INTER-AMERICAN PROPOSAL (IAP): DRAFT INTER-AMERICAN PROPOSAL (DIAP) for which the PCC II has ended its consideration and discussion, has been supported by at least six Members States and is not opposed by more than 50% of the number of supports obtained.

5 Agenda Item 1.1: Consideration of the band 50-54 MHz to the amateur service in Region 1
Preliminary Views TBD Issue Coordinator: Flávio ARCHANGELO (B)

6 Agenda Item 1.2: ​to consider in-band power limits for earth stations operating in the mobile-satellite service, meteorological-satellite service and Earth exploration-satellite service in the frequency bands MHz and MHz, Preliminary Views TBD Issue Coordinator: James MENTZER (USA)

7 Agenda Item 1.3: Possible upgrading met satellite service (space-to-Earth) to primary status and a possible primary allocation to the EESS (space-to-Earth) in the band MHz Preliminary Views TBD Issue Coordinator: James MENTZER (USA)

8 Agenda Item 1.4: Review, and revise if necessary, the limitations mentioned in Annex 7 to Appendix 30 Preliminary Views USA With respect to Agenda Item 1.4, the United States supports the studies in accordance with Resolution 557 (WRC-15).  Based upon successful conclusion of these activities, the United States supports the review and revision, as necessary, of the limitations of Annex 7 to Appendix 30 (Rev.WRC‑12), while ensuring the protection of existing assignments in the Plan and the List and the future development of BSS service within the Plan, and existing and planned fixed-satellite service networks. Issue Coordinator: TBD

9 Agenda Item 1.5: ESIM Preliminary Views TBD
Issue Coordinator: TBD [Brazil] Agenda Item 1.5: To consider worldwide/regional harmonization of spectrum for electronic news gathering (ENG), taking into account the results of ITU-R studies, in accordance with Resolution 954 (WRC-07) Issues To review the needs of ENG systems, to decide if harmonization is possible, and in what potential bands such harmonization is appropriate. This issue may also lead to requests from administrations for consideration of additional spectrum allocations. Preliminary views CAN Canada supports ongoing efforts in the ITU-R to study this issue. USA The United States supports reviewing the requirements developed in WP 6A to determine if harmonization is feasible on a regional/global basis for ENG systems. The United States supports studies on technologies for ENG that maximize efficient and flexible use of frequencies at the national level in lieu of global/regional identification of frequency bands. If studies demonstrate that such harmonization is required and feasible, the United States supports focusing on studying the impact of identifying in the Radio Regulations harmonized spectrum for ENG systems on the existing services.

10 Agenda Item 1.6 : to consider regulatory framework for non-GSO FSS satellite systems that may operate in the frequency bands GHz (space-to-Earth), GHz (space-to-Earth), GHz (Earth-to-space) and GHz (Earth-to-space), Preliminary Views TBD Issue Coordinator: Marcella OST (CAN)

11 Agenda Item 1.7: Non-GSO satellites with short duration missions
Preliminary view Canada Subject to the outcome of the compatibility studies, Canada will consider supporting new allocations and an upgrade of the existing allocations to the space operation service within the frequency ranges ‑174 MHz and ‑420 MHz. Canada is of the view that frequency bands subject to No. 9.21 are not suitable for space operation service for satellites with small duration missions. Issue Coordinator (alternate): Roberto LAFERTTE (USA)

12 Agenda Item 1.8: GMDSS additional satellite systems
Preliminary Views  United States With respect to Agenda Item 1.8, the United States supports the activities of IMO related to the introduction of additional satellite systems into the GMDSS, as well as activities underway in the ITU-R. Based upon successful conclusion of these activities, the U.S. supports appropriate modification of the Radio Regulations to provide for introducing additional satellite systems into the GMDSS. Issue Coordinator: Donald JANSKY (USA) Agenda Item 1.8 To consider the progress of ITU-R studies concerning the technical and regulatory issues relative to the fixed service in the bands between 71 GHz and 238 GHz, taking into account Resolutions 731 and 732. Resolution 731 & 732 In a somewhat unique set of circumstances, WRC-07 did not adopt a Resolution to define this agenda item. Therefore, the definition and scope of the agenda item is unclear. Resolution 731 & 732 were developed at WRC-2000 as a repository to address FUTURE active service technology requirements, and sharing/allocation issues in bands above 71 GHz. Agenda item 1.8 limits the scope of these two resolutions to the fixed service, and to an upper frequency of 238 GHz. Issues The intent of this agenda item is to study compatibility between passive and active services and develop sharing criteria for co-primary active services in bands above 71 GHz. In particular, it is important to study the spectrum requirements for active services for which the technology will be commercially available at a future date. Based on proposals and documentation available at WRC-07, it is likely that some administrations may seek to develop sharing criteria for the radio regulations in the form of pfd limits on space service downlinks. Preliminary Points of View Agenda item 1.8 covers a large number of frequency bands; Canada is of the view that the GHz, GHz and GHz bands be studied, as the highest priority, since several administrations have already made or are in the process of making these bands available.

13 Agenda Item 1.9.1: Maritime autonomous devices
Preliminary Views TBD Issue Coordinator: TBD

14 Agenda Item 1.9.2: Satellite VDES
Preliminary Views TBD Issue Coordinator :  TBD

15 Agenda Item 1.10: GADSS Preliminary Views TBD
Issue Coordinator : Luís FERNANDO (B)

16 Agenda Item 1.11: Railway Train and Trackside
Preliminary Views Canada Canada is of the view that the agenda item 1.11 is restricted to examining spectrum for railway radiocommunication systems between train and trackside in spectrum already allocated to the mobile service; therefore, Canada is of the view that this agenda item can be satisfied through ITU-R Recommendations and Reports without the need of changes to the Radio Regulations. Issue Coordinator :David TEJEDA (MEX)

17 Agenda Item 1.12: ITS Harmonization
Preliminary Views Canada Canada is of the view that the agenda item 1.12 is restricted to studying spectrum for intelligent transport systems in spectrum already allocated to the mobile service; therefore, Canada is of the view that this agenda item can be satisfied through ITU-R Recommendations and Reports without the need of changes to the Radio Regulations. Issue Coordinator : TBD Argentina

18 Agenda Item 1. 13: IMT in the frequency range 24
Agenda Item 1.13: IMT in the frequency range GHz to 86 GHz (1 of 2) Preliminary Views Brazil Agenda Item 1.13 is key to the future development of IMT systems for the delivery of IMT-2020 services. The aim of IMT-2020 is to create a more ‘hyper connected’ society by more comprehensively, and intelligently, integrating LTE, Wi-Fi and cellular IoT technologies, together with at least one new IMT-2020 radio interface. This will allow mobile networks to dynamically allocate resources to support the varying needs of a diverse set of connections – ranging from industrial machinery in factories, to automated vehicles as well as smartphones. A central component in the evolution of all mobile technology generations has been the use of increasingly wide frequency bands to support higher speeds and larger amounts of traffic. IMT-2020 is no different, ultra-fast IMT-2020 services will require large amounts of spectrum including above 24 GHz where wide bandwidths are more readily available. Spectrum above 24 GHz is well recognized worldwide as being the key component for the data intensive IMT-2020 services. Without them, IMT-2020 won’t be able to deliver significantly faster data speeds or support projected extensive mobile traffic growth. With that in mind, we support appropriate sharing and compatibility studies under Agenda Item 1.13 in the bands GHz, GHz, GHz, GHz, GHz, GHz and GHz. Such studies should consider that the significant extra capacity of IMT-2020 systems will need to be perfectly integrated with heterogenous networks, including fibre, satellite and microwave systems, taking into account their specific benefits which are crucial to developing countries.

19 Agenda Item 1. 13: IMT in the frequency range 24
Agenda Item 1.13: IMT in the frequency range GHz to 86 GHz (Continued 2 of 2) Preliminary Views  USA Support studies under WRC-19 agenda item 1.13 and take appropriate action based on the results of these sharing and compatibility studies in accordance with Resolution 238 in the following bands: GHz, GHz, GHz, GHz, GHz, GHz, GHz and GHz, which have allocations to the mobile service on a primary basis; and GHz, GHz and GHz, which may require additional allocations to the mobile service on a primary basis. Issue Coordinator: Camilo ZAMORA (COL)

20 Agenda Item 1.14: HAPS TBD Preliminary Views
Issue Coordinator: Brian PATTEN (USA)

21 Agenda Item 1.15: to consider identification of frequency bands for use by administrations for the land-mobile and fixed services applications operating in the frequency range GHz Preliminary Views TBD Issue Coordinator: TBD

22 Agenda Item 1.16: WAS/RLANs in 5 GHz
Preliminary Views Brazil The Brazilian Administration supports the necessity for studies to consider possible additional spectrum allocation to be mobile service, including radio local area networks (WAS/RLAN), while ensuring the protection of the C band uplink and of all existing services in the candidate bands. Canada Canada is of the view that only the specific frequency bands MHz, MHz, MHz and MHz listed in the resolves and invites ITU-R of Resolution 239 (WRC-15) are to be considered and/or studied under WRC-19 agenda item 1.16 and not the entire 5 GHz frequency range ( MHz). Canada is assessing and may contribute to studies listed under invites ITU-R of Resolution 239 (WRC-15). Mexico WAS/RLANs have promoted the development of broadband access and have been deployed license-exempt, pursuant to the provisions of CITEL and ITU-R, in the frequency bands MHz, MHz, MHz, MHz, and MHz. However, it is considered that a potential additional allocation to the mobile service should be based on evidence of spectrum saturation in existing bands, growth projections, and the non-affectation/degradation of any existing services that might operate in the potential additional spectrum. Issue Coordinator: TBD MEX, COL, ARG

23 Preliminary Proposals TBD
Agenda Item 2 : ITU-R Recommendations incorporated by reference (Resolutions 27 and 28) Preliminary Proposals TBD Issue Coordinator: TBD Agenda Item 2: Revise ITU-R Recommendations incorporated by reference in the Radio Regulations. Issues Monitor the development of new and revised ITU-R Recommendations and determine whether these should be incorporated by reference in the Radio Regulations. Preliminary Views: Some administrations believe that: Resolutions 27 and 28 provide clear guidance on the principles and application for incorporating by reference ITU-R Recommendations in the Radio Regulations. Consequently, no revisions to these Resolutions are necessary at this time. WRC-07 should follow the incorporation by reference process in Resolution 27 (Rev.WRC-03) and Resolution 28 (Rev.WRC-03). Administrations should, in accordance with Resolution 28, review those revised ITU-R Recommendations listed by the Director to the CPM and communicated by the RA to the WRC to determine whether the updated version should be incorporated by reference in the R.R. in place of the previous version.

24 Agenda Item 4: Review of Resolutions and Recommendations (Resolution 95)
Preliminary Views TBD Issue Coordinator: TBD

25 Agenda Item 7: Changes in response to Resolution 86 – Satellite network regulatory procedures
Preliminary Views Canada For issues relating to Appendices 30 and 30A and any potential modifications of their associated provisions, Canada is of the view that the specifics of the Region 2 Plan for BSS and its associated feeder links should be maintained. Issue D - Canada supports extending the current Bureau identification and publication of the satellite networks or systems to be considered when effecting coordination under No. 9.7 and 9.7A to other types of coordination, namely coordination under No. 9.12, 9.12A, 9.13 or 9.21 as appropriate. Issue Coordinator: Michelle CALDEIRA (B)

26 Agenda Item 8: Deletion of country footnotes, deletion of country names from footnotes (Resolution 26) Preliminary Views TBD Issue Coordinator: TBD

27 Agenda Item 9.1: on the activities of the Radiocommunication Sector since WRC-15
Issue Terrestrial and Satellite Components of IMT in 2 GHz Preliminary Views Canada There should not be any impact from the outcome of these studies on the existing use of the frequency bands by the terrestrial component of IMT in MHz (part of the / MHz IMT frequency band) nor on flexible MS/MSS use in & MHz. Issue Coordinator: TBD El Salvador

28 Issue 9.1.2: Compatibility of IMT and broadcasting-satellite service (sound) in the frequency band MHz in Regions 1 and 3 Preliminary Views TBD Issue Coordinator: TBD

29 Issue 9.1.3: technical and operational issues and regulatory provisions for new NGSO systems in the MHz, MHz, MHz and MHz bands allocated to FSS Preliminary Views Canada: Supports the studies under Resolution 157 (WRC-15) for new non-GSO FSS satellite systems. Any modification to Article 22 for the inclusion of epfd limits for non-GSO FSS systems in the bands MHz (space-to-Earth) and MHz (Earth-to-space) to protect the geostationary FSS allotments in the Plan and the assignments in the Appendix 30B List can only be considered in conjunction with modifications to Article 5, including No to authorize use of these bands by non-GSO FSS systems. This footnote specifies that the use of the bands by the FSS shall be in accordance with Appendix 30B, which is limited to the geostationary-satellite of the fixed-satellite service. This is not the case in the bands MHz and MHz where non-GSO FSS are currently allowed without any restrictions in Article 5. Similarly, the adoption of regulatory measures to protect terrestrial services in the band MHz (space-to-Earth) can only be considered in conjunction with modifications to No Canada also notes that under the current regulatory framework, the protection of the non-GSO MSS feeder link receiving earth station from non-GSO FSS transmitting earth station in the band MHz and MHz is ensured through the application of coordination procedures under No. 9.17A (see also Table 9a in Appendix 7). An extension of these coordination procedures to the band MHz can only be achieved through modifications to No referred to above. Issue Coordinator: TBD

30 Issue 9.1.4: Stations on board sub-orbital vehicles
Preliminary Views TBD Issue Coordinator: TBD

31 Issue 9.1.5: technical and regulatory impacts of referencing Recommendations M and ITU R M in Nos F and 5.450A of the Radio Regulations Preliminary Views TBD Issue Coordinator: TBD

32 Issue 9.1.6: Wireless Power Transfer for Electric Vehicles
Preliminary Views TBD Issue Coordinator: TBD

33 Issue 9.1.7: Unauthorized operation of earth station terminals
Preliminary Views TBD Issue Coordinator: Hugo Mario TRIVIÑO (COL)

34 Issue 9.1.8:  Narrowband and broadband machine-type communication infrastructures  
Preliminary Views Brazil The Brazilian Administration has analyzed the current and future spectrum use for MTC and Internet of Things (IoT), which showed that there is no need to identify specific spectrum for those applications.  The identification of spectrum for mobile communications (voice and data), guarantees quality of service (QoS). Different aspects can be faced with the use of unlicensed spectrum for metropolitan areas. Unlicensed spectrum is better suited for small areas with some control of interference (i.e. homes, offices, etc.). The devices connected through unlicensed spectrum using technologies such as WiFi, Bluetooth, Zigbee, etc. can be connected to a metropolitan area through a HUB which aggregates the traffic and sends it via mobile networks with guaranteed QoS. IoT applications and devices can be used effectively with all the benefits of the existent mobile broadband bands and the new frequency bands being studied for IMT. This approach avoids the necessity of identifying new spectrum dedicated exclusively for IoT applications. Issue Coordinator: Sergio MARQUEZ (MEX)

35 Issue 9.1.9: Studies relating to spectrum needs and possible allocation of the frequency band GHz to the fixed-satellite service (Earth-to-space)  Preliminary Views TBD Issue Coordinator: TBD

36 Agenda Item 9.2: Difficulties and inconsistencies encountered in the application of the Radio Regulations Preliminary Views TBD Issue Coordinator: TBD

37 Agenda Item 9.3: on action in response to Resolution on action in response to Resolution 80 (Rev.WRC‑07) Preliminary Views TBD Issue Coordinator: TBD

38 Agenda Item 10: Agenda Items for Future Conferences
TBD Issue Coordinator: Ana USTATE (COL)
