  1. Spectrum Management &the Need for NextDigital DecadeFriday 23, July 2010

  2. Outline : Company Preface • Loop Mobile (India) Limited • One of the oldest Mobile Service Provider in Mumbai. • Subscriber base around 3 Million. • Loop Telecom Limited • Holding UAS License across 21 Service Areas . • Having Initial Start-up Spectrum of 4.4 MHz in 20 Service Areas (except in Delhi and 64 Districts of 12 Service Areas).

  3. “Dusk” of Digital Decade

  4. Current Scenario • Current 2G and 3G Allocations in Frequency Bands • 800 MHz Band - CDMA • 900 MHz Band – GSM • 1800 MHz Band – GSM • 2100 MHz Band – 3G CDMA800 3G 2100 GSM900 GSM1800

  5. Spectrum Management • Presently frequency is allocated as per National Frequency Allocation Plan (NFAP). • 4.4 MHz as Startup Spectrum. • Additional Spectrum allocated based on subscriber base, over and above the contracted spectrum. • Higher spectrum charge for more spectrum.

  6. Spectrum Charging Scenario • Spectrum Charges : Based on quantum of Spectrum allocated as a percentage of AGR. • Matter Subjudiced

  7. “Dawn” of Digital Decade

  8. Spectrum Management : Next Digit Decade • Wireless services will undergo a major expansion in the next decade & will provoke an increased need for radio spectrum. • Major technological changes are under way as well, which might help in improving its efficient use, but also warrant savvier management methods. • Mobile broadband is entering a golden age of development, bringing human society to a new height of ubiquity. • Dimensions of Spectrum Management: • Allocation: Service harmonization or Service Flexibility, • Technology: Standardization or Technology Flexibility

  9. Considerations for Next Digital Decade Technology and/or Services And Policy

  10. Considerations for Next Digital Decade • Technolgy/Services • Value Added Services. • Financial Services Inclusion. • E-Health. • E-Panchayat. • Digital Learning [E-Learning]

  11. Considerations for Next Digital Decade • Policy • Effective and efficient management of Spectrum. • Flexible but Stable Spectrum Allocation Policy(ies). • Need to clearly define the spectrum eligibility at the time of grant of License and not after years of allocation of spectrum • Charge for different bands of spectrum be determined differently • And the charge determined at a particular time need not be applied to spectrum allocated 8-10 years earlier. • Effective for at least 5 years..

  12. Considerations for Next Digital Decade • Policy • Regulations for effective Spectrum Sharing. • Sharing to be allowed to all operators • Artificial barrier for sharing of certain amount of spectrum not required. • Spectrum – Upon Merger and Acquisition. • Market share of the Resultant entity should be so as to encourage M&A • Similarly spectrum held by the Resultant entity should be so as to encourage M&A

  13. Hence, at the Dawn of the Digital Decadea very transparent, robust and stable Spectrum Management Policyis very eagerly awaited…!!!

  14. Thank You
