The Analysis Of Spectrum Redeployment in Indonesia
Currently Indonesia has "spectrum crunch" or spectrum
crisis, where the demand for Wireless Spectrum
frequency are increase, but the availability of spectrum are limited. One solution of this problem is add bandwidth
spectrum. The Potential spectrum to add for this case is frequency 2520 MHz - 2670 MHz (2.6 GHz frequency band) with
150 MHz bandwidth. This is based on Indonesia government target to
increase broadband penetration and the recommendation from ITU (International Telecommunication Union)
that frequency of 2.6 GHz has been identified
as IMT band so its approved
by almost of the countries to be used as terrestrial data, also the desire of Indonesian telecommunications operators
to conduct LTE services at frequency
of 2.6 GHz as recommended by ITU.
Based on the above phenomenon, We propose a research model
to redeploy 2.6 GHz frequency in
Indonesia because the 2.6 GHz is currently used for satellite pay
television services. The redeployment
models will be design in this thesis
so that moving forward 2.6 GHz can be used for broadband service, especially
for LTE. Net
benefit calculations to the spectrum redeployment model will be used to know what is the economic value if the redeployment applied in Indonesia , also whether there is a win-win condition for every stakeholder if applied that model.
Results of the study
found that , most large positive contained in alternative two with LNB scenarios subsidies .
Where for five years study period obtained a 1.92 to 2.13 trillion net benefit, which means that this alternative
has a high economic value. The model of Spectrum redeployment is also win- win
solution because this model make a spectrum compensation for the existing
services ( KU - Band Spectrum ) with LNB
subsidies, so the existing service
providers no need to pay redeployment
process.
