Your response
| Question 1: Do you have any comments on our proposal to make Medium Power licences (42 dBm EIRP, up to 10m height) commonly available in urban areas across most of the UK, for the 3.8-4.2 GHz and 1800 MHz bands? | Confidential? – N
The FCS Supports this approach under the assumption that anyone can apply to obtain a licence through the Ofcom assignment process. |
| Question 2: Do you have any comments on our proposed balancing measures:
i) to continue to only grant Medium Power licences in the Greater London area (as defined in our mm Wave work) by exception, applying the ‘premises sterilisation’ test? ii) to apply a 100 MHz limit to the amount of spectrum a licensee can transmit at Medium Power in a particular urban area? iii) to apply a new price as part of this liberalisation, set at £160 per 10 MHz for Medium Power licences in urban areas? |
