Mobile Telecommunications in Brazil

176.8 mn Subs

82.5% Prepaid

96.6% Coverage

8.1 mn 3G terminals

210 mn Subs

4.6% of Mobile Subs55 mn MBB Subs

+100% Penetration

+25% of Mobile Subs

These projections imply a steep growth, not only in the number of subscribers but also in the resulting spectrum necessities and infrastructure investments

Spectrum Allocation to SMP in Brazil The frequency bands for mobile communication in Brazil

are distributed in the following manner: 850 MHz; 900

MHz; 1700 MHz and 1800 MHz; 1900 MHz and 2100

MHz (reserved mainly for 3G).

Current Spectrum Allocation will not

be Enough

• Today, the total spectrum used for SMP in

Brazil is approximately 350MHz.

• To be able to offer higher traffic rates, larger

spectrum bands would have to be allocated

(such as 2.6GHz band).

2.6 GHz: Anatel is proposing ITU

Option 1

• Following ITU recommendations, Anatel launched in 2009 a public consultation in order to define 140 MHz additional spectrum for the SMP in the 2.6 GHz band (2500 MHz - 2690 MHz).

• ITU Option 1 band structure for 2.6 GHz band help to reap the rewards of economies of scale due to international harmonization as well as interference reduction. This is a unique opportunity to obtain 20MHz of continuous bandwidth.

• This additional 140 MHz bandwidth dedicated to mobile data will be crucial for mobile data transmission.
