Earned the scolding of TV broadcasters. When deciding on the regulation with the allocation of the 700 MHz band, this Thursday, 31/10, the Anatel found a way out: approved standard, but it only comes into effect after the compliance demands of broadcasters, ie solutions to interference and channel redesign.
"The bid band can only occur to the extent that issues are resolved coexistence," said the draftsman, Rodrigo Zerbone explaining that "this resolution only come into effect as well as the Regulation on the date of publication of the notice."
As reminded Marcelo Bechara, "this auction is not just booster of wireless broadband in the fourth generation in a band that should be exploited for this. But there is another question, which is the transition of the Brazilian digital TV. And the question is how to encourage compatible with a segment also scanning service as important as the other. "
Overcome the 'diplomatic crisis' with television, the use of the 700 MHz band for mobile broadband will bring news. First, it confirms the idea of sharing the model RAN Sharing for smaller cities - with a surprise: the agency indicates that not only will allow sharing of equipment, but also the spectrum.
The rule does not define on how small are the cities that could have RAN Sharing at 700 MHz, but as already indicated the counselor Jarbas Valente, the idea is that the locations of up to 30 thousand inhabitants that possibility is feasible, even with a single carrier administering the 40 +40 MHz
Otherwise, in the larger cities than the cut line - yet to be clearly defined in the same announcement, the cap was fixed at 10 to 10 MHz carriers - which in practice means that there are conditions of each of the four major telcos take your loaf mobile spectrum.
Another novelty is that although the preferred setting for systems FDD, TDD systems may be allowed, provided of course that such solutions do not cause harmful interference. FDD and TDD duplexing and forms are generally associated to fixed and mobile solutions, respectively.
It was also guaranteed in the regulation a slice of the 700 MHz band for security activities - Police and Armed Forces. This share will be at least 5 +5 MHz, although foreseen the possibility of the edict to bring a loaf bigger than that.
Finally, it is expressly mentioned in the regulation that the telecom operators should "bear the costs of redistribution and the solutions to the problems of harmful interference in radio systems."

700 MHz: Brazilian government now speaks at auction in June 2014
Even the close of the first half of 2014, the Communications Minister Paulo Bernardo, expects to make the concession auction frequency of 700 megahertz (MHz). "We're talking in April. However can always have a delay because of public consultation, "the minister said on Monday, 30/09, during an event at the Federation of Industries of the State of Rio de Janeiro (Firjan).
Bernardo admitted that the government intends to bring forward the goals of broadband 3G and 4G. "Our idea is in [the announcement of] 700 Mhz auction, put over a number of goals, including the anticipation of 3G." This should occur within interior municipalities that do not have this service. In addition, the ministry wants to take to connect all cities with fiber optic lines. The goal of universal Internet 3G is 2017. "But we can anticipate one year, a year and a half," said Minister of Communications. For 4G, the target remains 2019. Nessa, said that "we will not change."
The frequency 700 MHz is being handcrafted with more care because today it is used by television industry high penetration and political strength, present in 97% of households, the minister said. "Again, the focus will be facing the deployment of infrastructure." With the requirement of early 3G, the service will be conducted throughout Brazil in 2014 or 2015. Calculations by the minister, about 1500 cities do not have fiber optic network and 200, located in the middle of the Amazon rainforest and other hard to reach places, the service should not ever get. Must be covered by satellite.

Police in Sao Paulo charges the Anatel for LTE network in 700 MHz band
With a pilot LTE network in 700 MHz band, in progress for a year and two months, led by Alcatel-Lucent, with the participation of players such as IBM and Microsoft, and manufacturer of mining MXT, which is a supplier of 12 000 tablets used in cars, the Military Police of São Paulo argues that investment in the private network at 700 MHz is not a fight 'policy'. It is a matter of cost / benefit.
"LTE at 700MHz out up to six times cheaper than at 2.5 GHz In addition, I will share my infrastructure for voice services," writes Colonel Alfredo Deak, responsible for the technology of the Military Police of São Paulo. In this Thursday, 26/01, Military Police and Alcatel-Lucent presented the results of the pilot conducted in the metropolitan region of Sao Paulo.
The test authorized by Anatel, involves three base stations LTE, 4G mobile phone, used to transmit data in real time and seen as crucial for applications, including the monitoring of day-to-day, through cameras surveillance.
Quality of service: The differential LTE
"LTE allowed us to give intelligence to the police. The information has to be passed in real time and without human presence," adds Colonel Alfredo Deak. Still according to him, testing the connection speed has reached 60 Mbps LTE and the institution has not yet found a product in the telecom service offerings: Guaranteed quality of service.
"In the 3G you can not have this transmission in real time, with the quality we need and how quickly we want. In LTE, a private network, we can even prioritize our demand. The public network LTE when it comes, will be a contingency. Police is not only the Police to integrate health, surveillance, "Deak holds.
To show the importance of using technology to the military police, Deak posted the numbers: 100 000 are police officers, 17,000 vehicles (12,000 tablets with them already installed), 23 helicopters, two ships and 600 barges. The numbers 190 and 193 meet 180 000 calls per day, coming out of the 645 municipalities in the state covered by the corporation.
In the pilot project, the investment was around U.S. $ 2 million. The cost of a commercial service is budgeted at 700 MHz, about $ 100 million in the metropolitan region of Sao Paulo. "I do not want to enter the political fray of the band 700 MHz I see the practical side of public safety," insisted Colonel Deak. "Doing our private network that will reduce the range by up to six times the cost, if the band were to be used 2.5 Ghz. And we all know that money that we use is public," he added.
"Besides, we also want to raise our voice service. Today we have 60 and VHF channels available.'s Very little to our day-to-day. Today, in 1000 police officers, only 60 can speak. We need to talk to the radio the cop who is out of the car. we are moving to UHF, which will allow us to get to 360 channels. And we can, yes, use the existing infrastructure to put the RBS of LTE, "insists Colonel AM of St. Paul.
Officially, the Military Police of Sao Paulo asked the Anatel to release a range of 10 MHz + 10 MHz to make your private network LTE. Other MPs, among them the Federal District and the Army itself, has also requested the use of the band, but so far, the agency has not stood up because it works in the release of the 2.5 GHz band The digital dividend in the 700 MHz band is complex because it involves a dispute between broadcasters and telcos.
"We really want a decision by the Anatel later this year. We are ready to make a commercial network. The pilot has proven consistent. The technology does what is asked of her. But no spectrum is not possible," said Deak. Responsible for technology, Alcatel-Lucent argues that the pilot conducted at 700 MHz at 2.5 GHz is feasible, but assumes that there are indeed a matter of cost to be placed.
"2.5 GHz requires much more equipment. In the United States, the projects were for the public safety 700 MHz band by cost," says the president of Alcatel-Lucent, Ionian Foigel. The pilot of the Military Police of São Paulo is the first in the area of public safety, using LTE in Latin America. According Foigel within Alcatel, he is among the five made by the manufacturer in the world.
