Utilities: Electric, Gas and Water

SG Spectrum Allocation Should..

• Assure long-term ‘priority’ or ‘preferential’ access forutilities– Interference protection

– Flexible geographic boundaries

– 10 to 20+ year time-frame

• Sufficient capacity for short & long-term requirements– 15 MHz supports three 5 MHz channels

• Basis: SGIP/NIST PAP-2 work & OpenSG Network TF

– Some provision for additional spectrum• Longer-term role of video surveillance ????

• Frequency band(s) that supports economical deployment– Range, penetration losses, equipment availability, etc.

• May be more than 1 band (network of networks)

27

WiGRID Spectrum Alternatives

• Unlicensed (ISM bands), public networks– Can and will play a role

– But not suitable for total end-to-end SGnetwork

• Public Safety Bands (700 MHz & 4900MHz)

• 1800 MHz (30 MHz allocated in Canada)

• TV ‘White Space’ (UHF)

• 3550-3650 MHz plus 3650-3700 MHz
