Bose’s Achievements
• 1895 demonstration of 60 GHzcommunications: 2 years before Marconi
• Semi conducting crystals and PN junctions• MM wave components and assemblies• Predicted existence of EM radiation from
the sun and atmospheric absorption
Modern Times• 1950s : Bell Labs demonstrated long haul
communications using buried circular mmwaveguide in advance of fiber optics
• 1960s : MM wave radio astronomydeveloped high performance componentsand assemblies
• 1970s : Military radar, radiometer,munitions, and communications programsenhanced the industrial base
Cont..• 1980s: U.S. Government MMIC Phase I
and II developed commercial industrialbase for MM wave I.C.s
• 1990s: Broad emergence of governmentand commercial applications andprograms– Auto radar at 77 GHz– Sat Comm at 20, 30, 44, & 60 GHz– Commercial products from 18 to 77 GHz
MM Wave systems 18-580 GHz
• Weather satellites: 18-400 GHz• Radio astronomy: SWAS 550-580 GHz• Imaging radar and radiometers: 94 GHz• Level sensors and industrial sensors: 18-
94 GHz• Plasma reactor probes: 94 GHz• Surveillance, Intelligence, and ESM: 18….
Technology and Performance
• MM wave propagation is well understoodand proven
• Rain data is well quantified worldwide• Long term propagation studies have
validated the models• There are very few surprises and the
theory is very conservative

Regulatory Environment
Outline
• US Spectrum Management Basics• RF Safety Issues• 30 GHz Band• 55-80 GHz Band• 90 GHz Band (W Band)• Conclusions
US Spectrum ManagementBasics
• National Telecommunications andInformation Administration (NTIA)controls all use by Federal Government
• FCC controls all use by private usersand local government
• State Department has key role in ITUissues
US Spectrum ManagementBasics
• US national spectrum allocation table iscreated and managed jointly by FCCand NTIA
US Spectrum ManagementBasics
• In order to a band to be available fornormal use, both allocations and FCCservice rules are needed
• All new and modified rules need publiccomment - all comments are addressedin decision
• FCC presently has service rules as highas 77 GHz
mmW RF Safety Issues
• At mmW frequencies RF is generallyabsorbed at skin
• Eye damage is dominant concern• FCC limit
– Adopted in consultation with 4 other health-related agencies
– For 1.5-100 GHz: 1 mW/cm2 averagedover 30 minutes
55-80 GHz Band
• UK first suggested unlicensed use of 60GHz area in 1989 noting effects of O2
absorption• EC selected 76-77 GHz for automobile
radars around same time• FCC adopted unlicensed 59-64 GHz
and 76-77 GHz rules in 1995
55-80 GHz Band
• In December 2000 overall bandplanrevised slightly
• Unlicensed area now 57-64 GHz– All uses permitted except radar– First commercial product approved

•• 92-95 GHz92-95 GHz – FCC Exploration,championed by Dr. Michael Marcus (OET)since mid-2000–OET forum July 14, 2000, first explored
possible commercial uses for the 92-95 GHzband (follow-up at International MicrowaveSymposium last May)
–Government co-primary in band, currentlyused widely for military radar andcommunications
–Possibility of commercial spectrum auctions isconcern for NTIA

MMW Bands Ideally Suited to High Bandwidth,Fixed Point-to-Point Communications
• Spectrum above 70 GHz uncluttered withexisting services; modern needs can beaddressed without concessions to historicalconstraints
• 71-76 GHz band alone contains morebandwidth than combined bandwidth of allMMDS, LMDS, and DEMS bands–Sufficient to accommodate Gigabit Ethernet
(1.25 Gbps) and OC-48 (2.49 Gbps) full-duplexdata transmission with simple modulationschemes

case of free-space laser communication in“pencil beams” at 350 THz), motivation forband regulation disappears

• Based upon Existing Rules for Fixed Point-to-Point Microwave Services Listed underCFR Section 47, Part 101; Adding 71-76 and 81-86 GHz Bands with:
•• Authorized Bandwidth - Part 101.109(c)Authorized Bandwidth - Part 101.109(c) – Max bandwidth: 5,000 MHz, each band
•• Transmitter Power, Part 101.113(a)Transmitter Power, Part 101.113(a) – Maximum EIRP: +55 dBW– Commensurate with other band limits above 19.7 GHz
•• Antenna Gain/Antenna Gain/BeamwidthBeamwidth, Part 101.115(c), Part 101.115(c) – Min. Gain: 50 dBi, Max. HPBW: 0.6°– Gain 12 dB higher than other bands above 19.7 GHz– Enables spatial-parceling paradigm– Precise proposal limits await consensus of WCA Above-60 GHz Committee
• Modulation Spectral Efficiency - Part 101.141Modulation Spectral Efficiency - Part 101.141 – No limits– Commensurate with other bands above 19.7 GHz

Proposed Coordination/Licensing Procedure forFixed P2P Use of 71.0-76.0 GHz and 81.0-86.0
GHz
• Based upon existing coordination andlicensing procedures for point-to-pointmicrowave services listed under FCCPart 101
•• Frequency/Path Coordination,Frequency/Path Coordination, throughthird-party entity, required prior to FCCapplication, provides temporaryinterference protection
•• FCC application and point-to-pointFCC application and point-to-point
Standards
Frequency Coordination
• MUST harmonize international allocations• MUST harmonize international standards• MUST harmonize service rules
Standards
• Organizations to date– IEEE 802…..– WCAI above 40 GHz working group
• Doug Lockie and Wayne Pleasant Co-Chairs– 10-12 company participants
– ETSI• Bran• TM
High Altitude View
• Bandwidth must be allocated in large chunkswithout detailed channel assignments– Low order modulation– Saturated operation to achieve power– Minimal data formatting and FEC– Phase noise and stability issues
• Interface standards should be “radio friendly”– No DC/low frequency signaling– Near constant bit rate– PTP protocols
• 1, 10, 40, 100 Gigabit Ethernet will rule• Sonet SDH and PDH will continue to need
support for legacy applications• Fiber optical interfaces and compatibility
will be necessary• Transparency to existing and proposed
protocols• Fixed wireless backhaul may require
unique and dedicated data formats
And Finally…..
• Suggest starting a study group to look atthe issues
• Be prepared for rapid frequency expansionabove 100 GHz
• Fiber optical , laser, and MM wavetechnology is converging, finally.
