1. On-Going Activities in the CEPT (European Spectrum Regulation) for Applications in Transport and Traffic Telematics including Sensors Interactive Workshop on Scalable Active Sensor Architectures, 24-26 February 2015, Ulm, Germany Thomas Weber, ECO, Spectrum Management

2. Content Organisation in CEPT dealing with TTT applications incl. sensors Overview ERC Recommendation 70-03 Annex 5 On-going activities for TTT applications On-going activities for ITS 63-64 GHz Frequency regulatory status of applications Ultra-Wideband

3. Where does the action take place?

4. ERC Recommendation 70-03 Annex 5 (I)

5. ERC Recommendation 70-03 Annex 5 (II)

6. On-going Activities in Europe for TTT ERC Recommendation 70-03 Annex 5 approved for public consultation on 13 February 2015. Stramlines the regulatory terminology. Introduces a definition for automotive radar:  Automotive radar is defined as a moving radar device, at ground or sea level, and supporting functions of the vehicle. Be aware that:  76-77 GHz includes also infrastructure radars in the current regulation; it’s also used at railway level crossings or airplanes during taxiing  On-going compatibility studies in CEPT between automotive and fixed infrastructure radars (incl. ETSI creating new harmonised standard for fixed infrastructure radars)  Helicopter radar anti-collision application operating in 76-79 GHz  New results can be used in the next update of the EC Decision for Short Range Devices Note: 5.9 GHz 24 GHz, 63-64 GHz, 76-77 GHz, 77-81 GHz are covered by several EC Decisions

7. On-going activities in Europe for ITS (Intelligent Transportation systems) Revision of ECC Decision (08)01 and ECC Recommendation (08)01 – Target: relaxed unwanted emission limits ITS not restricted to road vehicles Regulators consider other transportation applications should share the ITS frequencies such as Urban Rail Systems (based on an analysis) – also future ITS applications-> driverless vehicles / autonomous systems New EC Mandate on urban transportation under development Co-existence issues with road tolling (several technical solutions) and on-going studies under 5 GHz Mandate from the EC (RLAN) Frequency rangeUsageRegulation 5 905 MHz to 5 925 MHzFuture ITS applicationsECC Decision (08)01 5 875 MHz to 5 905 MHz ITS safety (not limited to road safety!)

8. ITS frequency provisions in major markets

9. 63-64 GHz Identified since 1992, covered by ‘ITS regulation’ but can also be used by sensors Harmonised in EC Decision for SRDs and ECC Decision (09)01 Subject to review NOW No implementations (or near future) implementations in the market known (although there is a work item for revision of the harmonised European standard and information in ITU-R) Competing interests (e.g. unlicensed FWA) -> the band is available worldwide under general authorisations Regulators have asked ETSI to provide information (if any): if nothing ‘tangible’ is provided, there is a chance that the band can get lost for automotive applications

10. Status in Frequency regulation ITS entries in frequency tables recognized as application in the mobile service (5.9 GHz, 63-64 GHz) All other entries recognized as ‘short range devices’, under Art. 4.4 of the Radio Regulations, i.e. no protection status, no connection to any radio service allocation World Radio Conference 2015 Agenda item 1.18 to consider a primary allocation to the radiolocation service for automotive applications in the 77.5-78.0 GHz frequency band in accordance with Resolution 654 (WRC-12). Conference preparatory actions continue discussions on whether the new allocation to the radiolocation in the band 77.5-78 should be generic or restricted through a footnote to radar systems described in ITU-R Recommendation M.2057. No agreement reached yet. AI 1.18 relevant for some administrations outside Europe before they implement 77-81 GHz SRR. Example Japan: today: 78-81 GHz SRR. SRD status also provides an advantage: issues not linked to WRC (more flexible) ‘De-facto protection’ when importance in the market (see road tolling)

11. Outside of Europe ITU-R Report M.2153 or regional reports such as APT Report 35 (see in www.afis.dk) reveal that there are still a considerable number of countries having not implemented certain regulatory provisions to allow car sensorswww.afis.dk Ultra-wideband: only Europe having a regulatory section for ‘vehicle use’ – many differences worldwide, e.g. mitigation techniques (see also the following page). CEPT Report 45 provides an overview of the vehicle related provisions -> 6 th Update SRD (permanent mandate) 76-77 GHz: In 2011-14, a considerable number of countries introduced regulations for 77 GHz SRR: Canada, USA, Mexico, China, India, Japan (may increase in near future to 1 GHz), Korea, Singapore. CEPT prepares input to ITU-R WP1B June 2015 to foster additional harmonisation (under RESOLUTION 54) 77-81 GHz is THE major issue in international harmonisation (e.g. FCC proposing part 95 inclusion, not part 15)
