  • D/U ratios, which are the basis for traditional FCC interference rules, are mathematically determined for each service by considering factors representing the required quality of service, the specific type of modulation and demodulation employed, the emission bandwidth, and anticipated propagation path variables (e.g., fading). However, these necessary factors are not specified in a flexible use service. See 47 C.F.R. § 22.907. Service may be provided without harmful interference in intersystem border areas if licensees, each with detailed knowledge of the particular service and technology that they have decided to use, coordinate their spectrum usage near the border areas, especially where technologies and services differ.

  • EB-03-MD-013 ORDER Adopted: September 13, 2004 Released: September 14, 2004 By the Chief, Market Disputes Resolution Division, Enforcement Bureau: On August 13, 2003, Northwest Missouri Cellular Limited Partnership (``NWMC'') filed with this Commission a formal complaint against Cingular Wireless, LLC d/b/a Cingular Wireless (``Cingular'') pursuant to section 208 of the Communications Act of 1934, as amended (the ``Act''), and sections 22.907, 22.911, and 22.351 of the Commission's rules. The complaint alleges, among other things, that Cingular violated the Commission's rules by deploying Global Systems for Mobile Communications (``GSM'') without properly coordinating its channel assignments and by extending its coverage into NWMC's protected Cellular Geographic Service Area (``CGSA'') without NWMC's consent. By agreement of the parties, the complaint was held in abeyance

Moreover, the 1997 pleading appears to assume that an AirCell airborne mobile unit could affect all three faces at a given cell site simultaneously, which we consider very unlikely because of geometrical considerations.

  • for at least some portion of the sunset, again making it highly unlikely that there would be any incentive to deploy an alternative analog technology. With respect to CenturyTel's concern, we note that the channelization plan in the rule was not established for the purpose of ``protecting frequencies'' and does not serve that function today. In fact, different rules, sections 22.907 and 22.917, limit emissions and require cellular licensees to coordinate channel use with adjacent systems in order to maximize efficient utilization of the cellular spectrum. Finally, we note that the AMPS channelization plan is the current industry standard for AMPS and will presumably continue to provide guidance to licensees through the sunset of the analog requirement. Accordingly, we adopt our

  • the PCS field strength limit rules, we also propose to allow Cellular licensees to negotiate contractual agreements specifying field strength limits different from the limit established by rule. Even with full compliance with the proposed field strength limit, licensees operating in proximity to each other will still need to coordinate channel usage in order to avoid mutually destructive interference. Section 22.907 of our rules requires that interference problems (and any possible problems with traffic capture) in the Cellular Service be avoided by coordination between or among licensees, e.g., through channel choice, sectors, codes, site locations, antenna patterns, and azimuths. Section 22.907 is technology-neutral and has been successful thus far in preventing an excessive quantity of interference complaints from Cellular licensees. Therefore,
