11. ATDI – April 23rd 2004 Spectrum belongs to the nation and is managed by the regulator. Regulator issue temporary license of use of frequency band. Regulator issue allotment into geographical area for each type of frequency and its coverage. Regulator mission and objectives

12. ATDI – April 23rd 2004 Spectrum regulators must : –O–O–O–Optimize the use of the spectrum –C–C–C–Create marketable radio cadastres –P–P–P–Providing the use of such cadastres versus license –L–L–L–Licenses ensure maximum income to the state –L–L–L–Licenses open the way to competition –E–E–E–End product or service less expensive to the end users Regulator mission and objectives

13. ATDI – April 23rd 2004 Spectrum regulators must secure issues related to : – N– N– N– National security, – M– M– M– Military/police use of the spectrum, – S– S– S– Secure security and public hazard issues, – T– T– T– Type approval of transmission equipment, – A– A– A– Aeronautical and maritime navigation. Regulator mission and objectives

14. ATDI – April 23rd 2004 Spectrum regulators must organize all coordination issues : –W–W–W–Within the various body using radio transmission (operators, broadcasters, individuals, army, etc…) –W–W–W–With the neighboring countries to minimize interferences –B–B–B–Between the users of the spectrum and the public for health hazard Regulator mission and objectives

15. ATDI – April 23rd 2004 Spectrum regulators must : –Optimize the use of the spectrum by ensuring maximum of incomes to the state –Secure issues related to national security and military/police use of the spectrum –Secure security and public hazard issues –Secure aeronautical and maritime navigation related communication –Coordinates with the neighboring countries to minimize interferences –Provide a maximum of licenses –Preserve the best guarantee of operation –Manage the technical and commercial data in a precise way –Treat any updates without delay Regulator mission and objectives

16. ATDI – April 23rd 2004 Coordination and information exchange are essential to the good walk of the relations between regulators and operators They must : –Exchange a great information volume in timely manner –Exploit the licenses as quickly as possible –Stand in full conformity to the national and international regulations –Optimize their mutual coordination with adapted tools dedicated to –Numerical systems of management of the spectrum –Technologies of communication and transfer of large volume of data Exchanges between regulator & operators

18. ATDI – April 23rd 2004 Appropriate tools & procedure exists that : – Establish a database of spectrum usage – Correlate frequencies within a specific territory – Take into consideration possible interferences – Exchange of information between regulators and operators is essential – Coordinate with neighboring countries International coordination

20. ATDI – April 23rd 2004 This require a precise management of the allotted frequencies in the Ukrainian spectrum The demand will have to satisfy : - commercial, - industrial, - social, - military, - cultural needs. Ukraine’s development requires an increasing demand of services (broadcast & multicasts) Economic development

21. ATDI – April 23rd 2004 The advent of new technologies The proper management of the spectrum The need to introduce new services are the cornerstone to the economic development : –creating new market –creating new jobs –increasing the social public impact Outcom of the license fee

22. ATDI – April 23rd 2004 Make Money The operators who pay their license and intervene on strongly competing markets must : –Provide the best service to lower cost for final customer by preserving a profit margin which enables them to make profitable the investment and to preserve their innovation capacity –Generate a sufficient income which combines : –maximum quality of service –lower cost for the customer Operator dilemna

23. ATDI – April 23rd 2004 Save Money The operators who pay their license and intervene on strongly competing markets must : –Deliver, in a timely manner, all of the information required by the regulator –Provide a maximum number of services, by optimizing the spectrum space allocated while preserving the best quality of the service for their customers –Exploit quickly and to the maximum all allocated frequencies –Manage the technical and commercial data in a precise way and to treat the updates without delay Operator dilemna
