This project aims to improve frequency utilization and coexistence for PMSE systems by implementing cognitive procedures. It focuses on developing components and test procedures, setting up a field trial platform, and collaborating with relevant regulatory bodies for frequency regulation and standardization.

C-PMSE – Improving frequency utilization and coexistence for PMSE systemsby cognitive procedures
PMSE – Programme Making Special Event • PMSE covers • Services Ancillary for Programme-Making (SAP) • Services Ancillary for Broadcasting (SAB) • Electronic News Gathering (ENG) and Outside Broadcasting (OB) As defined in ERC Report 38 and ERC Report 42 (see also ITU-R Report BT.2069 and ECC Report 002) including wireless production tools used for front-end solutions (audio, video, data) in the field of professional multimedia production (from radio and television to art, culture, conferences, trade fairs, entertainment applications, education, sport events and much more). • Examples for PMSE Components: • Video cameras • Microphones • In-ear monitors • Conference systems • Intercom devices • Data links (e.g. for remote control)
PWMS – Professional Wireless Mikrophone Systems PWMS is a part of PMSE and includes:All wireless equipment used at the front end of all professional audio productions, like: stage productions, public events, TV program production, installation in conference centres/rooms, city halls, musical and theatres, sport/event centres or other professional entities/ installations.

Example: PMSE SpectrumUsageat EUROVISION SONG CONTEST 2011, Germany PMSE devices(microphones , in-ear monitors, talk backs, … in total approx. 140 audio links) red: peakblue: meangreen: minimum 6780 records, RMS RBW = 100 kHz 8 MHz 8 MHz Image: APWPT e.V. 534 MHz 592 MHz TV Transmitters (DVB-T)
Challenges • Spectrum Scarcity (PMSE operates mainly in 470-862 MHz) • Digital Dividend in Germany: PMSE lost 72 MHz of spectrum, 790-862 MHz • (Digital Dividend II: Under discussion for Public Safety Services) • More Digital TV Transmission: DVB-T and DVB-T2 in parallel • More Events, More Productions • Higher Quality in Video and Audio • Coexistence of PMSE with • Analogue / Digital TV Transmission – with ATV since 50 years • Cellular Mobil Services – since Digital Dividend, in Germany: April 2010 • Other PMSE • Other Short Range Devices – • New kinds of TV Band Devices (ECMA-392, IEEE 802.11af) ???
C-PMSE Project Data Sheet • Duration: 1.4.2011 – 31.5.2013 (26 months) • Budget: about 7.5 mil. € (about 4.5 mil. € gov. funding) • Partner: • Project Office: Robert Bosch (project lead) Sennheiser (consortium lead) • Publicly funded by German Ministry of Economics and Technology (BMWi) • Project Management Agency: German Aerospace center (DLR)
Objectivesof C-PMSE Project • R&D on the cognitive system and procedures for PMSE • Development of system components, like antennas, scan receiver, scan controller, cognitive engine, data base and so on. • Measurement- and test procedures as well as channel-, interference- and co-existing models as reference for the standardization and regulation activities • Field trial platform • Setting up a field trial platform for cognitive PMSE applications at the fair grounds of Messe Berlin • Technical and economical proof of concept of the cognitive methods for PMSE • Realizing an open and modular R&D platform for future research • Frequency regulation and standardization • Setting up a forum to discuss and prioritize necessary actions concerning cognitive PMSE on national, European and worldwide level • Active collaboration in meetings ITU, ETSI, CEPT und Bundesnetzagentur by using the project results and the preparatory work of the Special Task Force ETSI STF 386
