6 Defence Procurement Government policy states: The public sector should collect, maintain and provide detailed spectrum related data so that others may have access on a shared basis Industry has a huge part to play Promoting the development of systems that are frequency agile Consider spectrum efficiencies as a key driver Consider Information restrictions such as ITAR from the USA when supplying equipment. The Defence industry should make every effort to broker agreements so that the Data can be released to relevant parties in the UK so that clearance can be agreed. Provide all the spectrum related data to the DT in a timely manor in accordance with the CADMID cycle so that it can be utilised by the JSA Initial Gate Main Gate

15 The military already share lots of itary and Civil Private spectrum! And we re quite good at it Satellite Earth Stations and Over two thirds of military spectrum in Europe is already shared and in some countries over 90% is shared EDA Sharing and Pooling Study itary Personal Role and Wifi and Wifi

16 itary Perspective: Exclusive Use versus Sharing Exclusive Use Sharing Does the military have to stop using the spectrum? Will costs be incurred in order to remove military systems from the spectrum? Will there be an impact on military operations? Will the military be able to use the spectrum in the future? YES Most likely YES Most likely YES Most likely NO NO NO Most likely NO Most likely YES

17 MOD Exclusivity Spectrum sharing approaches Total MOD use Dynamic Spectrum Access Unshared MOD Spectrum Full Customer Licences Controlled Commons - TVWS Fully released Unmanaged Commons - NINP MOD Controllability Instant switching on/off by MOD

18 Opportunities Potential for MOD to use sharing to meet its own needs Encourage technology innovation Produce an exemplar approach that could be used more widely (within MOD and across government) Innovative Sharing Benefits Reduced AIP Meet CMU target Retains protected spectrum use Improve spectrum efficiency Risks Inadequate Defence capability protection Sharing may not be cost effective Regulatory approval Danger of losing control of spectrum Spectrum not commercially attractive Challenges Need to hide sensitive location information Adequate data quality for effective sharing Mature sharing technology Maintain CJIIM interoperability Effective remediation Determine extent of licensing

19 Spectrum Planning Vision MOD will understand its near, medium and long term Spectrum requirements in order to allow informed SDS procurement, Spectrum management, policy and research decisions based on accurate and trusted information. Driver for improvements: Increasing Spectrum requirements within MOD Release and/or Sharing of MOD managed Spectrum Increased Global harmonisation Improved Interoperability

20 Strategic Spectrum Planning Inputs and Outputs Technology trends Current Spectrum use Existing and Future Defence Spectrum requirements International regulations and constraints Strategic Spectrum Planning Interoperability Informed Guidance & Decision Making Future Equipment procurement National release and sharing
