Figure 3 and Figure 4 demonstrate the vast geographical distribution of data systems across the UK. There is no large single area that could be geographically separated for alignment for this type of use. Figure 3 shows both simplex and duplex operation for on-site and Figure 4 shows mainly duplex operation for wide area systems. 240689 - 450-470 Study Final Print Version (Dec08).doc Figure 3 On-site speech and data systems Page 22 Figure 4 Wide Area speech and data systems Figure 5 and Figure 6 show the usage distribution of wide area PBR and national and regional PBR. Figure 5 illustrates the geographical distribution of wide area PBR licensees are mainly used near or within the major conurbations. Most of Wales and the majority of South West England do not use wide area PBR. National and regional PBR use is mainly located in the South East with a high concentration of frequency paired use. Simplex use is quite wide spread throughout the UK for regional and national PBR licences. abc
Figure 5 Wide Area PBR 240689 - 450-470 Study Final Print Version (Dec08).doc Figure 6 National and Regional PBR Page 23 Figure 7 Public Mobile Data Figure 7 shows the geographical separation between licensees using the public mobile data service. There is a distinct natural geographical separation between users throughout the UK, which is based on terrain shielding and a lack of assignments around this identified boundary, show below at Figure 8. Figure 8 Natural geographical boundary Figure 8 shows a predicted geographical boundary based on the distribution of <strong>UHF2</strong> users in the UK that could separate the country for CEPT aligned and CEPT non-aligned use. Analysis of the geographical boundary found that areas 60km either side of the boundary line sterilises use of the <strong>UHF2</strong> band and would mean including an exclusion zone that extends south as far as Manchester and north as far as Glasgow. This level of exclusion of use would not be an attractive option for separating the country for CEPT aligned and CEPT non-aligned use and has been discounted as an option. abc
