1 April 2009 doc.: IEEE /xxxxr0 May 2015 FCC Citizen Band Radio Service Spectrum Sharing in MHz Band Date: Authors: Rich Kennedy, MediaTek Rich Kennedy, Research In Motion

2 April 2009 doc.: IEEE /xxxxr0 May 2015 Abstract This presentation is a description of the FCC proceeding that enables sharing of the 3.5 GHz band, and suggestions for Comments that the Regulatory SC could file. Rich Kennedy, MediaTek Rich Kennedy, Research In Motion

3 Agenda The 3.5 GHz band FCC 15-47 summary Usage Categories
May 2015 Agenda The 3.5 GHz band FCC summary The Report & Order (R&O) The Second Further Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (FNPRM) Usage Categories Licensed Incumbents FCC Part 96 – Citizen Band Radio Service Priority Access Licenses General Authorized Access Potential Comments R&O Second FNPRM Rich Kennedy, MediaTek

4 The 3.5 GHz Band Today 3550-3650 MHz 3650-3700 MHz Exclusion zones
May 2015 The 3.5 GHz Band Today MHz Federal radars Fixed Satellite Services (FSS) MHz FSS WiMAX including utility networks IEEE y Exclusion zones Naval radars Rich Kennedy, MediaTek

5 May 2015 The 3.5 GHz Band Rich Kennedy, MediaTek

6 May 2015 Footnote US349: The band MHz is also allocated to the Federal radiolocation service on a non-interference basis for use by ship stations located at least 44 nautical miles in off-shore ocean areas on the condition that harmful interference is not caused to non-Federal operations. Rich Kennedy, MediaTek

7 Federal Exclusion Zones

8 FSS Protection Zones in 3650-3700 MHz
May 2015 FSS Protection Zones in MHz Rich Kennedy, MediaTek

9 FCC 15-47 Report & Order Final rules for operation in this band
May 2015 FCC Report & Order Final rules for operation in this band Three level spectrum sharing Spectrum Access System (SAS) database control Licensed incumbents Part 96: Priority Access Licenses (PALs) and General Authorized Access (GAA) Changes from FCC NPRM 3-year PAL non renewable term vs 1-year renewable 5 times Federal exclusion zones reduced by 77% No 5-year limit on grandfathered FSS Addition of Environmental Sensing Capability (ESC) New categories: Category A CBSDs for lower-power (e.g., small cell) Category B CBSDs, authorized for higher-power, directional, higher-gain use No reservation for Contained Access Facilities (“CAFs”). Rich Kennedy, MediaTek

10 The Tiers First Tier - Incumbents
May 2015 The Tiers First Tier - Incumbents Federal users Fixed Satellite Services (FSS) Second Tier – Priority Licenses (PALs) Must not interfere with Tier 1 10 MHz channels in the MHz band [none in MHz] On a census-tract basis, for three-year terms, no option to renew Dynamically assigned via Spectrum Access System (SAS) A maximum of 70 MHz in any census tract Licensees may hold a maximum of four licenses in any area, i.e. 40 MHz Third Tier – General Authorized Access Must not interfere with Tiers 1 and 2 License-by-rule framework May access PA spectrum when it is not in “use” Rich Kennedy, MediaTek

11 Maximum Conducted Output Power
May 2015 TX Power Limits  Device Geographic Area Maximum Conducted Output Power (dBm/10 megahertz)** Maximum EIRP (dBm/10 megahertz) Maximum Conducted PSD (dBm/MHz) End User Device All n/a 23 Category A CBSD 24 30 14 Category B CBSD* Non-Rural 40 Rural 47 20 Rich Kennedy, MediaTek

12 FCC 15-47 Second FNPRM Defining “Use” of PAL Frequencies
May 2015 FCC Second FNPRM Defining “Use” of PAL Frequencies What constitutes “use”? Can a PAL be used as a guard band? Can a PAL be used to exclude GAA use? Use-or-share requirement Implementing Secondary Markets in PALs Optimizing Protections for FSS In-band Out of band Rich Kennedy, MediaTek

13 Potential Comments Report & Order Second FNPRM
May 2015 Potential Comments Report & Order Would require a Petition for Reconsideration, a very high bar Explanation for inconsistencies in protected FSS site listings Between FCC and FCC 14-49 Between FCC and Second FNPRM Defining “Use” of PAL Frequencies Implementing Secondary Markets in PALs Optimizing Protections for FSS In-band Out of band Rich Kennedy, MediaTek
