 3000+ Countries: 160+ Companies: 100+ Proposals: 3000+

  7. Good news from WRC-12 Mobile broadband/IMT spectrum • 800 MHz: sharing problems resolved • 700 MHz:allocation to mobile service globally available from 2015 • Additional spectrum:to be considered by WRC-15

  8. ITU-R Studies for WRC-15 on IMT Agenda items for WRC-15 (Resolution 807 (WRC-12)): 1.1 to consider additional spectrum allocations to the mobile service on a primary basis and identification of additional frequency bands for International Mobile Telecommunications (IMT) and related regulatory provisions, to facilitate the development of terrestrial mobile broadband applications, in accordance with Resolution 233 (WRC‑12); 1.2 to examine the results of ITU‑R studies, in accordance with Resolution 232 (WRC‑12), on the use of the frequency band 694-790 MHz by the mobile, except aeronautical mobile, service in Region 1 and take the appropriate measures; Spectrum requirements for the mobile serviceincluding suitable frequency ranges, and other specific requirements (WP 5D) Spectrum sharing and compatibility with other services including consolidation of draft CPM text(JTG 4-5-6-7)

  9. IMT-Advanced is the next generation set of standards in the International Mobile Telecommunications (IMT) framework for global wireless broadband communications. IMT Standards Evolution 1985 WCDMA HSPA CDMA2000 LTE HSPA+ EV-DO TD-SCDMA HSDPA EDGE (UWC-136) Following a detailed evaluation against stringent technical and operational criteria, ITU has determined that “LTE-Advanced” and “WirelessMAN-Advanced” were accorded the official designation of IMT-Advanced. EDGE Evolution 3G IMT-2000 CDMA-DS, CDMA-MC CDMA-TDD TDMA-SC FDMA-TDMA OFDMA-TDD-WMAN 4G Studies are underway to harmonize the existing spectrum identified for IMT and to determine the additional spectrum required to support the burgeoning demand for mobile broadband IMT-Next Decade IMT-Advanced LTE-Advanced WirelessMAN-Advanced 2 Mbit/s 1 Gbit/s

  10. Study Group 1Spectrum management • Spectrum Management (SM) -principles and techniques • General principles of sharing • Spectrum monitoring • Long-term strategies for spectrum utilization • Economic approaches to national SM International spectrum regulatory framework Short Range radio Devices (SRD)

  11. Study Group 3Radiowave propagation • Propagation in ionized and non-ionized media • Point-to-point and Earth-space propagation • Modelling and development of prediction methods • Radio noise Characteristics and mapping of propagation medium Propagation prediction methods

  12. Study Group 4Satellite services • Systems and performance in FSS, BSS, MSS and RDSS • Efficient orbit/spectrum utilization for FSS, BSS, MSS and RDSS • IP Global broadband Internet access via satellite • Early warning and relief operations • Technical characteristics for systems and networks in the RNSS • Satellite radio interface of IMT-2000

  13. Study Group 5Terrestrial services • IMT-2000 and IMT-Advanced • Fixed, mobile, portable and nomadic communications, including BWA, RLANs, HAPS • Maritime and aeronautical services • Radiodetermination service • Amateur service • SDR and CRs Next generation mobile access “IMT-Advanced” Spectrum issues for maritime and aeronautical services

  14. Study Group 6Broadcasting service • Programme production • Programme assembly • Delivery • Reception quality Sharing issues at UHF Multimedia and data broadcasting for mobile reception Accessibility

  15. Study Group 7Science services • Systems for space operation, space research, Earth exploration and meteorology • Radio astronomy • Standard frequency and time signals EESS including meteorological satellite service for disaster prediction and detection, and for climate monitoring Protection of passive services, e.g. radioastronomy

  16. Study Group Products • ITU-R Recommendations • Reports and Handbooks • Technical bases for radio conferences

  17. World Radiocommunication Seminar • Deals with the use of the radio-frequency spectrum and the satellite orbits, and, in particular, with the application of the provisions of the ITU Radio Regulations • Fellowships available for participants from low income countries
