Notes related to the Responsible Groups
1

Based on past experiences on the studies on this frequency band and the complexity of this issue, special attention should be paid to the interaction between WP 4A and WP 5B. Therefore WP 4A needs to take into account, as received, the potential update information and characteristics on the protection and operation of the radiolocation service as duly provided by WP 5B, in order to perform the relevant sharing studies. Based on progress on the studies in WP 4A, in case of necessity, joint meeting sessions of WP 4A and WP 5B should be organised to facilitate the collaboration between the WPs on the issue relative to the protection of the radiolocation service.​

2

Studies should be carried out in close collaboration between the indicated WPs (i.e. WP 5C, WP 4A, WP 4C and WP 5A​).

3

WP 4C will carry out the studies on possible allocations to the MSS in the frequency bands between 694/698 MHz and 2.7 GHz provided by input contributions, including those from WP 5D based on the IMT frequency arrangements contained in the most recent version of Recommendation ITU-R M.1036.
WP 4C, in close collaboration with WP 5D, will conduct studies referred to in the resolves to invite the ITU Radiocommunication Sector to complete in time for the 2027 world radiocommunication conference 2.
WP 4C will carry out the studies requested in the further resolves 1 and 2. WP 5D is expected to provide studies which include regulatory considerations on the protection of terrestrial component of IMT.
WP 4C should take the lead in developing the draft CPM text by including the WP 5D’s results on the regulatory considerations on the protection of terrestrial component of IMT. To facilitate the work, the Chairs of both WPs should coordinate the schedule of WPs meetings, as appropriate, and provide a note to both WPs in this regard.

Note: the draft CPM text prepared by WP 7C and WP 7D will be provided by WP 7C.
