We welcome new chairs for ECC and WGSE! We are delighted to inform that Christiane Seifert (BNetzA, D) was appointed as the new Chair of the Electronic Communications Committee (ECC). Likewise, Ivica Stevanovic (BAKOM, CH) was appointed as the new Chair of the Working Group Spectrum Engineering (WGSE). Christiane and Ivica have many years of experience having served as Vice Chairs in their respective groups and we are fully confident being in excellent hands for leading the ECC and WGSE into the future. We look forward to their continued leadership and the positive impact they will undoubtedly have. We express our sincere thanks to the outgoing chairs Chris Woolford (Ofcom, UK) and Jerome Andre (ANFR, F) for their outstanding leadership, efforts and achievements. The ECC develops common policies and regulations in electronic communications and related applications for Europe and is a focal point for information on spectrum use. Our primary objective is to harmonise the efficient use of the radio spectrum, satellite orbits and numbering resources across Europe. We take an active role at the international level, preparing common European proposals to represent European interests in international organisations, especially in the ITU. The WG SE is responsible for developing technical guidelines and sharing and compatibility arrangements for radio spectrum use by various radiocommunications services using the same or different frequency bands respectively.

Last week, more than 200 delegates attended the meeting of Project Team 1 https://lnkd.in/dVN9p7Nq of the Electronic Communications Committee hosted by the Estonian Regulatory Authority Tarbijakaitse ja Tehnilise Järelevalve Amet It’s been a successful week of hard work to complete the studies on the compatibility between Radio Altimeters in the 4 GHz and mobile systems in the adjacent bands. The 2027 #ITU World Radiocommunication Conference entered also the scene and #CEPT started preparing its position on possible future #IMT bands. Eiman Bushra Mohyeldin, the CEPT co-chair of the Network of women for WRC-27 #NOW4WRC27, kicked off the initiative and presented some of the planned activities. But the busy agenda did not stop delegates exploring the beautiful city of Tallin and enjoying many nice moments of more relaxed talks that helped equally the progress of the work.
