9、io-frequency channel and block arrangements for fixed wireless systems (FWS) operating in the 71-76/81-86 GHz range, which may be used for broadband applications and other high-speed networks. The preferred arrangements are based on common homogeneous pattern with elementary slots of 125 MHz. The pr
10、eferred radio-frequency block arrangements are based on 5 GHz sub-band or block possibly subdivided to form smaller blocks. The preferred channel arrangement provides flexible identification of channel sizes from 250 MHz to 4 500 MHz and duplex frequency either of 2.5 GHz (single sub-band, 71-76 GHz
11、 or 81-86 GHz, arrangement) or 10 GHz (joint sub-bands, 71-76 GHz and 81-86 GHz together, arrangements). The ITU Radiocommunication Assembly, considering a) that there is a particular need for fixed wireless systems (FWS) for large data capacity transport, e.g. for uncompressed high-definition telev
12、ision (HDTV) signal transmission or for mobile networks applications, the deployment of which is expected to rapidly grow; b) that the frequency bands 71-76 GHz and 81-86 GHz are allocated to the fixed service; c) that the propagation characteristics in these bands are ideally suited for use of shor
13、t-range high capacity digital radio links in high-density networks; d) that in these frequency bands high directivity antennas are achievable even with small size antennas, increasing the density of equipment and further reducing risk of interference with same and other services; e) that several ser
14、vices with various transmission signal characteristics and capacities may be in simultaneous use in this frequency band; f) that the applications in this frequency band may require different channel bandwidths; g) that, in some cases, a flexible sub-band or block arrangement, can accommodate various
15、 FWS technologies, whilst remaining consistent with good spectrum management principles, including provision for inter-systems/services operation and overall spectrum efficiency; h) that, when link-by-link frequency coordination is applied, the definition of radio-frequency channel arrangements is p
16、referable; j) that careful frequency planning permits accommodation of frequency division duplex (FDD) and time division duplex (TDD) applications; k) that different applications licensed by various administrations may require different radio-frequency channel arrangements; l) that, in some countrie
17、s, only limited portions of the two bands may be available for civil applications; m) that some countries may wish to or already have made these bands available through a flexible simplified approach without any specific channel plan, 2 Rec. ITU-R F.2006 noting a) that Recommendation ITU-R F.1519 pr
18、ovides guidance on frequency arrangements based on frequency blocks for systems in the fixed service; b) that Report ITU-R F.2107 provides characteristics and applications of fixed wireless systems operating in frequency ranges between 57 GHz and 134 GHz, recommends 1 that administrations wishing to
19、 implement a radio-frequency channel or block arrangement for the 71-76 GHz and 81-86 GHz bands should consider the following homogeneous pattern of 125 MHz slots: fn = 71.0625 + 0.125 (n 1) GHz where: fn : centre frequency of the n-th slot n = 1 to 40 for the band 71-76 GHz 81 to 120 for the band 8
20、1-86 GHz; 2 that administrations wishing to use specific radio-frequency channels or blocks should have size multiple of 250 MHz and should be composed by aggregating 2 or a higher even number of frequency slots from the homogeneous pattern; 3 that administrations wishing to assign sub-bands or freq
21、uency blocks for FWS in the frequency bands 71-76/81-86 GHz, should consider the sub-bands or block arrangements presented in Annex 1; 4 that administrations should consider the adoption of carrier centre frequencies, within the preferred frequency blocks, from the channel slots of 250 MHz, as deriv
22、ed in recommends 2; 5 that administrations wishing to assign pre-defined channels of 250 MHz, or multiples thereof, either paired or unpaired, should consider the flexible channel arrangements illustrated in Annex 2.

35、multiple size FDD/TDD aggregated channels in frequency bands 71-76/81-86 GHz A multiple sizes channel arrangement for these bands depends on the basic assumptions that an administration makes for the deployment, e.g.: TDD, FDD or their mixed use of the band; Paired FDD assignments with fixed duplex;
36、 FDD channels paired either in each single band or in cross-band pairing, or both contemporarily; For maximum flexibility all possible channel size of N 250 MHz are described in the arrangements. N = 1, 2, 9 resulting in channel size from 250 MHz to 2 250 MHz as described in Fig. 6 for the separate
37、arrangements in 71-76 GHz or 81-86 GHz sub-bands with duplex separation 2.5 GHz. N = 1, 2, 18 resulting in channel size from 250 MHz to 4 500 MHz as described in Fig. 7 for the joint arrangement in both 71-76 GHz and 81-86 GHz sub-bands with 10 GHz duplex separation. In this case channels from 250 M
38、Hz to 2 250 MHz maintain the same centre frequency of the corresponding channels in previous separate arrangements; this makes easier, when necessary, the contemporary coordination of systems with 2.5 GHz and 10 GHz duplex separation. 6 Rec.
