- facilities. With regard to SBE's assertion that adequate time must be provided for interference standards to be developed, we note that five months have already passed since the release of the Report and Order on November 13, 2002. Moreover, as we pointed out in the Report and Order, the existing baseline interference criteria for 13 GHz BAS in current Section 74.638 are identical to those for FS in Section 101.105. Also, the FS criteria in Section 101.105(c) already provide the flexibility to follow generally acceptable good engineering practices, such as the existing interference criteria already in use by broadcasters and cited by SBE, and we would therefore be hesitant to further delay prior coordination for the mix of signals needed to

- frequencies. Specifically, GUSA states that the proposed gateway is located more than 30 miles from the Anchorage metropolitan area and clear of any fixed use in the 6875-7055 MHz band and only mobile BAS users in the vicinity of Wasilla, Alaska would require coordination with GUSA. GUSA further indicates that it would attempt a local coordination as allowed by Section 74.638(d) of the Commission's rules and accept any BAS interference it might receive at the Alaska gateway. GUSA also argues that its operational capacity at its new feeder link earth stations would be constrained without authority to operate in the 7025-7055 MHz frequency band.

- fixed links, but argues that non-fixed links should be exempted in favor of the existing local frequency coordination process, which it contends is working well. MRC also supports the adoption, for BAS, of criteria in Section 101.105(c) and consequently TIA TSB 10-F, which provide guidelines for applying and developing interference protection criteria, because they are consistent with the existing Section 74.638 in establishing a minimum adjacent channel interference C/I ratio of 56 dB. MRC states that this ratio exceeds the ratio required by MRC's TwinStream radio. Globalstar urges the adoption of rules requiring coordination of BAS and CARS with non-geostationary satellite orbit (NGSO) MSS user uplinks allocated in the 2 GHz band and feeder downlinks proposed to be allocated under ET

- and CARS operations in the 7 GHz and 13 GHz bands to coordinate their operations under Section 101.103(d) of the Commission's rules. On the other hand, mobile BAS and CARS in the 7 GHz and 13 GHz bands were given the flexibility to use either the coordination procedures of Section 101.103(d) or informal local ad hoc coordination procedures under Sections 74.638 and 78.36 of the Commission's Rules. Significantly, the Commission's decision did not address whether these coordination procedures were adequate to address sharing between BAS/CARS and satellite operations in these bands. DISCUSSION A.

- over the Internet and allow users to send messages or exchange confidential information that can not be viewed by unauthorized parties. See generally 47 C.F.R. §101.103. While the rules in Section 101.103 apply to the fixed service, other terrestrial services have adopted this general approach either through duplication of the procedures or direct reference to that section. For BAS, Section 74.638(b) incorporates by reference the coordination procedures in Section 101.103(d). For CARS, Section 78.36 describes the same, rather than incorporate by reference, the coordination procedures in Section 101.103(d). Likewise, similar rules govern the prior coordination of satellite earth stations. See 47 C.F.R. §§ 25.203, 25.251.

WCA recognizes the efforts of Nextel to assist in the cost savings of the relocation, but still sticks to its argument that the beneficiaries, Globalstar and the AWS auction winners, should bear those costs.

The Commission also sought comment on permitting mobile BAS/CARS operators to use the ad hoc coordination procedures in Sections 74.638(d) and 78.36(d) of the Commission's Rules instead of the ``notice and response'' rules when a mobile BAS/CARS licensee initiates coordination in the 7 GHz and 13 GHz bands with GSO or NGSO FSS operations.
