U-NII II-6 (6425–6525 525 MHz) z) U-NII NII-8 (6875–7125 25 MHz) z)

  • Fixed Links – Studio-to-Transmitter and Intercity Relay (STL/ICR)
  • Most in 6875–7125 MHz
  • Engineered for high reliability
  • Standard frequency coordination practices generally apply (TIA TSB-10)
  • Mobile ENG – Portable Cameras and News Trucks
  • Most 6425-6525 MHz – Nationwide
  • 6875-7125 MHz – Used in many large urban markets
  • See WT Docket 10-153 Order, August 9, 2011, para 20 and 23
  • Typical Power levels: 0.01 to 0.5 watts
  • Portable camera uses can be indoors or outdoors
  • No database of ENG operations
  • Operation is generally based on “home channel” plans
  • On-site, near real-time coordination used at large events

  • Three mobile use cases:
  • Indoor portable camera
  • Outdoor portable camera
  • ENG truck to central receive site
  • RLANs checked for LOS
  • Only LOS IX cases considered
  • Indoor RLANs (95%), incl. bldg. loss
  • Mix of plain glass and Low-e, 70/30
  • 1 RLAN/person assumed
  • 50% have 6 GHz capability
  • 10% and 0.44% TX activity factors
  • 20/40/80/160 MHz BWs
  • EIRP 0.2 W indoor; 4 W outdoor

Assumed umed RLAN N Chara ract cteristics eristics

  • 6 GHz characteristics generally based on observed 5 GHz RLAN characteristics
  • EIRP distributions emphasize low power levels per ITU-R 5A/1065
  • Antenna elevation pattern suppresses energy at steep elevation angles per

ITU-R M.1652-1, 2019

  • Bandwidths distributed per 5A/1065, result in low probabilities of overlap

with 20 MHz ENG channel

  • 70% of indoor RLANs assumed in “traditional” buildings; 30% in thermally-

efficient buildings. Loss distributions per ITU-R P.2109-1 and P.2346.

  • Example case:
  • ~2/3 of snapshots exceed

IX threshold of -10 dB I/N

  • ~1/2 exceed -6 dB
  • ~10% exceed +20 dB (RLAN

  • IX due to OOBE was a significant

contributor in indoor cases
