156 No. 42829 GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 8 NOVEMBER 2019 The TDD band from 1880-1900 is license exempt. And used for DECT cordless telephones and DECT WLL, the band 1900 to 1920 MHz is exclusively used by Telkom, for MGW and eMGW FWA-systems. The guard band of 5 MHz from 1915-1920 MHz is free. Proposal for extension of IMT2100 IMT2100 may be delayed due to reduced availability of terminals. Depending on the traffic requirements for GSM per operator and the increased IMT data demands due to higher IMT-terminal penetration, the opportunity to migrate to broadband IMT (i.e. LTE) may be possible in one or two steps, for example, 2×5 MHz. At later stages, Universal Mobile Telecommunications System (UMTS) will also be migrated to broadband IMT. The IMT2100 band currently consists of 2×60 MHz of spectrum in 1920-1980 MHz paired with 2110-2170 MHz. The Authority proposes to extend this band by 2x30 MHz at the top end of the current IMT2100 band. This band is currently foreseen as IMT-satellite. The consolidated IMT2100 band would therefore be 1920-2010 MHz paired with 2110-2200 MHz (see figure below). This extension of the IMT2100 band would push the paired portion of IMT2100 right against the unpaired portion of the band that extends from 2010 MHz to 2025 MHz. A guard band of 5 MHz is typically required between adjacent paired and unpaired IMT bands. Therefore, the first 5 MHz of the 10 MHz assigned to MTN from 2010 MHz to 2015 MHz could be used as a guard band. The band 2015-2025 MHz could remain usable for IMT TDD, but might be reassigned to 10 MHz for one user. MTN and Vodacom might be willing to change unused TDD spectrum for new FDD spectrum. These new TDD bands from 1885-1915 MHz plus guard bands and 2015-2025 MHz might be assigned to a TDD wholesale operator/consortium.
