2. Spectrum and Society/Economy
Many sectors rely on access
to spectrum
Some applications
The activity of many companies depends on
access to spectrum

3. Agence nationale des fréquences (ANFR)
Status : public agency, created in 1997. ANFR is under the responsibility of
the Electronic Communications Ministry.
Board : 18 members. All the ministries using radiofrequencies are
represented
Organization : 310 employees; 5 directions
Missions : defined by the Law (French Post and Electronic Communications
Code). The ANFR ensures:

5. 4G deployment
ANFR publishes, on a monthly basis, the number
of 2G/3G/4G sites that have been authorized and
the number of sites declared in service.
AUTORIZED 4G SITES

7. Lamy’s Report
The report submitted to the European Commission by Mr. Pascal Lamy
draws a roadmap for the UHF band, the future of television and mobile
networks:
Rejection of
every project of
primary
assignment to
mobile services
in the
470-694 MHz
band
Transfer of the
694-790 MHz
band to the
mobile
broadband
(2 years
tolerance)
Assessment of
the UHF
spectrum use
2015 2020 2025 2030
Then, regulatory stability for broadcasting services in the 470-694 MHz band
7

8. DTT WBB
Deadline in
2020 or 2022
for MS to reallocate for
WBB
RSPG public consultation
Remaining available for DTT
in the foreseeable future (2030)
Flexibility for MS to use it for WBB downlink
8
Cross border coordination to be completed by 2017.

9. 9
700 MHz band in France
Statement by the French President of the Republic on
Thursday, October 2nd, 2014 (CSA Conference):
Attribution of frequencies in
the 700 MHz band by ARCEP
in 2015
Imperative timeframe
Then, resource
guaranteed for audiovisual
services

10. Agenda
• 4G deployment
• Future of the UHF band
• Public safety networks evolution
• Dynamic spectrum sharing
• Connected objects and 5G

11. Public safety networks evolution
Today: essentially voice and low-speed data, especially in the 400 MHz band.
New uses (video) :
bandwidth requirements
Economic players emphasize a need
of spectrum in the bands below 1 GHz
These evolutions rely on access to radiofrequencies
Identify appropriate
quantities of dedicated
frequencies
Promote the access to
harmonized frequencies
with a sufficient number
of States

Main issues
& stakeholders

12. Agenda
• 4G deployment
• Future of the UHF band
• Public safety networks evolution
• Dynamic spectrum sharing
• Connected objects and 5G
12

13. Dynamic Spectrum Sharing
13
The release of new frequency
bands seems more and more
complicated and expensive
The growth of spectrum needs
requires the use of new spectrum
management methods.
European works on sharing are progressing
France is leader in the subject
Unlicensed sharing in the ISM bands
(800 MHz) and 5 GHz Wi-Fi.
Licensed sharing: LSA (Licensed Shared
Access)

14. Agenda
• 4G deployment
• Future of the UHF band
• Public safety networks evolution
• Dynamic spectrum sharing
• Connected objects and 5G
