3. China mm-Wave Standard
July 2010
China mm-Wave Standard
In Oct. 2006, Chinese Authority (SRRC) released 59-64GHz spectrum band.
In 2009, CESI invited CWPAN to develop the national mm-Wave standard.
The bandwidth (5GHz) corresponds to two bands with 2.16GHz bandwidth according to the band plan adopted in IEEE ad.
North America 56 57 58 59 60 61 62 63 64 65 66

4. Current Status of China mm-Wave Standard
July 2010
Current Status of China mm-Wave Standard
Issues of “Gigabit Wireless Network in mm-Wave bands” in China
Exporting Issues: Test equipment in the range of 60GHz (above 50GHz) to be exported to China is under pending
It implies that products compliant to IEEE ad may not be manufactured or sold on China market
Frequency Band Issues: It is being under consideration in China WPAN mm-Wave project group to use the mm-Wave band from 42GHz to 50GHz as well
Discussion with Chinese Authority (SRRC) is ongoing
Performance Issues: Product compliant to IEEE ad may not be able to support enough number of networks simultaneously (less than 3 networks) in China Market
Discussion with SRRC to request further opening spectrum from 56GHz to 58GHz or 64GHz to 66GHz may be needed
