In our quest for solutions to the 1000x mobile data challenge, the next stop is to explore options for more spectrum, the lifeblood of mobile networks. No wonder network operators are always hungry for more and regulators are hard at work to identify, clear, and allocate new spectrum. This presentation discusses new bands for small cells and innovative methods needed to unlock more spectrum. It covers the three paths to more spectrum, 1) licensed and exclusive use of cleared spectrum, 2) unlicensed use, dedicated to Wi-Fi et. al., and 3) authorized shared access (ASA), which is needed when spectrum cannot be cleared 24/7 or nationwide, still for licensed exclusive, but used at certain locations and times. To make use of all spectrum assets, we also need spectrum aggregation and solutions such as supplemental downlink.

Innovation and spectrum regulation and property rights : IEEE DySpan paper 2005roberto ercole
A paper from 2005.
This paper looks at the regulatory changes that are required to allow technologies such as quick and easy access to radio spectrum. Without such changes it will not be possible for DySPAN technologies to make the inroads into the market, that are required to ensure spectrum is used with the optimum economic efficiency. This access to market requires greater use of a technology neutral spectrum property right.

GDG Cloud Southlake #33: Boule & Rebala: Effective AppSec in SDLC using Deplo...James Anderson
Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).
Speakers:
Bob Boule
Robert Boule is a technology enthusiast with PASSION for technology and making things work along with a knack for helping others understand how things work. He comes with around 20 years of solution engineering experience in application security, software continuous delivery, and SaaS platforms. He is known for his dynamic presentations in CI/CD and application security integrated in software delivery lifecycle.
Gopinath Rebala
Gopinath Rebala is the CTO of OpsMx, where he has overall responsibility for the machine learning and data processing architectures for Secure Software Delivery. Gopi also has a strong connection with our customers, leading design and architecture for strategic implementations. Gopi is a frequent speaker and well-known leader in continuous delivery and integrating security into software delivery.

3. PROMOTING CHOICE • SECURING STANDARDS • PREVENTING HARM 3
2.3 GHz and 3.4 GHz Award
Award concluded on 13 April 2018
2.3 GHz band: licence awarded to Telefonica
3.4 GHz band: licences awarded to Vodafone, Hutchison, Telefonica and EE
4. PROMOTING CHOICE • SECURING STANDARDS • PREVENTING HARM 4
Future Awards
• Plan to award spectrum in 700 MHz and 3600-3800 MHz bands in 2H/2019
• Consultation on proposals for the award expected later this year
• Ofcom holding a short briefing session on Friday 25 May to brief stakeholders on key topics we
are considering in preparing to award spectrum in the 700 MHz and 3.6-3.8 GHz bands – details
on Ofcom’s website or email karen.bryant@ofcom.org.uk about attending
• Keen to meet with stakeholders to discuss any issues they wish to raise over the coming weeks
and months - particularly any detailed discussion of specific issues / topics
Next awards planned for the 700 MHz and 3600-3800 MHz bands
5. PROMOTING CHOICE • SECURING STANDARDS • PREVENTING HARM 5
Future Awards
• Ofcom published a document: Enabling 5G in the UK in March 2018. We plan to:
– release different types of spectrum bands for 5G as soon as practicable.
– further consider the possibility of increased sharing in the 3.8-4.2 GHz spectrum for
innovative new uses, while taking into account existing users. The band may be suitable for
broadband wireless systems and/or low power indoor industrial uses, such as connected
factories and industrial Internet of Things. We will continue to monitor demand and seek
evidence for these particular applications and use cases.
– encourage trials at 26 GHz, the 5G mmWave pioneer band which may important for 5G,
although possibly too early to say how the band will be used, and for what purposes.

Spectrum Trading
• Licences are granted to individuals or companies and are personal to that entity
• Licences cannot be transferred – the rights and obligations may be traded to another party by
the surrender of a licence and the issue of another
• Generally, trading is an administrative process, however…..
• ….for licence classes under the Mobile Trading Regulations, Ofcom is required to consider
whether a competition assessment of a proposed trade is necessary before deciding whether it
can give consent
• For eligible licences, applications to have leasing authorised can be made. Leasing is permitted
only once it has been added to the licence. Leasing is not currently available for spectrum falling
under the mobile trading regulations, although this may be considered in future.
Two separate regulations for Spectrum Trading:
for general licence classes
for licences where the spectrum falls under the Mobile Trading Regulations
8. PROMOTING CHOICE • SECURING STANDARDS • PREVENTING HARM 8
Sharing spectrum
• Concurrent licences are where two or more licensees hold jointly the rights and obligations of a
licence
• 12 licences for concurrent use of spectrum were awarded by auction in 2006 for 3.3 MHz at the
top of the 1800 MHz mobile band. Following expiry of the initial award period, Ofcom is currently
considering future access to this band including the possibility of additional sharers.
• Shared use of the UHF TV ‘White Space’ spectrum, where devices have shared access to
spectrum coordinated through databases to identify where spectrum is available for use
• Light licensing (e.g. 5 GHz band) where shared use of a band, subject to non-interference with
primary users in the band, is authorised through a licence requiring registration
• Exemption – many spectrum bands have been exempted from licensing for uses including low
power devices, telemetry and telecommand, CCTV, model/hobby use etc. Exemption in some
bands (such as the ISM 2.4 GHz or parts of 5 GHz) is open to commercial use. However,
exemption (on non-protected/non-interference terms) may not alwaysguarantee the quality of
spectrum or protection from future congestion / interference that might be necessary for
business or critical applications.
A number of mechanisms are currently used to share certain
areas of spectrum
