1 Satellite Broadband Spectrum: Connectivity Needs & WRC Agenda Item 1.1 Christopher Sivertz Master Instructor GVF

2 WRC AI 1.1: C-band Stakes and Stakeholders The Issue WRC-15 Agenda Item 1.1 will consider additional spectrum generally for International Mobile Telecommunications (IMT) and other mobile broadband applications including C-band Major Industries and a Growing Number of NRAs Support the NOC Position The Problem Such use is not compatible with the existing operations in C-band, including FSS, radar systems and fixed point-to-point links. Next Steps The Satellite User Community Representing Billions in Economic and Social Impact -- Are Standing Together Again New Sharing Studies New Forecasting Studies New Usage Studies Same Goal: NOC

3 C-band Satellite User Groups: Achieving Policy Goals and Economic Objectives Maritime Communications Aviation Security Wireless Extension Services Telemedicine Corporate Networks C-band Distance Education Internet Connectivity Peace Keeping TV contribution Disaster Preparedness C-band satellite applications increase teledensity rates, provide distance education and telemedicine, enable broadband to rural areas, and more

4 WBU ISOG Position on C-band

5 One WBU Member s Concerns

6 ICAO NOC POSITION AT WRC -15 AGENDA ITEM 1.1 To oppose any new allocation to the mobile service in or adjacent to: - frequency bands allocated to aeronautical safety services (ARNS, AM(R)S, AMS(R)S); or - frequency bands used by fixed satellite service (FSS) systems for aeronautical purposes as part of the ground infrastructure for transmission of aeronautical and meteorological information of for AMS(R)S feeder links, unless it has been demonstrated through agreed studies that there will be no impact on aeronautical services.

7 UN World Food Program WRC Position WFP delivers food assistance to nearly 90 million beneficiaries around the globe. To efficiently full-fill the mandate, our field operations critically depend on the global satellite network, operating in excess of 240 sites on all continents. All of these sites operate in the C and extended-c segment of the frequency spectrum. Needless to say that WFP supports any initiative that will assure an interference free, seamless service as we experience today.

8 GVF VSAT Installer Survey, 2014 (1 st 72 Hours) 3,300: Number of C-band VSATs the Respondents Were Associated With 17%, 8% & 75%: Installations That Are Rural, Semi-Urban, and Urban 303: Number of Terrestrial-Wireless Interference Incidents Reported 47%: Percentage of Interference Caused by WiMAX 28%: Percentage Caused by Unknown Sources Applications Affected: Peacekeeping, Energy, Maritime, ISPs, Wireless Backhaul, Education, Ministry Networks, News Distribution, Broadcasting

9 Asked About the Implications of C-band Re-Allocation A Broadcaster: We will not be in business and all our viewers will be stranded. An peacekeeping organization: "It would take more than 10 years to swap all the links. An ISP: "We will suffer."

10 Doing More Homework: Latest Surveys, Studies & Analysis CASBAA: Identified Millions of TVROs Globally NABA: Confirmed Sharing Incompatibility European Broadcasting Union: Reconfirmed New Extent of Use Studies for APAC Spectrum Demand Analysis Study Completed

11 Wireless Forecasts Have Overestimated Actual Adoption and Can Significantly Misjudge Actual Demand Wireless Local Loop Average Forecast vs Actuals, Forecasts 7 Companies Last information on "actuals" available Forecasts 12 Companies WiMax Forecast vs Actuals, numbers extrapolated based on most recent numbers Global Subscribers (M) Subscribers (M) Year Average Actuals Average Actuals Year Tremendous industry excitement in mid-1990s surrounding low cost, rural opportunities worldwide WLL forecasts, some projecting over 1.5B subscribers by 2002, significantly overestimated subscriber levels, time-to-market, and consumer demand WLL technology was largely overtaken by 2G cellular services Multiple standards and platforms increased equipment price Regulatory issues extended anticipated timeframe for commercial deployment WiMAXforecasts were overly optimistic WiMAX customers were approx. 1M subscribers in 2007 compared to some 15M+ average of 15 forecasts There were several potential obstacles for largescale commercial success: Consumer interest Equipment costs Regulatory issues Competition from other advanced terrestrial wireless and fiber technologies

12 Fast Forward to 2014 ITU WP-5D developed the Speculator to project future IMT requirements for additional spectrum For WRC-15, it predicts that MHz of spectrum will be required for IMT services by 2020 Analysis of the model inputs shows that the assumed traffic density (which drives spectrum requirement) is unrealistic Typical traffic density >200 times volume during 2014 World Cup Final Population density equivalent to densest 1 sq km in Tokyo Assumed usage of 200GB/subscriber per month Erroneous assumptions on WiFi offloading

13 More Historical Inaccuracies The same ITU model forecast that between 760 and 840 MHz of spectrum would be needed for IMT services by 2010 In reality, less than half that amount was available, and was carrying far more traffic than forecast Band Spectrum Region 1 (Europe, Middle East, Africa) Region 2 (The Americas and Caribbean) Region 3 (Asia and Australasia) 850 MHz (Band 5) // MHz 20 MHz 1 50 MHz 20 MHz 2 (2 x 25 MHz) 900 MHz (Band 8) // MHz 70 MHz 70 MHz 40 MHz 3 70 MHz (2 x 35 MHz) 1700 MHz (Band 4) // MHz 90 MHz Not used 90 MHz Not used (2 x 45 MHz) 1800 MHz (Band 3) // MHz 150 MHz (2 x 75 MHz) 150 MHz Some South American Countries 150 MHz 1900 MHz (Band 2) // MHz 120 MHz Rarely used 120 MHz 40 MHz 4 (2 x 60 MHz) 2100 MHz (Band 1) // MHz 120 MHz 120 MHz Not used 120 MHz (2 x 60 MHz) Best Case Assignment ~360 MHz ~360 MHz ~400 MHz

14 Traffic Density Comparison Should spectrum allocation be based on World-Cup Final traffic levels? Speculator traffic assumption per sq km vs Cisco traffic projection in urban areas (2020) Urban Suburban Rural Urban Benchmarks PB/mo/sq km SE1 SE2 SE3 SE4 SE5 SE6 US Japan UK Russia Brazil Home Office Public Home Office/Public

15 There is Still Plenty of Spectrum Available to be Licensed

18 Concluding Thoughts C-band ( ) Satellite Services Are Used Extensively to Support Major Socio-Economic Enterprise Throughout APAC and Worldwide. IMT Spectrum Needs Are Over-Stated Again But for Nations that Want to Permit IMT Deployments at C- band, the WRC-07 NOC Footnote Already Provides a Solution Support NOC for Agenda Item 1.1 at WRC-15

19 For More Information

20 C-Band Satellites in Service for Users Global Distribution of 36 MHz Transponder-Equivalents (TPE) per Band, Nov Total 5,642 TPE in Use At least 169 C-band satellites in geostationary orbit today Represents about $42-51 billion of inorbit investment, not including the investments in ground infrastructure. Substantial ongoing investment in C- band satellite capacity worldwide At least 52 satellites with C-band payloads have been launched in , representing $12-15 billion in investments. At least 35 satellites with C-band payloads are under construction and are scheduled to be launched in , representing $9-10 billion in investments. Source: NSR GEOs are long-lived assets; typical operational life is 15 years or more. Note: TPE count does not include multispot beam high throughput satellites Stable, consistent regulatory environment required throughout

22 Mission Critical Network Control Point-to-Multipoint C/Ku-Band Media Linear TV OTT/TV Everywhere HTS MEO-HTS IP Data Backhaul Point-to-Point Broadband Access The New Value Proposition Consumer Professional

23 Key Services Supported by C-band Satellites Media Distribution C-band is used to distribute media content around the world, including, e.g. - Cable distribution to 7038 cable head-ends around the United States, serving 60 million U.S. households - Cable distribution to 4711 cable head-ends in Latin America and the Caribbean, serving more than 29 million cable homes (2012) - 20 million receive-only C-band television dishes in Brazil alone Media Contribution Special events coverage (e.g. Olympics) Satellite news gathering Feeder Links for mobile-satellite services (MSS) Supporting public safety and emergency relief missions around the world.

24 Key Services Supported by C-band Satellites Rural and remote communications Internet and basic connectivity Cellular backhaul applications Mobility 3510 C-band Earth Stations on Vessels (ESVs) in 2012, providing video distribution, Internet and mobile backhaul Other C-band services, including Disaster recovery and preparedness Tracking, Telemetry & Command (TT&C) for many satellite systems in other frequency bands, for example, for launches

25 Unique Attributes of C-Band Satellite Services C-band satellite services cannot easily be replicated at other satellite bands or via terrestrial means Geographic reach. C-band easily covers entire continents and oceans and offers an economically viable way of providing intercontinental and global communications - Smaller or hard-to-reach markets and low density regions are covered as easily as metropolitan areas - Particularly ideal for point-to-multipoint applications (broadcast, widely-dispersed networks), and remote/rural deployment Resistance to rain-fade - C-band is less susceptible to signal interruptions from heavy rains than higher bands (Ku, Ka), making it better suited for tropical or high-rain areas at high availabilities

26 WRC-15 and IMT Under Agenda Item 1.1, ITU is tasked with identifying additional frequency bands for IMT Working Party 5D (WP 5D) is to identify suitable IMT frequency ranges Consider only the technical feasibility of operating IMT in the specified frequency range. Will NOT consider impact to/from other incumbent services Update IMT bandwidth requirements Provide/Update IMT parameters Joint Task Group (JTG ) Perform sharing studies Generate Conference Preparatory Meeting (CPM) Report Identify candidate frequency bands for IMT from the frequency ranges provided by WP 5D Administrations can propose IMT frequency bands separate from the frequency ranges proposed by WP 5D

27

28 Sharing between FSS & BWA/IMT is not feasible ITU studies Studies have concluded that protection distances of between km are necessary to allow co-frequency sharing between BWA/IMT systems and FSS earth stations, i.e. co-coverage sharing is not feasible Adjacent band protection distances to avoid LNB overload of FSS receivers are between km Considering that a typical city has a radius of 15 to 30 km, sharing between BWA/IMT systems and FSS receive earth stations is not realistic See Reports ITU-R M.2109 & S.2199 Government, strategic, and commercial FSS services in the C-band will suffer Resulting interference can cause signal delays, synchronization loss, blackout periods, blackout areas, and total loss of transmission Many countries Bolivia, Hong Kong, Indonesia, Fiji, to name a few have experienced interference when deploying BWA systems in C-band - WiMAX testing led to 30% of TV households in Bolivia missing some of World Cup Similar testing in Hong Kong led to 300,000 households across Asia to lose their TV service

29 Sharing between FSS & BWA/IMT is not feasible Sharing is exacerbated by a large number of receive only earth stations already deployed many of which are unregistered Shielding, for example, requires knowing the location of every earth station Further, site shielding is expensive and infeasible on a regional or worldwide basis

30 IMT usage of spectrum? MHz band has been made available for terrestrial mobile BWA / IMT through EU Commission Decision 2008/411/EC. This is available to and remain in use by the fixed satellite service (FSS), but there s no protection of space-to-earth transmissions in most EU countries. There has been very little, or simply no, uptake of these 400 MHz for BWA / IMT in 6 years. As a result, there was no interference case reported in Europe. There was decline in BWA use in Ireland, whilst Finland and Sweden have experienced return of BWA spectrum licenses. Most likely explanation for the lack of success of IMT in MHz is simply the lack of demand. Due to the relatively high frequency compared to most other terrestrial mobile bands, the coverage possible with C-band is very limited. Use of C-band for IMT was touted mostly as a solution for dense urban areas, but wide availability of WiFi might well undermine the suggested benefits of C-band.

31 Satellite Industry Concerns Renewed efforts to identify the GHz band for IMT WRC-07 studies demonstrated incompatibility of satellite services with IMT Interference from IMT transmissions into FSS receive stations Requires large distance separations between IMT stations and FSS earth stations No technology developments that change the compatibility analysis since 2007 to warrant different outcome at WRC-15

32 SAMPLE USE OF MHz BY THE FSS IN BRAZIL Brazilian Contribution at June CITEL Meeting (OEA/Ser.L/XVII.4.2 CCP.II- RADIO/doc. 974/06): No Better Band to Address Rain Attenuation Exclusion Zones Unworkable Developing Countries Can t Afford Equipment Changeout Conclusion: & MHz Should Not Be Considered for IMT
