On 15 November 2022, Japan MIC began a consultation that asked public opinion for its positions on WRC-23.
Agenda item 1.2 on 6425-7025 MHz:
Based on the results of the ITU-R commonality/compatibility study, Japan supports a method that allows for the identification of IMTs in the 6425-7025 MHz band in Region 1 provided that the following conditions are met:
(a)
the protection of existing primary operations is ensured,
(b)
no additional restrictions are imposed,
(c)
the IMT can be operated within a realistic range, with a view to enjoying the benefits of economies of scale.
Agenda item 1.2 on 7025-7125 MHz:
Based on the results of the ITU-R study on common use and compatibility, Japan believes that it is necessary to set appropriate conditions in each country. Japan will support global expansion of terrestrial IMTs, provided that
(a) protection of existing primary operations is ensured,
(b)
no additional restrictions are imposed,
(c)
IMTs are operational to the extent practicable.
Agenda item 10 on WRC-27:
Japan comments that it is appropriate to: Provisional agenda item 2.1:"Study on additional frequency allocation in the radiolocation service primary service in the 231.5-275 GHz band for millimeter and sub-millimeter wave imaging systems, and identification of new frequencies in the radiolocation service in the 275-700 GHz band".
For details, please refer to
