1、 5G Observatory Quarterly Report 7 Up to March 2020 A study prepared for the European Commission DG Communications Networks, Content - providing operators with investment certainty and predictability for at least 20 years in terms of spectrum individual licensing; - ensuring better coordination of p
2、lanned radio spectrum assignments; - supporting the entry of new spectrum users and economic operators through increased recourse to shared use of radio spectrum and general authorisation where possible, as well as easier spectrum trading and leasing; - facilitating the deployment of 5G networks by
3、introducing a light authorisation regime for small- area wireless access points; - facilitating the roll-out of new, very high capacity fixed networks by making rules for co- investment more predictable and promoting risk sharing in the deployment of very high capacity networks; - promoting sustaina
4、ble competition for the benefit of consumers, with a regulatory emphasis on the real bottlenecks, such as wiring, ducts and cables inside buildings; and a specific regulatory regime for wholesale only operators. - ensuring close cooperation between the Commission and the Body of European Regulators
5、for Electronic Communications (BEREC), including in supervising measures related to the new access provisions on co-investment and symmetric regulation. According to the UHF Decision of 20107 (EU) 2017/899) all Member States are required to adopt national roadmaps regarding the licensing of the 700
6、MHz band. On April 24, 2019, the European Commission discussed the authorisation processes under way with 26 Member States. The discussion on the objectives for such award procedures focused on issues such as how to define and achieve territorial coverage objectives, timely and sufficient spectrum t

8、enting the 3.4-3.8 GHz frequency band and enabling participation of vertical industries are additional issues raised by the RSPG and to be tackled in the coming months. In the last quarter 2019, the Electronic Communications Committee (ECC) of the CEPT issued a draft recommendation to a public consu
9、ltation on “guidelines to support the introduction of 5G while ensuring, in a proportionate way, the use of existing and planned FSS transmitting earth stations in the frequency band 24.65-25.25 GHz and the possibility for future deployment of these earth stations”. The ECC also issued a consultatio
10、n on cross-border coordination for three mobile broadband bands (700 MHz, L-Band and 3.4-3.8 GHz frequencies). Seven additional 5G PPP projects (5G-SOLUTIONS, 5G-TOURS, 5GDrones, 5G-HEART, 5GROWTH, 5G- SMART, 5G-VICTORI) were launched early June 2019 closer involving vertical industries. Eight “long
11、er term vision” H2020 projects started in November 2019: ARIADNE, 5G-CLARITY, 5G- COMPLETE, INSPIRE-5Gplus, LOCUS, MonB5G, TERAWAY and 5GZORRO. Progress of national strategies and plans Most EU MSs started to examine 5G strategic issues through public consultations, often followed by 5G strategy doc
12、uments in 2016 or 2017. The 5G strategies generally result from a national broadband strategy defined earlier in 2015 or 2016 and lasting up to 2020. In order to facilitate a consistent approach across Europe, the European Commission has published in November 2018 a Report4 summarising the best prac
13、tices and common elements that could be considered for national 5G strategies. The work done with experts from EU Member States covers key issues that range from deployment targets, spectrum and small cells to public financing programmes and 5G innovation support. 2.2.1. Consultations: 27 EU MSs plu
14、s the UK have launched public consultations on 5G By end March 2020, 27 EU MSs had finalised public consultations on 5G spectrum/strategy: Austria (2017, 2019), Belgium (2018, January 2020), Bulgaria (December 2018), Croatia (2019), Cyprus (September 2019), Czech Republic (early 2019, July 2019, Feb
15、ruary 2020), Denmark (March 2018), Estonia (October 2019) Finland (2018), France (December 2017, October 2018, May 2019, July 2019, September 2019, December 2019), Germany (2018), Greece (2018, 2019, February 2020), Hungary (2019), Ireland (2019), Italy (2017), Lithuania (2018), Luxembourg (2018, Ma

National strategies The national 5G strategies adopted to date have a number of facets as the 5G roadmaps set concrete targets, define priority areas and milestones. A spectrum section
19、provides details on 5G potential auctions to be held in different 5G pioneer bands, and trial licences are often considered. Funding methods are presented and discussed, and measures to stimulate and mobilise key players from the telecom and vertical industries are also considered. The review of pro
20、gress made towards 5G market introduction shows various stages. Eleven MSs (plus the UK) published fully-fledged national 5G roadmaps including spectrum strategies (Austria, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Luxembourg, Spain, Sweden, The Netherlands, and the UK). In 2019, six Member State
21、s had planned to publish their 5G strategies: Cyprus (planned 1/19, not published yet but 5G spectrum auction scheduled for March 2020), Malta (planned 3/19, not published yet Malta issued a discussion paper on 5G Demand and Business Models in May 2019), Hungary (planned 4/19, not published yet, but
22、 the multi-band auction process has been launched in July 2019 and rescheduled in 10/195), Portugal (planned 7/19, but spectrum auction scheduled between March and June 2020), Croatia (planned Q4/19, not published yet but auction planned for March 2020), and Lithuania (planned by end of 2019, not pu
23、blished yet). In Romania, following the public consultation on 5G strategy late in 2018, ANCOM initially scheduled the multi-band spectrum auction for year-end 2019 and postponed it in November 2019 to year-end 2020. Slovenia asked for comments on its spectrum strategy published in May 2019. But the
24、 topic was removed from the governments agenda. Other countries provided details on their plans to award 5G pioneer frequencies: In Belgium, BIPT consulted early 2020 on the considered unique fee for the 3.4-3.8 GHz band, on the possibility to extend 2G and 3G authorisations beyond the initial plann
25、ed date of 15 March 2021 and on the possibility for IBPT to authorise 4G or 5G local private networks in the 3.8-4.2 GHz frequencies. In France, the four bidders (the current mobile network operators) for the 3.4-3.6 GHz spectrum auction have been unveiled by the telecom regulator. In Finland, the r
26、egulator announced that the 26 GHz assignment process should take place in summer 2020 and that the lowest 850 MHz of the band could be reserved for verticals. In Portugal, the multi-band auction process for 700/900/1800/2100/2600 and 3600 MHz spectrum is scheduled for April-June 2020 In Luxembourg,
27、 ILR held a consultation from 13 March to 10 April 2020 on the assignment of 700 MHz and 3.6 GHz spectrum. In Czechia, CTU plans to set aside spectrum for verticals and define spectrum caps in its upcoming 700 MHz and 3.4-3.6 GHz auction. In 2019, three Member States had updated their national broad
28、band strategies or spectrum strategies. In Austria, the government announced a new national broadband strategy up to 2030 with specific coverage goals (5G coverage along main roads by year-end 2023, nationwide coverage by year-end 5 In Hungary, the National Media and InfoCommunications Authority has
29、 not published a fully-fledged 5G roadmap yet but started the 5G auction process for 700/2100/2600 and 3600 MHz frequencies in July 2019. 5G Observatory Quarterly Report #7 www.idate.org IDATE DigiWorld 2020 p. 16 2025). In Germany, a new mobile strategy was issued in September 2019. As part of this
30、 strategy, an agreement between authorities and 5G spectrum licences was signed. The five-point agreement aims at speeding up the planning, approval and development of 4G and 5G networks. It includes measures to close gaps in 4G mobile coverage and to position Germany as a 5G market leader. In the N
31、etherlands, the new spectrum plan schedules a multi-band spectrum auction (700/1400/2100 MHz) for June 2020. 5G Observatory Quarterly report #7 www.idate.org IDATE DigiWorld 2020 p. 17 5G scoreboard 2.3.1. 5G scoreboard EU-27 plus the UK The 5G scoreboard summarizes the status of 5G trials, spectrum
