§ 101.1421 Coordination of adjacent area MVDDS stations.
(a) MVDDS licensees in the 12.2-12.7 GHz band are required to develop
sharing and protection agreements based on the design and architecture of
their systems, in order to ensure that no harmful interference occurs
between adjacent geographical area licensees. MVDDS licensees shall:
(1) Engineer systems to be reasonably compatible with adjacent and
co-channel operations in the adjacent areas on all its frequencies; and
(2) Cooperate fully and in good faith to resolve interference and
transmission problems that are present on adjacent and co-channel operations
in adjacent areas.
(b) Harmful interference to public safety stations, co-channel MVDDS
stations operating in adjacent geographic areas, and stations operating on
adjacent channels to MVDDS stations is prohibited. In areas where the DMAs
are in close proximity, careful consideration should be given to power
requirements and to the location, height, and radiation pattern of the
transmitting and receiving antennas. Licensees are expected to cooperate
fully in attempting to resolve problems of potential interference before
bringing the matter to the attention of the Commission.
(c) Licensees shall coordinate their facilities whenever the facilities have
optical line-of-sight into other licensees' areas or are within the same
geographic area. Licensees are encouraged to develop operational agreements
with relevant licensees in the adjacent geographic areas. Incumbent public
safety POFS licensee(s) shall retain exclusive rights to its channel(s)
within the relevant geographical areas and must be protected in accordance
with the procedures in § 101.103. A list of public safety incumbents is
attached as Appendix I to the Memorandum Opinion and Order and Second Report
and Order, Docket 98-206, released May 23, 2002. Please check with the
Commission for any updates to that list.
