Compatibility Studies between 5G IoT Networks and Fixed Service in the 6425-7125 MHz Band

This work presents compatibility studies between 5G IoT networks and point-to-point fixed service in the 6425-7125 MHz band. This includes a discussion of the current sharing studies in ITU-R. We evaluated co-channel interference of 5G IoT to fixed service considering urban and suburban deployment of 5G IoT, different antenna heights of fixed service. The study includes sensitivity analysis with several protection criteria. The results represent required protection distances between receiving fixed service stations and deployed 5G IoT networks for different deployment scenarios.
