The WRC-07 decisions have paved the way toward the development of IMT-advanced by identifying a 200-MHz contiguous spectrum above 3 GHz for a number of countries. It is also noted that for early implementation of IMT-advanced there are technical subjects to be studied and solved, in particular for compatible operation with other systems sharing the same frequency bands. For the standardization activities, global cooperation between ITU-R and other organizations are required.
