NOTE: These are the GSO locations identified in ITU-R SA.Doc.7/97 and ITU-R SA.1276 as referred to in Recommendation ITU-R F.1249 (1997) and Recommendation ITU-R F.1509 (2001). Copies are available from the ACA.
Schedule 1 Amendments
[16] Schedule 5, Licence Schedule 4, clause 5
substitute
5. A wide beamwidth transmitter operated under this licence must not radiate a maximum true mean power at angles above the horizontal plane:
(a) in the direction of the GSO locations specified in Table 1:
(i) in the case of non-Time Division Duplex equipment:
(A) at angles less than or equal to 20°, exceeding 38 dBm/MHz; and
(B) at angles greater than 20° and less than or equal to 90°, exceeding 44 – 10 log(angle/5) dBm/MHz; and
(ii) in the case of Time Division Duplex equipment:
(A) at angles less than or equal to 20o, exceeding 38 dBm/MHz plus a relaxation factor that is the lesser of 3 dB and 7 log(1/δ) dB, where δ is the proportion of time between 0 and 1 in which the transmitter radiates; and
(B) at angles greater than 20° and less than or equal to 90°, exceeding 44 – 10 log(angle/5) plus a relaxation factor that is the lesser of 3 dB and 7 log(1/δ) dB, where δ is the proportion of time between 0 and 1 in which the transmitter radiates; and
(b) in any other direction:
(i) at angles less than or equal to 5o, exceeding 44 dBm/MHz; and
(ii) at angles greater than 5° and less than or equal to 90°, exceeding 44 – 10 log(angle/5) dBm/MHz;
except when precipitation attenuation is experienced between the transmitter and the intended receiver. In this case, the transmitter may increase its power by an amount not exceeding the precipitation attenuation up to a maximum of 47 dBm/MHz.
[NOTES: 1. These emission limits have been included to reflect the requirements of ITU-R F.1509. The ACA may authorise maximum true mean powers greater than these limits on a case by case basis if the licensee shows that the recommendations of ITU-R F.1509 have been met.
2. The ACA will not authorise any increase in maximum true mean power if this might cause interference to other radiocommunications services.]
Schedule 1 Amendments
[17] Schedule 5, Licence Schedule 4, clause 8
substitute
8. If:
(a) interference occurs between a radiocommunications device operated under this licence and a radiocommunications device operated under any other spectrum licence or any other licence that is located within 200 metres of the first device and measured with respect to the location of the phase centre of the antenna used with each device; and
(b) that interference is not the result of operation of a radiocommunications device in a manner that does not comply with the conditions of the relevant licence; and
(c) either the licensee or the holder (or third party authorisee) of the other licence wishes to resolve the interference;
the licensee must take reasonable steps to negotiate arrangements reasonably likely to reduce the interference to acceptable levels with:
(d) the holder of the other licence; or
(e) if a site manager is responsible for managing interference at that location, that site manager.
