Spectrum sharing agreements have reportedly been reached between the US telecoms regulator, the Federal Communications Committee (FCC), and Mexican telecoms officials regarding frequencies in the 800MHz and 1900MHz bands. Further, authorities from the two countries have also inked a joint statement for the continued coordination of spectrum along the US-Mexican border, which also calls for cooperation on telecommunications policy issues, and an ‘ambitious work plan’, the Directory of Bilateral Issues, for 2012-2014. Meanwhile, with specific reference to the agreements related to the 800MHz band, the FCC noted in a press release on the matter that the new protocol: allots band segments between the US and Mexico; specifies the technical parameters for operation on these band segments within 110km of the common border; and creates a bi-national taskforce to support the transition of incumbent operators along the border to the new allotment plan.
