October 2017 doc. : IEEE 802. 18 -17/0125 r 0 The Mid-band NOI • 3700 MHz to 4200 MHz • • • For unlicensed sharing C-band uplinks Fixed microwave links 6425 MHz to 7125 MHz • • • T-Mobile petition to extend PALs, etc. 5925 MHz to 6425 MHz • • CBRS extension band? Opportunity for additional unlicensed sharing Asks for additional licensed space Other bands between 3. 7 GHz and 24 GHz Comment period ends October 2, 2017 Reply Comment period ends November 1, 2017 Agenda Slide 7 Rich Kennedy, HP Enterprise

October 2017 doc. : IEEE 802. 18 -17/0125 r 0 Comments of Concern • Opposition to any unlicensed operations in the 6 GHz band • Self explanatory • Support for “database-driven (SAS) controlled general authorized access” to the 6 GHz band – SAS too complex for Wi-Fi in 6 GHz • CBRS-type SAS more complex than required in 6 GHz • Support for indoor use only • Could restrict 6 GHz in mobile devices • Failure to share in 5. 3 GHz indicates that Wi-Fi cannot share in 6 GHz • Sharing with radars and sharing with FS very different issues • Many C-band (receive) earth stations are unregistered, but still must be protected • Agenda Seemingly only for 3. 7 GHz band, comment does not specify Slide 9 Rich Kennedy, HP Enterprise
