Early 5G in six bands in three ranges

low-bands600 MHz and 700 MHz

for wide area coverage and deep indoor extended coverage

mid-bands 3300 – 4200 MHz and 4400 – 5000 MHz

for compromise for both very high capacity and excellent coverage

high-bands 24.25 – 29.5 GHz and 37.0 – 43.5 GHz

for the extremely high data rates, FWA and hot-spots coverage and very low latency

For the full 5G experience and capabilities requires spectrum in three frequency ranges already in the initial phase

3GPP NR Bands

— All essential 3GPP LTE bands are now also NR bands (28 bands) — First mmWave band for 5G implementation is 28 GHz band — Two major mmWave ranges specified; 24.25-29.5 GHz and 37-43.5 GHz

Relevant to initial 5G introduction in many countries (including Tokyo 2020 Olympics)

ITU WRC-19 19

Sharm el-Sheikh, Egypt

WRC-19 was the largest WRC ever with about 3500 participants Around 150 countries represented At the peak of the WRC it was almost 100 meetings sessions per day

ITU Radiocommunication Assembly (RA-19) was held October 21 – 25, concluding the study period 2015 – 2019 WRC-19 between October 28 – November 22, modified and updated the Radio Regulations (treaty) The first Conference Preparatory Meeting for WRC-23 (CPM23/1) on November 25-26, prepared for the next study period

ITU WRCs

Terms of Reference Responsible for modifications of Radio Regulations — Internationally binding regulations (treaty) — Spectrum and usage conditions Held once every 4th year — Ericsson participated in national delegations, and — Perform preparatory technical work and studies The agenda is decided for future WRCs — WRC-19 decided for WRC-23 and WRC-27 WRCs designate uses of spectrum allocations — Opportunities for future 5G users

Spectrum is “oxygen” to 5G

Global Identification to 5G (IMT) allocations in the Radio Regulations

24.25 - 27.5 GHz

eventually the entire band may become available in most countries, a total amount of 3.25 gigahertz

37.0 – 43.5 GHz

the entire frequency range will not be implemented in most countries/regions, around 3 GHz is expected to be available in general

66.0 – 71.0 GHz

global identification to IMT except possibly in some countries in Americas – also pushed for unlicensed use for RLAN (Wi-Fi) In total, more than

11 gigahertz

is thus available in most countries may be used for eMBB, cMTC (including IIoT) etc

Identification to 5G (IMT)

Country footnotes in the Radio Regulations

45.5 – 47.0 GHz

more than 60 countries, representing all three regions, a majority in Africa

47.2 – 48.2 GHz

all countries in Americas and with additional country footnotes for countries in Africa, Europe and Middle East and Asia-Pacific, almost 100 countries in total

additional countries wanted to join the footnote, but was objected by some few countries these bands both have primary mobile allocations, therefore any country can implement 5G when they so wish ecosystem will initially be developed based

Candidate bands not identified to 5G (IMT)

31.4 – 32.6 GHz range is secured for continued use for backhaul systems 47.0 – 47.2 GHz too small for 5G 48.2 – 50.2 GHz limited support from countries 50.4 – 52.6 GHz passive satellite service on both sides limits possible use 71.0 – 76.0 / 81.0 – 86.0 GHz range is secured for continued use for backhaul systems

Summary & Way Forward

✓ Mid-bands 3300-3800 and 4500-4600/4800-4990 MHz gain momentum - in live ecosystem and from interest in WRC-19 ✓ The 28 GHz band is the first mmWave band for 5G implementation ongoing ✓ Mid-bands 3800-4200 MHz and 5925/6425-7125 MHz achieves increased interest ✓ IMT identification in WRC-19 in the mmWave ranges; 26 GHz, 40 GHz, 47 GHz and 66 GHz – in total 17.25 GHz for IMT ✓ Sufficient protection for EESS in bands adjacent to IMT was agreed during the WRC-19 of ITU Radio Regulations international treaty document to be the following (coming into force by January 1, 2021); ▪ for unwanted emissions into the 23.6 – 24.0 GHz band the values are; -33 dBW/200MHz for base stations, and -29 dBW/200MHz for mobile stations; and ▪ for unwanted emission into the 36.0 – 37.0 GHz band the values are; -43 dBW/MHz and −23 dBW/GHz
