ECO Frequency Information
       System (EFIS)

Speaker: Mr.Tode Mitreski-Head of Radio frequency
    Control and Monitoring Department,AEC
Overview and general info
•    41 countries - including all EU member states – are represented in EFIS

•    The ITU-R Region 1 and the European Common Allocation (ECA) table are also available (ECA
     database now merged into EFIS)

•    EFIS contains the following data types:
1.   Allocations
2.   Applications
3.   Radio interfaces
4.   Documents
5.   Right of use info

• All data types are searchable, and types 1 – 3 are comparable for the national tables as well as the ECA
and ITU tables
Allocations and Applications:
      –   for most countries extracted directly from National Tables of Frequency Allocations
      –   usually updated once or twice a year, with updates reported to ECO and EFIS/MG
      –   Commission Decision 2007/344/EC stipulates that this information (applies also to radio interfaces and
          individual rights of use) shall be updated twice a year by Member States
      –   ECA and ITU tables in EFIS are maintained by the Office.

Radio Interface Specifications:
Normative requirements for information on National Radio Interface Specifications in Annex 1 of 2007/344/EC:
Member States shall provide either by reference to the relevant standard or descriptive text and any comments as
necessary the following parameters:
             • 1. channeling
             • 2. modulation/occupied bandwidth;
             • 3. direction/separation;
             • 4. transmit power/power density;
             • 5. channel access and occupation rules
             • 6. authorization regime;
             • 7. additional essential requirements according to Article 3(3) of Directive 1999/5/EC
             • 8. frequency planning assumptions
All other information provided is voluntary and purely informative. Additional information in EFIS could be:
•    Positive restrictions, if a country allows more bandwidth or power or has less stringent medium access rules
     for spectrum sharing than defined for the European harmonised usage of a radio application in either an ECC
     or EC Decision
•    Differences in the application of the regulations, e.g. PPDR where EU/EFTA countries themselves decide
     whether radio equipment is under the scope of the R&TTE Directive or specific usage regulation.
•    Different tuning ranges mandated in various countries, e.g. for PMR or PMSE equipment
Right of Use information
•   All EU countries have included right-of-use information in the EFIS database
•   Amount and scope of this information still varies significantly across the administrations (see table)
•   Intention of Commission Decision 2007/344/EC with regard to right of use information was to focus on
    bands of major economic interest or significance. Normative requirements for the information on rights
    of use as defined in the EC Decision are as follows:
      – Information on rights of use may be limited to frequency bands used for the provision of
          electronic communications services which are tradable in accordance with Article 9.3 of Directive
          2002/21/EC or which are granted through competitive or comparative selection procedures
          pursuant to Directive 2002/20/EC.
      For relevant frequency bands Member States shall provide (acc to requirements of Dir. 95/46/EC and
      Dir. 2002/58/EC and Community and national rules on business confidentiality, the following
      information:
             1. identity of the radio frequency right holder
             2. expiry date of the right or, in the case where there is none, the expected duration
             3. geographic validity of the right by at least providing the information whether the right is
                 local (i.e. one station), regional or nation-wide
             4. an indication of whether or not the right is tradable
•   All other information related to rights of use provided by the regulatory authority in EFIS is voluntary
    and purely informative. It should be noted that the contact provided in EFIS for the right of use
    information can also be a contact point from the administration.
•   Specific national legislation or jurisdiction may make it difficult for a country to provide in specific
    cases more detailed information on rights of use.
Recent software enhancements
Major update to v. 4 22-23 Dec 2011; current software version: EFIS 4.0.4 impl. 17 February 2012



 •   New layout (to reflect ECO web style)

 •   Enhanced term selection: two ways of selecting allocation and application terms

 •   New document types, informative/non-regulatory, linked to ECA:
      •   „ECC-ECO‟, „ETSI SRdoc‟, „Draft ETSI SRdoc‟, „EU‟ documents
      •   Also, document type „National‟ spectrum evolution, uploaded by national administrations

 •   Other new document types:
      •    „EC Decisions‟, „RIS Models‟ (both linked to ECA)
      •    RIS models and R&TTE subclasses use same format – RIS models are available now; R&TTE
           subclasses will be available soon
      •    „Licensing info‟: for national administrations to upload general info on licence-exempt rulings or
           general licensing documents (e.g. PMR/PAMR)
           All documents can be selected/searched for by frequency band and/or application

 •   Grouped document display (each doc appearing only once, related info displayed next to doc)

 •   European Common allocations for the frequency range of any document linked to ECA are displayable
     via click on icon
Recent software enhancements (II)

•    New section/page in EFIS: „Spectrum inventory information‟ (ECC/ECO initiative; outside the scope of EC
     Decision on EFIS)

      •    With non-regulatory information
      •    Explanation of new non-regulatory document types
      •    ETSI SRdoc information, requested by ETSI ERM chair, to be made available in ECA/EFIS
      •    Especially the sections ECC-ECO and ETSI are now fully in use and contain significant amount of
           information on the actual spectrum use, sharing and efficient use of spectrum
      •    ECO uploads SRdoc information when the documents become available to ECC fora
           (either NWI is adopted, stage 1 or stage 2 draft SRdoc was sent to ECC group or notice that SRDoc was
           published as TR by ETSI).
      •    ECC-ECO section contains all spectrum relevant ECC/ERC Reports , CEPT Reports, ECO Reports but
           also questionnaire results etc.

•    Improved export of data from EFIS - all data can be exported in table format (csv format)

•    ECC/ERC Decision/Recommendations shown in EFIS include link to European map showing implementation
     of the Decs/Recs

•    Tooltips (currently for main menu items; will be expanded in the near future)
Software enhancements – planned/under consideration



  •   „Third party‟ documents (proposed by ECC/ECO partner, uploaded by ECO)

  •   Investigation of the need to add “protected areas” in EFIS in connection with non-regulatory information:
      support confidential/restricted data in information collection processes (e.g. spectrum inventories)

  •   Section for more detailed spectrum information: subset of the full EFIS application list will be used in
      line with requirements to collect data for purposes related to the spectrum inventory project

  •   Establishment of spectrum inventory contact list
Development of new ECC Report in ECC WGFM (EFIS/MG)


   •   Guidance, incl. structuring of the information for uploading national non-regulatory information
       on the evolution of spectrum use will be given in the new ECC Report which is under
       development in the EFIS/MG


   •   The bands (incl. application and requested format for the information) of interest for which
       National non-regulatory information is requested by ECC WGFM can be updated on demand

   •   The software, however, is more flexible and allows the collection of information also on other
       bands if available
EFIS frontpage (www.efis.dk)
More detailed spectrum information page
Non-regulatory document types
Example of document search for specific frequency band
Grouped document display
„RIS Model‟ document display
Display of European Common allocations for documents
ECC Decs/Recs – implementation map
ETSI SRDocs in the detailed spectrum information section
ETSI Draft SRDocs in detailed spectrum
information section
Thank you very much for your attention.

Software enhancements – planned/under consideration • „Third party‟ documents (proposed by ECC/ECO partner, uploaded by ECO) • Investigation of the need to add “protected areas” in EFIS in connection with non-regulatory information: support confidential/restricted data in information collection processes (e.g. spectrum inventories) • Section for more detailed spectrum information: subset of the full EFIS application list will be used in line with requirements to collect data for purposes related to the spectrum inventory project • Establishment of spectrum inventory contact list
  • 8. Development of new ECC Report in ECC WGFM (EFIS/MG) • Guidance, incl. structuring of the information for uploading national non-regulatory information on the evolution of spectrum use will be given in the new ECC Report which is under development in the EFIS/MG • The bands (incl. application and requested format for the information) of interest for which National non-regulatory information is requested by ECC WGFM can be updated on demand • The software, however, is more flexible and allows the collection of information also on other bands if available
  • 10. More detailed spectrum information page
  • 12. Example of document search for specific frequency band
  • 15. Display of European Common allocations for documents
  • 16. ECC Decs/Recs – implementation map
  • 17. ETSI SRDocs in the detailed spectrum information section
  • 18. ETSI Draft SRDocs in detailed spectrum information section
  • 19. Thank you very much for your attention.

  1. The ERO Frequency Information system EFIS is a portal for spectrum information whichcurrently allows search and comparison of frequency allocations, frequency applicationsand radio interfaces.
  2. Further facilities such as search and comparison of radio interfaces, and right of useinformation in a standard format for those frequency bands of high economic interestwhere market mechanisms would apply
