Standard Radio System Plan SRSP-102, Band-Specific Technical Requirements for Earth Stations in the Fixed-Satellite Service, issue 2, replaces SRSP-102, Band-Specific Technical Requirements for Earth Stations in the Fixed-Satellite Service, issue 1, dated August 2023.
The following are the main changes:
1. The addition of annex B, following the publication of SPB-001-25, Addendum to the Non-Competitive Local Licensing Framework to include Spectrum in the 27.5-28.35 GHz Band , describing the technical requirements for earth stations operating in the 27.5-28.35 GHz band.
2. References to other applicable documents have been updated.
3. Editorial changes and clarifications have been made, as appropriate.

ISED is initiating a consultation on the repurposing of the lower portion of the 26 GHz band (24.25-26.5 GHz) to flexible use.
In addition, this document is an addendum to the consultation entitled SPB-001-22, Consultation on a Policy and Licensing Framework for Spectrum in the 26, 28 and 38 GHz Bands (the 2022 Consultation) to change the proposed spectrum available for future mmWave auction and non-competitive local (NCL) licensing processes.

The Department of Innovation, Science and Economic Development Canada is seeking comments on the consultation of the following technical and operational requirements in the mmWave band:

RSS-193, Issue 1 – Flexible Use Broadband Equipment Operating in the Band 27.5-28.35 GHz
RSS-102.IPD.MEAS, Issue 2 – Measurement Procedure for Assessing Incident Power Density (IPD) Compliance in Accordance with RSS-102
RSS-102.IPD.SIM, Issue 2 – Simulation Procedure for Assessing Incident Power Density (IPD) Compliance in Accordance with RSS-102
SRSP-522, Issue 1 – Technical Requirements for Non-Competitive Local Licensed Systems, including Fixed and/or Mobile Systems, and Flexible Use Broadband Systems, in the Band 27.5-28.35 GHz

ISED has requested RABC review the draft first issue of Standard Radio System Plan (RSS-103). Technical Requirements for Space Stations providing Supplemental Mobile Coverage by Satellite, specifies the technical requirements for efficient use of space stations to provide supplemental terrestrial coverage based on the Decision on a Policy, Licensing and Technical Framework for Supplemental Mobile Coverage by Satellite. This SRSP specifies system characteristics relating to efficient spectrum usage only and is not to be regarded as a comprehensive specification for equipment design and/or selection. The SRSP does not apply to SMCS user equipment. Instead, such equipment must comply with the provisions of the Radio Standards Specifications (RSSs) and SRSPs corresponding to the relevant bands of operation.
