Objectives
The activity has been initiated to provide support to the European and Canadian industry such that the outcome of the WRC-19 would be favourable to the satellite communication sector as a whole.
Avanti has implemented the activity, and has categorised in collaboration with TIA and satellite sector the WRC-19 agenda items that are either “High threat”, “Low threat” or “Opportunity” for satellite services. The JCB has been briefed on these threats and opportunities.
A topic which was considered High threat, were the increased pressure from mobile operator community to access satellite spectrum. The activity, in collaboration with the satellite industry is did everything possible to avoid access to satellite bands identified by the WRC-19 resolution even though it seems likely that over 20 GHz of additional spectrum will be identified for IMT-2020 / 5G. The activity provided at numerous occasions material to advocate solutions and compromises that would be in favour of the satellite industry.
Current Status
The project has been completed in 2018.
