RES239 – 299 – ADD RESOLUTION 239 (WRC-15) Studies concerning Wireless Access Systems including radio local area networks in the frequency bands between 5 150 MHz and 5 925 MHz The World Radiocommunication Conference (Geneva, 2015), considering a) that there has been considerable growth in the demand for Wireless Access Systems including radio local area networks (WAS/RLAN) applications with multimedia capabilities; b) that WAS/RLAN applications contribute to global economic and social development by providing a wide range of multimedia applications; c) that there is a need to continually take advantage of technological developments in order to increase the efficient use of spectrum and facilitate spectrum access; d) that as technology evolves to meet increasing performance demands and traffic on broadband WAS increases, the use of wider bandwidth channels in order to support high data rates creates a need for additional spectrum; e) that the frequency band 5 350-5 460 MHz is allocated worldwide on a primary basis to the aeronautical radionavigation service (No. 5.449); f) that the frequency band 5 460-5 470 MHz is allocated worldwide on a primary basis to the radionavigation service (No. 5.449); g) that the frequency band 5 350 to 5 470 MHz is allocated worldwide on a co-primary basis to the Earth exploration-satellite service (active) (No. 5.448B), the space research service (active) (No. 5.448C) and the radiolocation service (No. 5.448D); h) that the frequency bands between 5 725 and 5 850 MHz are allocated worldwide on a primary basis to the radiolocation service and, in Region 1, to the fixed-satellite service; i) that the frequency band 5 850-5 925 MHz is allocated worldwide on a primary basis to the mobile service, the fixed service and the fixed-satellite service; j) that there is a need to protect the incumbent primary services including their current and planned use; k) that there may be a need to specify potential technical and operational restrictions for WAS/RLAN operating in the mobile service within the 5 GHz frequency range to facilitate sharing with systems of incumbent services,
