3. Future of Connected Cars and Satellite Technology
Europe will quickly adopt connected car solutions. It is estimated the share of connected cars to non-connected cars will grow from 13% in 2014 to 95% in (source BI Intelligence)
Satellites will play an important role in the connectivity and autonomy of intelligent cars and Intelsat is closely involved in initiatives to ensure that developments of intelligent vehicles can offer the best solution.
This presentation is offered to SE40 to provide background information and the outcomes of FM44 and WGFM meetings where it was agreed that an ECC Decision should be prepared on the harmonised use, free circulation and exemption from individual licensing of Vehicle-Mounted Earth Stations operating with GSO systems in the fixed satellite service (FSS) allocations GHz (space-to-Earth) and GHz (Earth-to- space).

5. Redefinition of Vehicle Mounted Satellite Antenna

6. Rationale for Introducing a Regulatory Framework for VMES
The connected cars sector is one of the high priority policy areas in Europe on two accounts:
Road Safety; major reduction of serious road accidents
Sustainability; reduction in carbon emissions and increased transport efficiency
Satellites have international footprint and offer the opportunity to serve vast regions without the need for roaming agreements.
Important up front investment decisions in satellite infrastructure which benefit from:
A single market created over the satellite coverage zone;
Early predictability of fees, technical operating conditions, and licensing conditions.

9. European Initiatives and Regulatory Frameworks
The EU has issued the intelligent transport Action Plan.
These documents call for European-wide deployment before 2017, and national implementation preparations have started.
Satellite services is included as an access technology component.
CEPT license exemption and free circulation regulations
Well established for maritime and aeronautical services and has been applied to land mobile terminals.
License Exemption. Many ERC Decisions on satellite terminals provide for license exemption
Free circulation. Many ERC Decisions allow for free circulation based on harmonised conditions for authorisation
CEPT/ ETSI
There are regulatory elements that contribute to satellite framework for Vehicle-Mounted Earth Station (VMES) ETS  / VSAT - ECC/DEC(05)01, (05)08, (06)02/ LEST, (06)03/ HEST.
ETSI has already developed and adopted standards for vehicle mounted earth stations and earth stations on trains (EN and EN ). But there is no ECC Decision.

10. Current Progress
A Work Item was agreed during the last WGFM to carry out technical studies to support the development of an ECC Decision on land based in-motion earth stations (e.g. VMES), operating with GSO FSS systems in the GHz (space to Earth) and GHz (Earth to space).
We would be pleased if SE40 could support the work of FM44 by carrying out such necessary technical compatibility studies in order to achieve harmonise use of spectrum, free circulation and exemption from individual licensing for VMES services.
Studies will be carried out to develop a methodology for the protection to the FS and other services (i.e. RSA) from VMES earth stations in the band GHz.
It is proposed to work together with SE19 in order to get their comments, in particular with regard to the characteristics and protection criteria for fixed service
