Access to Spectrum
Radio spectrum is a finite natural resource which is in short
supply. This leads to the need for spectrum to be re-farmed and
shared to allow the introduction of new services and technologies.
Access to suitable spectrum can be determined at an international,
European or national level depending on the markets, services and
technology involved.
Operator Support
In such an environment, it is vital that potential network
operators have a thorough understanding of the characteristics of
the radio spectrum they intend to use. Awareness of any national,
regional or global regulatory constraints on the use of the spectrum
is also essential. Aegis has played an active role in regulatory
fora such as the International Telecommunications Union (ITU) and
the Conference of European Post and Telecommunications
Administrations (CEPT) for over a decade. Our professional staff
combine in-depth knowledge of radio theory and practice with
hands-on operational and regulatory experience. By working in
partnership with our clients we can ensure they gain the maximum
commercial benefit from their radio spectrum investment.
Regulator Support
We play a significant role in supporting national and regional
regulators in their efforts to promote competition and introduce new
services and technology. Our work for the UK Radiocommunications
Agency, for example, has addressed such issues as sharing between
satellite and terrestrial services, co-existence between multiple
broadband wireless access technologies and the implications of
operating licensed and licence-exempt services in the same frequency
band. In all of these areas, our emphasis is on achieving the
maximum utilisation efficiency from the available radio spectrum.
Our expertise in this area, gained in one of the most competitive
telecommunication environments in the world, makes us the ideal
partner for regulators and administrations seeking to develop their
own domestic markets.
