4 1. Introduction is a Member Administration of the International Telecommunications Union (ITU). It is a signatory to the final acts of radio conferences held by the ITU and subsequently a signatory to the International Radio Regulations. The International Radio Regulations have the status of a United Nations treaty and are the set of international legal documents within which international spectrum management is performed. The legal instruments under which national spectrum management is performed are the Radiocommunications Act 1989, and pursuant to this Act the Radiocommunications Regulations These legal instruments contain the tools that the Ministry of Economic Development (MED) uses to manage the radio spectrum resource. The MED uses a number of methods for licensing transmissions. They are Management Rights, Spectrum Licenses, Radio Licenses, General User Licenses and licence exemptions. An overview of the administrative Radio Licensing regime can be found on the Radio Spectrum Management (RSM) website at Further information pertaining to Management Rights and Spectrum Licenses (including the auctioning process) is contained in Public Information Brochure (PIB) 28: "Radio Spectrum Auctions. Radio frequency energy can be generated intentionally or unintentionally by electrical devices. Unintentional radiators and intentional radiators that utilise RF energy for purposes other than communications are not licensed within the strategic framework mentioned above. However, such devices may cause interference to the reception of intentional radiation, and thus an additional framework is necessary to minimise the possibility of interference, or to ensure the Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) of all electronic (including radiocommunication) products. Details of 's EMC framework can be found on the RSM website. A recognised technique for managing the radio spectrum to minimise interference is by frequency division; that is by dividing the radio spectrum into arbitrary blocks by frequency. This improves the efficiency by placing technically compatible transmissions in adjoining spectrum. These blocks are then allocated to a particular radio service e.g. Broadcasting, Fixed or Mobile services. A tabular form of this division is the essence of the table of frequency allocations. The table in section 2 indicates significant, but not necessarily exclusive, existing usage within of a range of frequencies (ie "bands") by various radio services. It is based on the International Radio Regulations Article 5, section IV, "Table of Frequency s" - particularly where international co-ordination is important such as in the aeronautical, maritime, satellite, navigation, space research, astronomy and amateur services. It should be noted, however, that where spectrum in is the subject of privately owned Management Rights, the rightholder determines the highest value use of the spectrum. This document is intended for use by persons of all levels of expertise from persons with a general interest in radio usage and allocation through to the professional radio engineer. It is expected to be used as a resource document for developing policies, recommendations and decisions pertaining to radio spectrum Page 2

A less detailed overview of the NZ table of radio spectrum allocations is given in the chart Radio Spectrum s in, available at the RSM website. 1.1 Consistency of Information and Disclaimer The information provided in this Ministry of Economic Development publication is intended to provide general information to the public and every effort has been taken to ensure that the information contained herein is accurate.

6 2. The Table of s 2.1 How to use the Table The Table of s has been designed to be used in both electronic and printed formats. The table is divided into 5 columns, and generally is to be read from left to right. The first two columns are reproduced from Article 5 of the International Radio Regulations. ITU footnotes, relevant to ITU Region 3, to which belongs, are annexed at the end of this document Summary of Usage Frequency References and The first column indicates the frequency range that entries in the other columns relate to. The second column shows the International Radio Regulations Region 3 radio service allocations, with reference to associated footnotes that are included in section 2.4 of this document. The third column of the table shows the specific allocation(s) adopted from the ITU Region 3 allocations. The fourth column summarises the service usage in and may include more specific information related to the allocation. The fifth column lists any relevant references, standards, licensing arrangements or policies that pertain to use of the associated band in. The Ministry publishes, amongst other documents; specifications pertaining to the minimum performance characteristics of radio equipment (RFS), public information brochures (PIBs) pertaining to the use of equipment and/or frequency bands, and operational policy documents (POLDOCs). These reference documents are available on the RSM website at Table entries with a shaded background indicate bands managed (either by the Crown or private band managers) under the Management Rights Regime.

7 2.2 Terminology and Nomenclature The following section is dedicated to explanations of the terminology, nomenclature and abbreviations used in this document Frequency Bands Article 2 section I of the International Radio Regulations states that the radio spectrum shall be subdivided into nine frequency bands, which shall be designated by progressive whole numbers in accordance with the following table: Band number Symbol s Frequency range (lower limit exclusive, upper limit inclusive) Band Description 4 VLF 3 to 30 khz Very Low Frequency 5 LF 30 to 300 khz Low Frequency 6 MF 300 to khz Medium Frequency 7 HF 3 to 30 MHz High Frequency 8 VHF 30 to 300 MHz Very High Frequency 9 UHF 300 to MHz Ultra High Frequency 10 SHF 3 to 30 GHz Super High Frequency 11 EHF 30 to 300 GHz Extra High Frequency to GHz Infrared NOTE 1: Band N (N = band number) extends from N Hz to 3 10 N Hz. NOTE 2: Prefix: k = kilo (10 3 ), M = mega (10 6 ), G = giga (10 9 ) Abbreviations and Acronyms The following table gives a list of the abbreviations and/or acronyms and associated meanings used in the NZ table of allocations (section 2.3): Abbreviation (OR) (R) AMPS Cospas-Sarsat DAMPS DECT DGPS DSC DTH EPIRB FWA GMDSS GPS GSM ILS IRR ISM ITU LMDS MLS MMDS MR # NDB(s) PCS PHS PRS RADAR RLAN SAR SRD(s) VSAT Meaning Off-route, used in conjunction with Aeronautical Mobile Service Route, used in conjunction with Aeronautical Mobile Service Advanced Mobile Phone System International Satellite System for Search and Rescue Digital Advanced Mobile Phone System Digital Enhanced Cordless Telecommunications Differential Global Positioning System used for correcting dithered GPS signals to improve accuracy Distress and Safety Calling Direct to Home (reception), used in conjunction with the Fixed Satellite Service Emergency Position Indicating Radio Beacon Fixed Wireless Access Global Maritime Distress and Safety System Global Positioning System Global System for Mobile communications Instrument Landing System International Radio Regulations Industry, Scientific, and Medical International Telecommunications Union Local Multipoint Distribution Service Microwave Landing System Multichannel Multipoint Distribution Service Management Right (the # signifies an integer identification number) Non-Directional Beacon(s) Personal Communications System Personal Handyphone System Personal Radio Service RAdio Detection And Ranging Radio Local Area Network Search and Rescue Short Device(s) Very Small Aperture Terminals Page 5

8 2.2.3 Primary and secondary services There are two classes of allocation shown in the following Table of s. Where the status of the allocation is Primary, the service to which it applies is printed in upper case characters in columns 2 and 3. Where the status of the allocation is Secondary, the service is printed in lower case characters in columns 2 and 3. The formal definitions from the IRR are as follows: ) Where a band is indicated as allocated to more than one service, either on a worldwide or Regional basis, such services are listed in the following order: 5.25 a) services the names of which are printed in capitals (example: ) are called primary services; 5.26 b) services the names of which are printed in normal characters (example: Mobile) are called secondary services (see Nos to 5.31) ) Additional remarks shall be printed in normal characters (example: except aeronautical mobile) ) Stations of a secondary service: 5.29 a) shall not cause harmful interference to stations of primary services to which frequencies are already assigned or to which frequencies may be assigned at a later date; 5.30 b) cannot claim protection from harmful interference from stations of a primary service to which frequencies are already assigned or may be assigned at a later date; 5.31 c) can claim protection, however, from harmful interference from stations of the same or other secondary service(s) to which frequencies may be assigned at a later date ) Where a band is indicated in a footnote of the Table as allocated to a service on a secondary basis in an area smaller than a Region, or in a particular country, this is a secondary service (see Nos to 5.31) ) Where a band is indicated in a footnote of the Table as allocated to a service on a primary basis, in an area smaller than a Region, or in a particular country, this is a primary service only in that area or country.
