Federal Communications CommissionFCC 11-63 Beforethe Federal Communications Commission Washington, D.C. 20554 In the Matter of Amendment of Part 90 of the Commission’s Rules to Permit Terrestrial Trunked Radio (TETRA) Technology Request by the TETRA Association for Waiver of Sections 90.209, 90.210 and 2.1043 of the Commission’s Rules ) ) ) ) ) ) ) ) ) ) WT Docket No. 11-69 ET Docket No. 09-234 NOTICE OF PROPOSED RULE MAKING AND ORDER Adopted: April 18, 2011Released: April 26, 2011 Comment Date:[45 days after publication in the Federal Register] Reply Comment Date:[60 days after publication in the Federal Register] By the Commission: I.INTRODUCTION 1.In this Notice of Proposed Rule Making and Order, we propose to modify our rules to permit the certification and use of Terrestrial Trunked Radio (TETRA) equipment under Part 90 of our Rules. 1 TETRA is a spectrally efficient digital technology with the potential to provide valuable benefits to land mobile radio users. It does not, however, conform to all of our Part 90 technical rules. The TETRA Association (the Association) 2 filed a request for waiver of the Part 90 occupied bandwidth limit and emission masks, in order to permit implementation of TETRA technology in the United States. For the reasons set forth below, we grant the waiver request in part, to permit certification and use of TETRA equipment, subject to certain conditions, pending the outcome of this rulemaking proceeding. II.BACKGROUND 2.Subpart I of Part 90 of our Rules sets forth the general technical requirementsfor use of frequencies and equipment in the private land mobile radio services. Such requirements include standards for acceptability of equipment, frequency tolerance, modulation, emissions, power, and bandwidths. 3 The purpose of these technical standards is to limit wireless systems’ interference potential. 4 The Association 1 47 C.F.R. Part 90. 2 See Request for Waiver of Sections 90.209, 90.210 and 2.1043 (filed November 20, 2009) (Request). The TETRA Association is composed of 150 organizations from 37 countries, and promotes the use of TETRA technology around the world. Id.at 2. 3 See 47 C.F.R § 90.201. 4 See Biennial Regulatory Review –Amendment of Parts 1, 22, 24, 27, and 90 to Streamline and Harmonize Various Rules Affecting Wireless Radio Services, Report and Order and Notice of Proposed Rulemaking, WT Docket No. 03-264, 20 FCC Rcd 13900, 13923 n.168 (2005). Federal Communications CommissionFCC 11-63 2 asserts that, because the Part 90 technical rules were originally developed for analog technology, they are not always appropriate for evaluating more spectrally efficient digital technologies that have been developed. 5 3.TETRA is a digital, trunked radio technology that operates with Time Division Multiple Access (TDMA) in four-slot channels within a twenty-five kilohertz bandwidth. In 2009, the Association filed a request for waiver of Parts 2 and 90 of the Commission’s rules on behalf of manufacturers to allow TETRA technology to be used in the United States. The Association states that the TETRA standard, which was developed by the European Technical Standards Institute (ETSI), is used around the world, and that manufacturers are ready to produce TETRA devices for use in the United States on several frequency bands. 6 Italso states that TETRA technology provides better efficiency and security than available alternatives, 7 and offers interoperability among equipment from different manufacturers. 8 4.In order to permit implementation of TETRA technology in the United States, the Association requests waivers of the Part 90 occupied bandwidth limit and emission masks. For devices operating with twenty-five kilohertz channel spacing, Section 90.209(b)(5) of our Rules limits the authorized bandwidth to twenty kilohertz, 9 and Section 90.210 of our Rules specifies particular emission masks. 10 TETRA equipment, however, exceeds these limits, because the ETSI standard does not set occupied bandwidth limits. Instead, it sets standards for adjacent channel power and for unwanted emissions at different frequency offsets. This results in operation with a bandwidth of up to twenty-two kilohertz, 11 and excursions of up to five decibels from the Part 90 emission masks. 12 5.The Association also requests a waiver of the permissive change rules regarding equipment certification. Itnotes that certain manufacturers, in order to meet immediate demand for TETRA equipment, have obtained Commission certification of TETRA radios that comply with the Part 90 rules by using reduced power. Certain changes to approved equipment, including changes to the maximum 5 See Request at 7. 6 See id.at 2-3, 10. 7 See id.at 2-3 (“TETRA utilizes a highly efficient data transport mechanism allowing Short Data messages to be sent on the control circuit. Circuit mode data and IP packet data can be transmitted at up to 36kbits/s (gross) and 28kbits/s (net) for multi-slot operation. . . . Additionally, TETRA-based products come with built-in air interface encryption and optional end-to-end encryption features to protect the integrity of the voice/data mobile communications. Finally, TETRA allows for fast call set-up times of typically less than 300 ms which are essential for mission critical mobile communications. In sum, TETRA combines the advantages of two-way radio, mobile telephony, messaging and data in a way that is clear, fast and less expensive than other technologies.”). 8 See id.at 3. 9 See47 C.F.R. § 90.209(b)(5). 10 See47 C.F.R. § 90.210(b), (c), (g). The emission mask is the technical specification that limits the distribution of power of a radio transmitter as a function of frequency.
