10.1 There is currently a single incumbent in the band between 2575 MHz to 2595 MHz.

 

10.2 Given the fact that TDD mode does not require a guard band, and in order to avoid interference between TDD networks operating in adjacent frequency carriers, radio transmissions of adjacent TDD networks should be synchronised and with the uplink and downlink frames aligned in time.

 

10.3 The incumbent may retain the assignment in the frequency band and must perform synchronisation with other licensees operating in TDD  in order to avoid interference between TDD networks operating in adjacent frequency carriers, and accordance with the Network synchronization for the frequency band 2500 to 2690 MHz as defined in Appendix E.
