Summary of marketing plan
The Minister for Communications, Information Technology and the Arts has made a spectrum re-allocation declaration under section 153B of Part 3.6 of the Act with respect to the 2 GHz bands in specified geographic areas. The effect of this declaration is that the areas and parts of the spectrum referred to in the declaration are subject to re-allocation by issuing spectrum licences. The declaration sets a “re-allocation period” during which time it is intended that the spectrum licences will be allocated. Apparatus licences in a part of the spectrum covered by a declaration will be cancelled automatically at the end of the re-allocation period (section 153H of the Act). The Act also requires that the declaration must set a “re-allocation deadline”. The significance of the re-allocation deadline is that where a re-allocation declaration states that a part of the spectrum should be re-allocated by issuing spectrum licences, at least one licence must be issued by the re-allocation deadline. If no spectrum licences are issued by the re-allocation deadline, the declaration is taken to have been revoked immediately after the deadline (section 153K of the Act).
A summary of the overall process is as follows:
· Parts of the 2 GHz bands have been divided into lots for sale. The lots consist of a geographic area and a particular bandwidth. It is intended that these lots will be allocated and become the subject of spectrum licences.
· Allocation will be by way of a simultaneous ascending auction (details are in the Radiocommunications (Spectrum Licence Allocation — 2 GHz Band) Determination 2000).
· The ACA will advertise details of the auction as soon as practicable after this Plan is published. This will be at least one month before the date of the auction. Interested parties must register to take part in the auction before the closing date.
· The successful applicant for a lot will be entitled to have a spectrum licence issued that includes the lot as soon as practicable after the ACA has received payment of the final bid price for the lot and payment of the spectrum access charge (section 62 (2) of the Act).
· A spectrum licence will contain core conditions and conditions relating to other aspects of spectrum use (sections 66-71 of the Act). An example of a spectrum licence is attached.
· The licence will come into force on the day specified in the licence, and will be in force for the period set out in the licence (section 65 of the Act). This period cannot be longer than 15 years. The ACA intends that all licences for a particular band be in force for 15 years.
· The ACA will publish information regarding licences that are due to expire during the two years before the expiry date (section 78 of the Act). Current licensees will also receive periodic reminders that their licence is due to expire.
· Re-allocation of licences will be by way of price based allocation (sections 80, 81). Only if it is in the public interest to do so will the ACA re-issue spectrum licences to existing licensees without conducting a re-allocation (section 82).

PART 2-ALLOCATION OF SPECTRUM LICENCES
Issue of spectrum licences
2.1. (1) The ACA will issue spectrum licences for the parts of the spectrum in the 2 GHz band that are subject to the re-allocation declaration.
(2) The ACA will issue the licences to the persons to whom the licences are allocated under a price-based allocation system determined under section 60 of the Act.
(3) No part of the spectrum in the 2 GHz band subject to this Marketing Plan will be reserved for public or community services.
Identification of lots
2.2. (1) The ACA has divided the parts of the spectrum that have been declared for re-allocation by the Minister into lots.
(2) Each lot represents a part of the spectrum that is defined in terms of its geographic area and frequency band.
(3) The geographic area of a lot is the area described in Schedule 2 for the area named in column 2 of Schedule 3 for the lot.
(4) The frequency band of a lot described in Schedule 3 comprises the frequencies in the frequency range greater than the frequency set out in columns 4 and 6 of an item in Schedule 3 up to and including the frequency set out in columns 5 and 7of the item.
Allocation of lots
2.3. (1) Lots will be allocated and will then become the subject of spectrum licences.
(2) The ACA will issue spectrum licences to cover the lots that have been allocated in accordance with this Marketing Plan.
[Note: The ACA issues spectrum licences under Subdivision B of Division 1 of Part 3.2 of the Act.]
How licences will be allocated
2.4. (1) The first allocation will be by simultaneous ascending auction, in accordance with the procedures set out in the Allocation Determination.
[Note: The determination sets out the procedures for allocating spectrum licences by a simultaneous ascending auction.]
(2) All of the lots listed in Schedule 3 will be available for auction at the same time.
(3) The ACA may hold further allocations by a means to be determined by the ACA under section 60 of the Act.
(4) However, the ACA will not hold an auction if:
(a) the total amount of bandwidth nominated for each area by all applicants for the area, is equal to or less than the bandwidth available for the area; and
(b) the ACA offers each applicant a licence for a bandwidth, in the area nominated by the applicant, at the starting bid price; and
(c) each applicant accepts the licence offered.
[Note: In this case, the ACA will allocate the licences for a pre-determined price - see Part 3 of the Radiocommunications (Spectrum Licence Allocation — 2 GHz Band) Determination 2000.]
(5) If an applicant rejects a licence offered, the ACA may:
(a) withdraw from sale all spectrum covered by the licences offered; or
(b) allocate all that spectrum by auction; or
(c) allocate licences to the applicants who have accepted the offered licences and, for lots covered by licences that were refused:
(i) allocate those lots by auction, in accordance with the Allocation Determination; or
(ii) withdraw those lots from allocation and allocate the spectrum covered by those lots at a later date.
Lot ratings
2.5. (1) Each lot has a lot rating fixed by the ACA.
(2) The lot rating for a lot is the value set out in column 3 of the item in Schedule 3 in which the lot is mentioned.
(3) The lot rating is used as the basis for working out an applicant’s initial eligibility and the eligibility payment payable by an applicant. Details of these are in sections 2.5A, 2.6 and 2.7 of the Allocation Determination.
Advertising auction
2.6. (1) The ACA will advertise details of the auction as soon as practicable after this Plan is published.
(2) Details of the advertisement is set out in section 2.2 of the Allocation Determination.
(3) The ACA will not conduct an auction until at least 30 days after the publication of this advertisement.
Registration
2.7. (1) The advertisement will invite people to apply to the ACA to take part in the auction.
(2) The ACA will make available to interested people an Applicant Information Package that contains more detail about application requirements and the auction process. Details of what is in the Package are in section 2.3 of the Allocation Determination.
(3) Anyone wishing to take part in the auction must lodge their application by the application closing date in the advertisement and pay their eligibility payment and performance payment or lodge their Deed of Financial Security by the eligibility payment date. Details of how to apply are in Part 2 of the Allocation Determination.
Amount of eligibility payment
2.8. An applicant for registration must pay an eligibility payment by the eligibility payment date. The amount of eligibility payment payable is based on the eligibility nominated by the applicant in the application for registration.
[Note: To find out how the eligibility payment is worked out see section 2.7 of the Allocation Determination.]
Entitlement to licence
2.9. Except where allocation limits set out in Part 1A of the Allocation Determination are exceeded, a successful applicant for a lot is entitled to be issued a licence that includes the lot as soon as practicable after the balance of bid price is received by the ACA.
[Note: Details of payment requirements for the balance of bid price are in Part 5 of the Allocation Determination.]
Sample licence
2.10. Schedule 4 sets out:
(a) a sample spectrum licence; and
(b) the conditions that may be included in a spectrum licence that is issued in a part of the spectrum referred to in the re-allocation declaration.
Core licence conditions
2.11. (1) Section 66 of the Act requires a licence to contain core conditions that define the parts of the spectrum that can be used under the licence, in terms of:
(a) frequency band; and
(b) geographic area; and
(c) emission limits outside the area; and
(d) emission limits outside the band.
(2) These conditions will be included in the licence.
Other licence conditions
2.12. The licence will also include conditions about:
(a) payment of charges (section 67 of the Act); and
(b) use by third parties (section 68); and
(c) registration of transmitters (section 69); and
(d) other matters that the ACA may include in the licence (section 71).
Determination of core licence conditions
2.13. (1) The core conditions for the geographic area of a licence will apply to the area or the aggregation of areas described in Schedule 2 that cover the lots allocated to the licensee in the allocation under section 60 of the Act.
(2) The core conditions for frequency bands will apply to the bands or aggregation of bands described in columns 4 and 5 of Schedule 3 that cover the lots allocated to the licensee.
Emission limits
2.14. (1) The emission limits outside the area for all licences are worked out in accordance with Schedule 5.
(2) The emission limits outside the band for all licences are worked out in accordance with Schedule 6.
[Note: These core conditions may be varied by the ACA with the licensee’s agreement - see section 72 of the Act.]
Agreements about emission limits
2.15. A licensee may enter into an agreement for the purpose of:
(a) core condition 7 as specified in the sample licence in schedule 4 (about emission limits outside the geographic area of the licence); or
(b) core condition 15 as specified in the sample licence in schedule 4 (about emission limits outside the frequency band of the licence); or
(c) both of those core conditions.
The agreement must be in accordance with the form set out in Schedule 5 to the licence.
Duration of licences
2.16. The licences issued under this Plan will be for fixed terms of 15 years.
[Notes: 1. Section 65 of the Act provides that the maximum duration of a spectrum licence is 15 years.
2. The licences will start on 12 October 2002, immediately after the end of the reallocation period.]
Registration of licences
2.17. (1) The ACA will register licences, as required by section 144 of the Act.
[Note: Details about registration are in the Radiocommunications (Contents of Register) Determination No.1 of 1997.]
(2) Each spectrum licence will include a condition that prohibits operation of a transmitter unless any requirements under Part 3.5 of the Act to have the transmitter registered have been met.
[Note: Section 69 of the Act deals with this.]
(3) Transmitters that are part of a group of transmitters may be registered individually or as a group.
(4) The ACA does not propose to register a mobile transmitter that operates in the 2 GHz band with maximum radiated true mean power of 24.5 dBm or less.
Trading in licences
2.18. As permitted by Division 5 of Part 3.2 of the Act, a licensee may assign or otherwise deal with the whole or any part of a licence. The ACA has made rules under section 88 of the Act to regulate trading in licences. The rules restrict trading by reference to whole standard trading units and minimum contiguous bandwidth.
Spectrum licences that are about to expire
2.19. (1) As required by section 78 of the Act, the ACA will publish notices periodically in the Gazette:
(a) stating where information can be obtained about spectrum licences that are due to expire within the next two years; and
(b) inviting expressions of interest from people who want to have these licences issued to them.
(2) The information will also be available from any of the ACA’s Area Offices.
(3) The ACA will also send licensees regular reminders during the last two years of the term of their licences that the licences are due to expire.
Re-issue of licences
2.20. (1) The ACA will re-issue licences, in accordance with Division 4 of Part 3.2 of the Act.
(2) As a general rule, licences will only be re-issued after the lots they cover are offered for re-allocation by auction, tender, or predetermined or negotiated price. In re-allocating the licences, the ACA will follow the procedures set out in the determinations made under section 60 of the Act that are in force at the time.
(3) However, as set out in section 82 of the Act, the ACA may re-issue a licence to the previous licensee without re-allocating the licence if it is in the public interest to do so.
(4) Spectrum licences that are re-issued are unlikely to take the same form as originally issued as the spectrum lots may be divided and distributed differently. Licensees should not assume that they will be re-issued with their existing licence.
PART 3¾SPECTRUM USAGE AND COMPATIBILITY
Compatibility requirements
3.1. (1) The Advisory Guidelines set out:
(a) compatibility requirements for the receivers of various apparatus licensed services in the 2 GHz band and in adjacent frequency bands; and
(b) recommended methods of coordinating radiocommunications services to be operated in spectrum licensed space.
(2) The Advisory Guidelines provide a means of coordinating services operating under spectrum licences with other services operating under spectrum licences and with those operating under apparatus licences.
(3) Each licensee must ensure that the operation of their service does not cause an unacceptable level of interference to other services that they are obliged to protect.
(4) These compatibility requirements apply to a receiver that:
(a) operates or will operate under an apparatus licence or a class licence; and
(b) is outside:
(i) the frequency bands of spectrum licences; or
(ii) the geographic limits of spectrum licences; and
(c) operates inside the frequency bands or geographic areas to be subject to spectrum licenses.

SCHEDULE 4 (continued)
LICENCE SCHEDULE 2
CORE CONDITIONS
Frequency Band
1. This licence authorises the operation of radiocommunications devices in the frequency band that consists of the contiguous range of frequencies between the upper and lower frequency limits set out in Items 9 and 10 of Part 2 of Schedule 1, respectively.
Geographic Area
2. This licence authorises the operation of radiocommunications devices in the geographic area set out at Part 3 of Schedule 1.
Emission Limits Outside the Area
3. Core conditions 4 and 5 apply in those geographic areas :
(a) that are outside the geographic areas set out at Part 3 of Schedule 1; and
(b) for which there is no agreement for the purposes of core condition 7 in force; and
(c) for which the licensee does not hold another spectrum licence in the 2 GHz band.
4. For in-band radio emissions, the emission limits in a geographic area to which this condition applies are:
(a) for a terrestrial transmitter, the transmitter horizontally radiated power set out at Item 11 of Part 2 of Schedule 1; and
(b) for a HAPS transmitter, the transmitter radiated power set out at Item 12 of Part 2 of Schedule 1.
5. The level of emission in a geographic area to which this condition applies is to be estimated with a level of confidence not less than 95 percent that the true level of emission remains below the relevant emission limit plus 2 dB.
[Notes:
1. This core condition is designed to assist technological neutrality and at all times limits the power spectral density of a terrestrial transmitter located anywhere within the geographic area of the licence to a specified EIRP in a rectangular bandwidth of 30 kHz. The limit has an important function in the management of receiver intermodulation. It also limits the power flux density of signals present on the earth's surface outside the area, caused by high altitude platform stations. There may be additional constraints on radiated power caused by the device boundary criterion of the relevant s.145 Determination or the compatibility requirements of related Advisory Guidelines.
SCHEDULE 4 (continued)
LICENCE SCHEDULE 2 (continued)
CORE CONDITIONS (continued)
Except where the occupied bandwidth of a transmitter is less than 30 kHz, the core condition does not place a limit on the total radiated power for a transmitter. However, total radiated power is limited indirectly by:
(a) the cost of high power amplifiers;
(b) the general requirement to use low powers in cellular systems; and
(c) the emission limits outside the band becoming increasingly difficult to satisfy as total transmitter power increases.]
6. Core condition 7 applies in those geographic areas that are outside the geographic areas set out at Part 3 of Schedule 1 and:
(a) for which there is an agreement in force for the purposes of that core condition; or
(b) for which the licensee holds another spectrum licence in the 2 GHz band.
7. The emission limits outside the area are the level that does not cause the core emission limits to be exceeded in any geographic area:
(a) for which there is no agreement for the purposes of this core condition in force; and
(b) for which the licensee does not hold another spectrum licence in the 2 GHz band.
Emission Limits Outside the Band
8. Core conditions 9-13 (inclusive) apply in those parts of the spectrum:
(a) for which there is no agreement for the purposes of core condition 15 in force; and
(b) for which the licensee does not hold another spectrum licence in the 2 GHz band.
9. The following maximum permitted levels of emission outside the frequency
band of the licence apply except where:(a) a written agreement exists, between the licensee and all the affected
licensees of frequency-adjacent spectrum licences, setting out
increased maximum permitted levels; and(b) if non-spectrum licensed space is affected, the licensee provides written agreement to increase maximum permitted levels to the ACA and the
ACA has varied the relevant licence conditions.SCHEDULE 4 (continued)

[Note: Emission limits outside the band manage levels of:
(a) modulation and intermodulation products outside the frequency band of the licence associated with:
(i) the transmitted information; and
(ii) where applicable, multicarrier transmitters.
(b) transmitter broadband noise; and
(c) transmitter narrowband signals from frequency combining processes, including multicoupling of transmitters into an antenna; and
(d) receiver emissions.]
PART 1¾BASE EMISSION LIMITS
1. This Part applies in those parts of the spectrum:
(a) for which there is no agreement for the purposes of core condition 15 in force; and
(b) for which the licensee does not hold another spectrum licence in the 2 GHz band.
2. Spurious emission - 2 GHz transmitters
For radio emission that is:
(a) spurious emission; and
(b) caused by transmitters operating under spectrum licences issued for the 2 GHz band; and
(c) at frequencies outside the frequency band of the licence;
the emission limit outside the band is a radiated mean power of:
(d) -36 dBm EIRP measured within a 1 kHz rectangular bandwidth that is within the band 9 kHz to 150 kHz; and
(e) -36 dBm EIRP measured within a 10 kHz rectangular bandwidth that is within the band 150 kHz to 30 MHz; and
(f) -36 dBm EIRP measured within a 100 kHz rectangular bandwidth that is within the band 30 MHz to 1 GHz; and
(g) -11 dBm EIRP measured within a 100 kHz rectangular bandwidth that is within the band 1 GHz to 3.7 GHz; and
(h) -30 dBm EIRP measured within a 100 kHz rectangular bandwidth that is within the band 3.7 GHz to 12.75 GHz.
3. Non-spurious emission outside the designated bands - 2 GHz transmitters
3.1 For radio emission that is:
(a) not spurious emission; and
(b) caused by a transmitter operating under a spectrum licence issued for the 2 GHz band; and
(c) at frequencies outside the frequency bands 1900 MHz to 1920 MHz; and
(d) offset from 1900 MHz;
the emission limits outside the band are for frequency bands containing frequencies that have offsets:
(e) within the range 0 kHz to 0.4 MHz - a radiated maximum true mean power of -16 dBm EIRP per 30 kHz; and
(f) within the range 0.4 MHz to 1.0 MHz - a radiated maximum true mean power of -20 dBm EIRP per 30 kHz; and
(g) greater than 1.0 MHz - a radiated maximum true mean power of -30 dBm EIRP per 30 kHz.
3.2 For radio emission that is:
(a) not spurious emission; and
(b) caused by a transmitter operating under a spectrum licence issued for the 2 GHz band; and
(c) at frequencies outside the frequency bands 1920 MHz to 1980 MHz and 2110 MHz to 2170 MHz; and
(d) offset from 1980 MHz, 2110 MHz and 2170 MHz;
the emission limits outside the band are for frequency bands containing frequencies that have offsets:
(e) within the range 0 kHz to 0.75 MHz - a radiated maximum true mean power of 12 dBm EIRP per 30 kHz; and
(f) within the range 0.75 MHz to 1 MHz - a radiated maximum true mean power of 2 dBm EIRP per 30 kHz; and
(g) within the range 1 MHz to 5 MHz - a radiated maximum true mean power of -9 dBm EIRP per 30 kHz; and
(h) greater than 5 MHz - a radiated maximum true mean power of -16 dBm EIRP per 30 kHz.
3.3 However, when the emission limits outside the band at any frequency and specified in Clause 4 are lower, the limits set out in Clause 4 apply.
4. Non-spurious emission inside the designated bands - 2 GHz transmitters
4.1 For radio emission that is:
(a) not spurious emission; and
(b) caused by a transmitter operating under a spectrum licence issued for the 2 GHz band within the band 1900-1920 MHz; and,
(c) at frequencies outside the frequency band of the licence; and
(d) offset from the upper and lower limits of the frequency band;
the emission limits outside the band are for frequency bands containing frequencies that have offsets:
(e) within the range 0 kHz to 0.4 MHz - a radiated maximum true mean power of 4 dBm EIRP per 30 kHz; and
(f) within the range 0.4 MHz to 5 MHz - a radiated maximum true mean power of -16 dBm EIRP per 30 kHz; and
(g) greater than 5 MHz - a radiated maximum true mean power of -25 dBm EIRP per 30 kHz.
4.2 For radio emission that is:
(a) not spurious emission; and
(b) caused by a transmitter operating under a spectrum licence issued for the 2 GHz band within the bands 1920-1980 MHz and 2110-2170 MHz; and,
(c) at frequencies outside the frequency band of the licence; and
(d) offset from the upper and lower limits of the frequency band;
the emission limits outside the band are for frequency bands containing frequencies that have offsets:
(e) within the range 0 kHz to 0.75 MHz - a radiated maximum true mean power of 12 dBm EIRP per 30 kHz; and
(f) within the range 0.75 MHz to 1.0 MHz - a radiated maximum true mean power of 2 dBm EIRP per 30 kHz; and
(g) within the range 1 MHz to 5 MHz - a radiated maximum true mean power of -9 dBm EIRP per 30 kHz; and
(h) greater than 5 MHz - a radiated maximum true mean power of -16 dBm EIRP per 30 kHz.
5. 2 GHz receivers
For radio emission that is;
(a) caused by receivers operating under spectrum licences issued for the 2 GHz band; and
(b) at frequencies outside the frequency band of the licence;
the emission limit outside the band is a radiated mean power of:
(c) -57 dBm EIRP measured within a 100 kHz rectangular bandwidth that is within the band 9 kHz to 1 GHz; and
(d) -23 dBm EIRP measured within a 100 kHz rectangular bandwidth that is within the band 1 GHz to 3.7 GHz; and
(e) -47 dBm EIRP measured within a 100 kHz rectangular bandwidth that is within the band 3.7 GHz to 12.75 GHz
6. For the purposes of paragraph 5, the level of emission is to be estimated after taking into account:
(a) the kind of antenna; and
(b) the kind of equipment used with the antenna; and
(c) the location and immediate physical environment in which the antenna operates.

PART 2¾OTHER EMISSION LIMITS
1. This Part applies in that part of the spectrum:
(a) for which there is an agreement in force for the purposes of core condition 15; or
(b) for which the licensee holds another spectrum licence in the 2 GHz band.
2. The emission limits outside the band are the level that does not cause the base emission limits in Part 1 of this Schedule to be exceeded in any part of the spectrum:
(a) for which there is no agreement for the purposes of core condition 15 in force; and
(b) for which the licensee does not hold another spectrum licence in the 2 GHz band.
