Digital dividend: 700 MHz for

Indonesia: 100 % still in use for legacy analogue TV
Global practice. Europe,
Americas, Africa, Oceania, Asia
(i.e. China, Japan, Korea,
Philippines, Thailand + others)
Significant economic and
social benefits
The world has moved on from
analogue TV
Digital Dividend
Urgent milestones needed for Indonesia to benefit from digital
transition and realize the digital dividend
1) Broadcasting Act amendment: sunset provision
on spectrum rights used by legacy analogue TV
broadcasting as soon as possible
2) Analogue TV switch-off date: announcement of
ASO date. Implement Digital Switch Over (DSO) plan
to convert to digital TV
3) 700 MHz release date for mobile broadband:
announce and implement the assignment of the 700
MHz spectrum for mobile broadband (digital dividend)

3. Develop funding policy
1. Develop DSO policy and legal framework
3. Manage radio spectrum and coordination matters
2. Implement licensing framework
4. Establish principles for help scheme
4. Plan and deploy DTT network
3. Develop communications plan
2. Establish DTT branding and conformance regime
1. Develop consumer proposition
5. Establish receiver specifications and costs
1. Decide on technology and standards
2. Establish plan for ASO

DSO: recommendations
Step 2: Consider
national frequency table
Step 3:
Engage and consult
Step 1:
Accelerate DSO
Step 4: Determine
optimal allocation
Step 5:
Public announcements
Step 6: Address spectrum
management issues

Releasing the 700 MHz digital dividend: Licensing terms
and conditions
LICENCE TERMS & CONDITIONS CAN SUPPORT NETWORK EVOLUTION & INVESTMENT
Establish a license-renewal
process inc consultation 3-4 years
in advance
Renewal should be predictable
and avoid introducing new terms
which jeopardise RoI
A presumption of renewal (unless
terms breached) supports service
continuity and investment
RENEWAL PROCESS SHOULD AVOID RISKING INVESTMENT & SERVICE CONTINUITY
Use coverage
obligations with
caution and target
them
Remove service
and technology
restrictions
License duration
of 15 to 20 years
Use annual fees
to recoup costs –
not maximise
revenues
Avoid restrictive
and onerous
conditions
• Terrestrial wireless backhaul is the most popular backhaul method
today, and will still have the largest worldwide share by 2025.

The growing need of spectrum for backhaul
In summary, the 700 MHz digital dividend spectrum should
be made available:
AT THE RIGHT TIME
The earlier the better
Use a spectrum roadmap
IN SUFFICIENT QUANTITY
Capacity crush in cities will define the
commercial offering of an operator
Work with the operators to understand
how much is needed
UNDER THE RIGHT
CONDITIONS
Technology Neutrality is very important
AT THE RIGHT PRICE
Auctions should
determine the price
