Transition from Legacy PPDR Land Mobile Frequency Use PPDR Applications in Hungary – the Past

Frequency Usage Migration • In 2006 nationwide assignment of 380-385/390-395 MHz band for TETRA

System Operator Pro-M

• TETRA-based EDR (Unified Digital Radio Communications System) network

• Preferred channel agreements with AUT, SVK, UKR, ROU, SRB, HRV, SVN.

• 2006-2011: Migration of land mobile PPDR radio communitations into EDR

(with very few exceptions).

• Voice and low speed data network with single channel, group call, AGA and

DMO features.

• Routing to commercial mobile networks and fixed communication lines is

possible.

14

Global Level - ITU • Reports ITU-R M.2377 and ITU-R M.2291 – PPDR requirements • Resolution 646 (Rev.WRC-15) on PPDR (11/2015=> 01/2017)

• Harmonized PPDR frequency ranges • Narrowband and Wideband PPDR continuity in present bands • Resources for BB-PPDR – the bands identifyed for IMT • 694-894 MHz band is encouraged for BB-PPDR global

harmonization as specified in ITU-R M.2015 Recommendation • 380-470 MHz remains PPDR regional harmonization in Region 1

• Recommendation ITU-R M.2015-1(02/2015) – Regionally harmonized PPDR

• Region 1: 380-470 MHz, 380-385/390-395 MHz preferred core band, Separate DMO and AGA sub-bands in 400 MHz band • Region 2: 700 and 800 MHz band • Region 3: 400 and 800 MHz band

BB-PPDR Spectrum Regulation


15

European Union Level • Commission implementing decision (EU) 2016/687 of 28 April 2016 on

the harmonisation of the 694-790 MHz frequency band for terrestrial systems capable of providing wireless broadband electronic communications services and for flexible national use in the Union

Flexible National Use means options • in the MFCN bands:

• Possible PPDR use

• in the Guard Band and Gaps: • One national option: Supplemental Downlink (SDL) • Other national option: PPDR, PMSE and M2M



16

European Level – CEPT/ECC • ECC Report 199 (30-05-2013) – User requirements and spectrum needs

for future European broadband PPDR systems (Wide Area Networks), Chosen technology: LTE; Spectrum requirement: 2x10 MHz

(Standard LTE channel bandwidths: 1.4; 3; 5; 10; 20 MHz) Recent opinion: for BB-PPDR Requirements LTE-Advanced (LTE Release

10+evolutions) needed, wishfully LTE Release 13 and beyond. • ECC/DEC/(15)01 (06-03-2015) – Harmonised technical conditions for

MFCN in 694-790 MHz including a paired FDD (Frequency Division Duplex) 2x30 MHz Uplink/Downlink and optional unpaired Supplemental Downlink (SDL).

• ECC Report 239 (30-09-2015) – Studies for BB-PPDR systems in the

700 MHz range

• ECC Report 240 (30-09-2015) – Studies for BB-PPDR and other applications in 410-430 and 450-470 MHz and adjacent bands



17

European Level – CEPT/ECC • ECC Report 218 (02-10-2015) – Harmonised conditions and spectrum

bands for the implementation of future European BB-PPDR systems • 700 MHz band „Flexible Harmonization” • 400 MHz band 2x5 MHz in 410-430 and 450-470 MHz

• 700 MHz Options:



Basis for ECC/DEC/(16)02

700 MHz harmonization

18

European Level – CEPT/ECC

• ECC/DEC/(16)02 – (In force: 17 June 2016) Harmonised technical conditions and frequency bands for the implementation of Broadband Public Protection and Disaster Relief (BB-PPDR) systems

• BB PPDR Harmonization in 700 MHz and 400 MHz bands



700 MHz • LTE Band 28 (2 x 30 MHz):

703-733/758-788 MHz standartized by 3GPP. • Some countries auctioned already for commercial use (e.g. GER: 1 Bn EUR, FRA: 2.5 Bn EUR) • Some countries allocate it partly to PPDR • 2x5 MHz and 2x3 MHz slots identified for PPDR

19

European Level – CEPT/ECC • ECC/DEC/(16)02

400 MHz



NATO interests to be

protected according to NATO

Policy on 380-385/390-395

MHz for PPDR Use

AC/322(CP/3)D(2016)0002

In Hungary the

450-457.38 /

460-467.38 MHz

part of the band is

auctioned.

HNG proposes to

return 410-430

MHz in the ECC

DEC(16)02 to keep

national flexibility.

Channelling

1.4 MHz, 3 MHz or 5 MHz

Conclusions • Expected BB-PPDR technology: LTE • CEPT/ECC: for LTE-based BB-PPDR requested min. 2x10 MHz • ITU (ITU-R M.2377-0 Report): in larger cities temporary request could

reach 45–175 MHz • Harmonized European BB-PPRD bands: Core: 700 MHz Additional: 400 MHz • 700 MHz band will be freed from Broadcasting by 2020 • CEPT/ECC prefers from 400 MHz range 450-470 MHz band only, • Hungary prefers to broaden the harmonization to

410-430 MHz and 450-470 MHz bands. • Additional technical studies initiated by HNG in CEPT/ECC for

410-430 MHz supported by AUT, HRV, LTV, SWE.
