Introduction

IMT-2000 is an advanced mobile communication application concept intended to provide telecommunication services on a worldwide scale regardless of location, network or terminal used. At WARC-92, spectrum was identified for IMT-2000 in the bands 1 885-2 025 MHz and 2 110-2 200 MHz, including the bands 1 980-2 010 MHz and 2 170-2 200 MHz for the satellite component of IMT-2000. At WRC-2000, additional spectrum was identified for IMT-2000 in the bands 806-960 MHz, 1 710-1 885 MHz and 2 500-2 690 MHz.

Frequency sharing studies and interference analyses involving IMT-2000 systems and other systems and services operating in bands identified for IMT-2000 may need to be undertaken within ITU-R. To perform the necessary sharing studies between IMT-2000 systems and systems in other services, characteristics of the terrestrial component of IMT-2000 systems are needed.

This Report provides the baseline characteristics of terrestrial IMT-2000 systems for use in frequency sharing and interference analysis studies involving IMT-2000 systems and between IMT-2000 systems and other systems.
