July 6-10, 2026 in Geneva, temporary WP4A and WP4C working parties of ITU‑R
Study Group 4 met to accelerate preparation for WRC‑27. Deliberations focused on
Agenda Item 1.5 (limits on unauthorized earth-station operations) and Item 1.13
(new frequency allocations for direct‑to‑handset satellite services); CPM draft
texts were updated and both items recorded interim progress. Chinese experts
chaired the drafting group for the Item 1.13 spectrum coexistence study and led
drafting of the band compatibility/shared‑use report, with China’s delegation
actively advancing revisions to the CPM text.
