  8. DigitalDividendSpectrum • After WRC-07, CEPT has confirmed that the band 790-862 MHz was sub-band. • digital dividend frequency spectrum must be used effective and productive through its social and economic benefits. • 790-862 MHz part of UHF band are allocated to mobile services in our National Frequency Plan for future needs taking into account results of ITU World Radiocommunications Conferences. • However, whole UHF band (470-862 MHz) is being intensively used by analogue television broadcasting systems in Turkey currently. • the implementation schedule explained by RTUK, the simulcast period, during which both analogue and digital broadcasting are transmitted simultaneously, is between 2013 and 2015. The goal is widening the terrestrial digital television broadcasting throughout the country giving priority to big cities as soon as possible. And, date for analog switch-off has been planned as June 2015 at the latest.

  9. SharingCriteria in DD Spectrum • The assessment of results of WRC-12 about sharing criteria between the mobile service and other services in the band 790-862 MHz and ensuring the adequate protection of services in the adjacent bands (below 790 MHz and above 862 MHz). • 2012 AnualWorking Plan: • For required activities in order to consider and take appropriate action with respect to the above matters, a study containing proposals will be made. • Determining of proposals on necessary action to be taken for frequency assignments or frequency allotments to the television broadcasting stations appearing for Turkey in the GE06 Digital Television Plan in the 790-862 MHz part of the frequency band 470-862 MHZ.
