Rebanding Update

Basic Rebanding Message
Interference has been a serious problem for 800 MHz
Public Safety and Critical Infrastructure communications
FCC spent 2 1/2 years studying problem with 10’s of
thousands of pages of comments
Report and Order was designed to reduce PS interference
If you are impacted, it is mandatory--you can’t get out of it
All costs are covered
Motorola is here to help you through the process and
provide the absolute minimum disruption to your operation
2
Impacts to Subscribers
and Infrastructure
3
Motorola’s System Categories
System impact falls into 4 categories based upon
channels used
A – Channels in first 120 only
(806.0125/851.0125 – 808.9875/853.9875)
 No NPSPAC 821-824 Channels at all
B – Channels in NPSPAC only
(821.0125/866.0125 – 823.9875/868.9875)
 No Channels in 806-809 General Category
C – Channels in NPSPAC and first 120 / Expansion
D – Channels in Interleaved spectrum
(809.0125/854.0125 – 815.9875/860.9875)
 No NPSPAC 821-824 Channels at all
 No 806-809 General Category Channels
Note: Expansion Band
PS will move, unless
they opt to stay
4
Retune/Reprogram/Update/Replace
Definitions
 Retune: Updating the channel frequencies via the
Customer Programming Software/Radio Service
Software programming software
 Reprogram: Updating operating software via
software FLASH with new frequencies & band plan
 Update: One or more boards must be replaced in
the equipment to enable retuning or reprogramming
 Replace: Cannot be updated to support new
frequencies or band plans
5
Subscriber Impact -- Category A
Channels in first 120 only
 System with channels from
851.0125 / 806.0125 to
853.9875 / 808.9875
 Relocates to channels from
854.0125 / 809.0125 to
861.9875 / 816.9875
 Does not have any NPSPAC
channels including Mutual
Aid programmed in radio
 Equipment impact
 Radio units can be retuned to
new frequencies
 Radios in red are class B IM
protection. Motorola
recommends replacing those
units for better interference
protection after rebanding*
*
Costs to replace radios that can be retuned or
reprogrammed will be the responsibility of the
licensee

 May be a multi-step process
 First Relocation from lower 120
(851.0125 / 806.0125 to 853.9875 /
808.9875) is retune only
 Second Relocation to rechanneled

Subscriber Impact -- Category D
Channels in Interleaved spectrum
System with channels from 854.0125 /
809.0125 – 860.9875 / 815.9875 only
At this time, no impact;
However,
Public Safety licensees in new Expansion
band channels 860.0125 / 815.0125 to
860.9875 / 815.9875 can relocate if desired to
frequencies below 809-815 / 854-860 MHz.
Project only requires retuning for those who
move out of Expansion Band

Subscriber Summary
If system is 806-816 MHZ only it is a Retune
If subscriber has any NPSPAC trunking
channels, use replacement radio chart
Be sure you’ve checked your interoperability plans
Rebanding radios are driven by 3 factors
Display
Encryption
Number of channels
Accessories will be swapped on 1 for 1 basis

Software Development and Certification
Effort For Fielded Units
 New channel assignment required to move NPSPAC to
lower part of band
 Channel Spacing in 806-809 changes with new band plan
 Channel number to frequency translation must change
 Control channel list has been increased to allow old and new
assignments
 Failsoft channel list has been increased to allow old and new
assignments
 New plan allows radios to work on either upgraded or not
upgraded site
 Simplifies rebanding migration process
 Minimizes disruption to Licensees
 Greatly reduces infrastructure costs and overlay requirements
 Reduces number of duplicate systems needed
 Enables system-wide mobility throughout customer migration

Infrastructure Summary
Impact on Non-NPSPAC Systems is Retune
Impact on NPSPAC Systems requires more
effort: Reprogram or Update
SMARTNET I & II need HW Replacements
Other Systems need new SW
New band plan software incorporates both
before and after plans
Simplifies rebanding process significantly
