Mobile/wireless Broadband Spectrum Refarming/liberalization www.gncc.ge Georgian National Communications Commission
EU trends - to cope with increased mobile data traffic Main Trends Allocate additional (800MHz, 2.5-2.7, 3.4-3.8 GHz) spectrum bands for mobile/wireless broadband Liberalize 900/1800/2100 MHz spectrum bands – make licenses technology and service neutral www.gncc.ge Find and harmonize additional spectrum to cope with future demand Candidate bands: 700MHz , 1.5, 2, 2.3-2.4, 3.8-4.2GHz Georgian National Communications Commission

SPECTRUM RE-FARMING/ Main Trends • Harmonize800/900 MHz spectrum allocations with EU norms • Liberalize900/1800/2100 MHz spectrum bands • Make technolofy neutral and modify the duration of existing GSM/UMTS licensees (15 years starting from modification date) • Ensure access of license holders on continues spectrum blocks in 900/1800 MHz bands (without guardbands) www.gncc.ge • Wait for market development and than allocate 3.6-3.8 GHz band for mobile/wireless services • Find ways to make 2.6 GHz spectrum available for mobile/wireless broadband • Not to take into consideration unpaired 2.1 GHz, 3.4-3.6 GHz, 850 and450 MHz spectrum holdings when assessing competitiveness of Mobile market players Georgian National Communications Commission
