  • 1.1307 (environmental requirements). We tentatively conclude that all of these technical rules and the technical rules discussed below would apply to all 4.9 GHz licensees, regardless of the actual service provided or technology used, including those licensees who acquire licenses through partitioning of service areas or disaggregation of spectrum. We seek comment on these proposals. 1. In-Band Interference Control Section 27.55 of the Commission's Rules provides that the field strength at any location on the border of a 2.3 GHz licensee's service area shall not exceed 47 dBuV/m unless licensees operating in adjacent areas agree to a higher field strength along their mutual borders. In addition to Part 27, we note that the Commission has permitted flexibility in services and technologies

  • specified in a flexible use service. See 47 C.F.R. § 22.907. Service may be provided without harmful interference in intersystem border areas if licensees, each with detailed knowledge of the particular service and technology that they have decided to use, coordinate their spectrum usage near the border areas, especially where technologies and services differ. See 47 C.F.R. §§ 24.236, § 27.55. The use of a field strength limit does not necessarily prevent interference from occurring, but does allow licensees to have some idea of the worst-case undesired field strengths that could be encountered at the border of their systems. See Upper 700 MHz First Report and Order, 15 FCC Rcd at 515, ¶ 96. Id. Id. The field strength limit adopted

These provisions provide flexibility for licensees to employ other measures to limit or prevent interference , such as use of robust technologies, partitioning the use of frequencies, taking advantage of terrain shielding and other propagation effects, and use of directional antennas. See, e.g., 47 C.F.R. § 27.55 (2305-2320, 746-764 and 776-794 MHz bands), § 101.509 (24 GHz band).

Examples of services where service areas are defined exclusively on the basis of signal strength limits at geographic borders include the lower 700 MHz band (47 C.F.R. § 27.55(a)(2)), broadband PCS (47 C.F.R. § 24.236), Part 27 services in the 2305-2320 and 2345-2360 MHz bands (47 C.F.R. § 27.55(a)(1)), and Part 27 services in the 1390-1395 and 1432-1435 MHz bands (47 C.F.R. § 27.55(a) (3)).

If we authorize a single licensee in these bands, it will not be necessary to adopt co-channel interference protection criteria. Our co-channel protection rules would, however, apply to any partitioned portions of a nationwide license. See 47 C.F.R. § 27.55. With this method, a licensee would be required to limit the field strength of its transmissions to some prescribed level at its geographic border. Under this approach, licensees operating on the same spectrum in adjacent areas would be required to coordinate the location of their stations. We note that a 40 dB(V/m field strength limit is used in the 700

We therefore seek comment on whether AWS-3 licensees should be permitted to operate base and fixed stations at power levels greater than 1640 watts EIRP and, if so, what additional technical requirements they should have to meet if operating at such power levels, e.g., the provisions of Section 27.55(b) of our rules. We also seek comment on whether we should adopt a power spectral density rule that would allow for more radiated power, the specific amount being proportional to emission bandwidth, as raised in the Further Notice in the 2005 Biennial Review proceeding. Specifically, we ask whether we should adopt rules that implement a PSD model for defining power

On the other hand, we note that the new rules allow a licensee to exceed the signal strength established at the border of their geographic service area if no affected licensee is providing service. See 47 C.F.R. § 27.55(a)(4) (2005). IRTV should thoroughly evaluate its facilities to determine whether modifications are necessary to comply with the new rules. We note that pursuant to a special temporary authorization (STA), IRTV may continue to operate the existing facilities until May 10, 2005. We believe that the STA should give IRTV sufficient time to evaluate its facilities under the new rules and

Therefore, the second prong of the competing provider test is satisfied.

Service may be provided without harmful interference in intersystem border areas if licensees, each with detailed knowledge of the particular service and technology that they have decided to use, coordinate their spectrum usage near the border areas, especially where technologies and services differ. See 47 C.F.R. §§ 24.236, § 27.55. The use of a field strength limit does not necessarily prevent interference from occurring, but does allow licensees to have some idea of the worst-case undesired field strengths that could be encountered at the border of their systems. See Upper 700 MHz First Report and Order, 15 FCC Rcd at 515, ¶ 96. Id. Id. The field strength limit adopted

However, based on Federal Communications Commission FCC 97-50 See generally BellSouth News Release, "BellSouth Acquires Wireless Cable of Atlanta," released February 12, 1997 351 (BellSouth expects to "begin providing digital cable TV service to households in the Atlanta area in late 1997"). See NPRM, Appendix at § 27.55, 61 FR at 9064. 352 79 the record before us, we are not persuaded that the operation of WCS facilities would irreparably harm the MDS and ITFS services. Without a clear sense of what particular services WCS licensees will provide, and how soon these will be operational, the interference impact of WCS operations on MDS/ITFS is unclear. Therefore we believe

We tentatively conclude that all of these technical rules and the technical rules discussed below would apply to all 4.9 GHz licensees, regardless of the actual service provided or technology used, including those licensees who acquire licenses through partitioning of service areas or disaggregation of spectrum. We seek comment on these proposals. 1. In-Band Interference Control Section 27.55 of the Commission's Rules provides that the field strength at any location on the border of a 2.3 GHz licensee's service area shall not exceed 47 dBuV/m unless licensees operating in adjacent areas agree to a higher field strength along their mutual borders.
