EC062 - ETNO Expert Contribution in response to the Consultation to develop an RSPG Opinion on World Radiocommunication Conference 2007
ETNO is pleased to provide its early views on agenda items and strategies for the next World Radiocommunication Conference in 2007. Positions expressed at this early stage of the WRC-07 preparation are subject to further refinement. From the network operators’ point of view, the WRC-07 agenda items related to spectrum for the Mobile Service, i.e. UMTS/IMT-2000 and systems beyond, are the crucial ones.
ETNO is pleased to provide its early views on agenda items and strategies for the next World Radiocommunication Conference in 2007.

From the network operators’ point of view, the WRC-07 agenda items related to spectrum for the Mobile Service, i.e. UMTS/IMT-2000 and systems beyond, are the crucial ones.
In addition other agenda items, e.g. related to the Fixed Service, are also relevant for ETNO members. For the benefit of citizens and economies of scale, the provision of sufficient harmonised spectrum for innovative radio services and adequate protection of existing radio applications should be the general objective. An open and transparent preparation process as established in CEPT with industry participation at all levels is considered as the best way to achieve results for the benefit of all parties concerned.
