5 STAATSKOERANT, 22 JULIE 2008 No LEGISLATIVE FRAMEWORK The aim of the Electronic Communications Act No. 36 of 2005 (the Act); is to promote convergence in the telecommunications, broadcasting and broadcasting signal distribution sectors and to provide the legal framework for convergence of these sectors; to make new provisions for the regulation of electronic communications services, electronic communications network services and broadcasting services; to provide the granting of new licenses and new social obligations; to provide for the control of the radio frequency spectrum; to provide for the continued existence of the Universal Service Agency and the Universal Service Fund; and to provide for matters incidental thereto. In carrying out its functions under the Act and the related legislation, the Authority controls, plans, administers and manages the use and licensing of the radio frequency spectrum as prescribed by the Act. No person may transmit any signal by radio or use radio apparatus to receive any signal by radio except under and in accordance with a radio frequency spectrum license granted by the Authority to such person in terms of this Act. A radio frequency spectrum license is required in addition to any service license contemplated in Chapter 3 of the Act, where the use of such service entails the use of radio frequency spectrum. The Authority may, taking into account the objects of the Act, prescribe procedures and criteria for awarding radio frequency spectrum licenses for competing applications or instances where there is insufficient spectrum available to accommodate demand. No person may use, supply, sell, offer for sale or lease or hire any type of electronic communications equipment or electronic communications facility, including radio apparatus, used or to be used in connection with the provision of electronic communications, unless such equipment, electronic communications facility or radio apparatus has been approved by the Authority. The Authority may, subject to provisions of the Standard Act, 1993 (Act No. 29 of 1993), prescribe standards for the performance and operation of any equipment or electronic communications facility, including radio apparatus. The Authority licenses radio frequency spectrum in accordance with the provisions of the Act. The normal procedure for applying for spectrum and all other related information can be found on the Authority's website by logging on to In terms of Section 34 of the Act, the Authority is mandated to prepare the National Radio Frequency Plan. The Authority will continuously give due regard, as mandated by the Act, to the radio frequency spectrum allocated by the Minister for the exclusive use of the security services, taking into account the 2

6 8 No GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 22 JULY 2008 government's current and planned use of radio frequency spectrum, including but not limited to, civil aviation, aeronautical services and scientific research. The information contained in this document is made available by the Independent Communications Authority of South Africa (ICASA) on the understanding that it is for information and enforcement purposes. It is not intended to form the basis of any investment decisions and should not be considered as a recommendation by the Authority to participate in any tender for the allocation of radio spectrum. Recipients of this document in any format should consult their own professional financial, legal or other advice in order to make an independent assessment of the potential value of any allocation of radio spectrum by what ever means applicable.

7 STAATSKOERANT, 22 JULIE 2008 No BACKGROUND TO THE SOUTH AFRICAN TABLE OF ALLOCATIONS There have been tremendous developments in the Information Communications Telecommunications (ICT) Sector of the Republic of South Africa since the last publication of the in These developments include the repealing of the Telecommunications Act (Act No. 103 of 1996) and the introduction of the Electronic Communications Act (ECA) (Act No. 36 of 2005). Further, the pattern of radio use is not static. It is continuously evolving to reflect many changes that are taking place in the radio environment; particularly in the field of technology. Spectrum allocations must reflect these changes and the position set out in this plan is therefore subject to continuous review. This publication of the Revised is part of the programme to extend and update information being made available to the public and is aimed at current users, potential users and investors in Electronic Communication sector in the Republic of South Africa. It outlines the types of Radiocommunication services permitted in each frequency band together with some notes on future developments. It takes into account International, Regional and bilateral agreements on Radio Spectrum entered into, up to the end of World Radiocommunications Conference This revision covers the following: The extension of the table to cover the range 9 khz to 1000 GHz. Previously the range was 20 to 70 GHz. The alignment of the tenor of the table with the Act and related legislation. The update of the -table with changes made by WRC 97, WRC 2000, WRC03, and WRC-07. In particular, national footnotes regarding IMT have been added. Allocation of spectrum that was previously reserved. Making spectrum available for new technologies and services. Increasing the amount of spectrum available for Mobile services and aligning land mobile sub-bands in the VHF with the rest of ITU Region 1. Alignment with ITU Radio Region 1 For the purposes of allocating frequencies, the ITU has divided the world into three Regions as shown on the following map;

8 10 No GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 22 JULY 2008 The Republic of South Africa falls under ITU Region 1 and thus aligns its frequency allocations with those specified for ITU Region 1 in the ITU Radio Regulations as required by the ECA.

9 STAATSKOERANT, 22 JULIE 2008 No THE STRUCTURE OF THE SOUTH AFRICA TABLE OF ALLOCATIONS The Table lists all the allocations in the radio frequency spectrum in the Republic of South Africa. It covers the frequency range 9 khz to 1000 GHz. For each frequency range, it lists types of Radiocommunications services that are permitted. Column 1 - ITU Region 1 The ITU Radio Regulations divides the spectrum into frequency bands with the allocation of primary and secondary services. Services with the names printed in "capitals" (example: ) are "primary" services; and those with the names printed in "normal characters" (example: Mobile) are "secondary" services. The frequency band referred to in each allocation is indicated in the left hand top corner of the part of the Table concerned. The order of listing does not indicate relative priority within each category. The ITU-R footnote references which appear in the Table below the allocated service or services apply to more than one of the allocated services, or to the whole of the allocation concerned. The ITU-R footnote references which appear to the right of the name of a service are applicable only to that particular service. Secondary services are on a non-interference basis (NIB) to the primary services. Stations of a secondary service: i. ii. iii. 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; 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; can claim protection, however, from harmful interference from stations of the secondary service(s) to which frequencies may be assigned at a later date. Column 2 - South African (SA) This column indicates the range of frequencies associated with the main allocations, once again divided into Primary and Secondary Services. This column contains only those services currently used in South Africa.

10 12 No GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 22 JULY 2008 Column 3 - Applications This column indicates frequency utilisation for existing or new systems relating to the South African allocations. It is not an all-inclusive list of applications, but serves as a quick reference of spectrum availability for servicelequipment applications. Column 4 - Notes and Comments This column indicates items such as the following: Government Gazette Notices pertinent to specific frequency bands, future requirements in specific bands, and ITU Recommendations, which require implementation. Frequencies Frequencies are expressed as follows: - in kilohertz (khz), up to and including khz; - in megahertz (), above 3, up to and including ; - in gigahertz (GHz), above 3 GHz, up to and including 300 GHz.

157 STAATSKOERANT, 22 JULIE 2008 No Fixed Links In the Republic of South Africa, fixed radio links are frequently used for various purposes within the telecommunications and broadcast networks, on either a permanent or temporary basis (exclusive or shared). Usually the justification for using a radio link instead of a wired or optical fibre link relates to active national regulations, policies, geography or economics. They are used to provide fixed communication links between stations in a network supporting a different service (e.g. such as mobile telephony), whereas such an application is known as 'infrastructure' or 'backhaul'. The fixed radio links applications are also frequently referred to as Fixed Wireless Systems (FWS), a term recently adopted by ITU-R SG 9. Relevant to all Radio Astronomy In making assignments to stations of other services to which the bands are allocated; the Republic of South Africa takes all practicable steps to protect the radio astronomy services from harmful interference. Emissions from space borne or airborne stations can be particularly serious sources of interference to the radio astronomy service (see Nos 4.5 and 4.6 and Article 29) (WRC-2000). ITU-R Footnote No refers. This portion of the spectrum is allocated to the amateur service on a secondary basis for use during disaster exercises and emergency situations. This is in addition to the existing exclusive amateur band , which retains its primary status. The additional spectrum is used for single frequency mobile applications. This sub-band is allocated to the amateur service on a secondary basis in order to undertake experimental work on propagation. The channels are used for civil defence purposes. The land mobile sub-bands within the VHF High band are now in line with the rest of ITU Region 1. A- 1

158 160 No GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 22 JlJLY 2008 NF and These frequency bands are allocated for use by alarm systems. Demand has continued to be primarily for single frequency systems. This band was allocated internationally at WARC 92 for the mobile satellite systems (MSS). The band is allocated for the Earth-to-space direction, and is extended up to The space-to-earth link is generally provided at either or , depending on the system. In South Africa the band (and the other relevant MSS bands also) is allocated to MSS. MSS cannot cause or claim interference from other stations in this band in accordance with ITU-R Footnote (WRC 03). NF (Electricity Load shedding and alarm systems) This band is no longer allocated to paging systems. Since there is a decline in the use of paging, the band is now allocated to load shedding and burglar alarm systems. The channels and are used for load shedding countrywide. Frequencies between and are currently unavailable for other uses up to a distance of 200 km inland from the coast. It is generally agreed that there should be scope for increased sharing of these frequencies compared with what is allowed at present which is sonobouy. T-DAB is temporarily allocated in order to allow field testing of Eureka 147 (the GE06 broadcast plan should be consulted) standard. The use of wireless microphones for services ancillary to Broadcasting (SAB) and services ancillary to programme (SAP) making will continue. Users of wireless microphones will have to approach the Authority for co-ordination and licensing. The term SAB covers the use of radio by established terrestrial broadcasters in the making of their programmes. The term SAP has been introduced to cover the use of radio by independent programme makers and other commercial non broadcast entities to support the activities carried out in the making of A-2 CONTINUES PAGE 262-PART 2

NF Within this frequency range the band paired with is allocated to fixed services. on a primary basis. This spectrum is potentially very useful for providing electronic communications services considering its excellent propagation conditions. The bands and are allocated to Alarm monitoring and tracking services This band has been designated for use by digital trunked mobile radio (CEPT TIR 22-05) for emergency services. The frequency bands paired with are allocated to Public Protection and Disaster Relief (PPDR) applications in line with the CEPT decision and ITU Resolution 646 (WRC-03). The frequency bands paired with are allocated to digital trunking systems. The frequency bands I are currently used by Government for a variety of fixed and mobile applications. The 2 x 3 immediately above this (i.e I ) is currently used for single frequency fixed links. This band will be used primarily for public safety and by locallregional authorities. The use of the band for fixed links will be minimised as far as possible, thus releasing additional spectrum for mobile use. The bands I will provide spectrum for local and regional authorities for mobile radio (primarily trunked). It is envisaged that the bands will be used primarily for digital trunked radio (the frequencies are within one of the bands designated for TETRA in Europe). A significant number of fixed links have been migrated out of the bands. This band is allocated to the amateur service in South Africa, as elsewhere in ITU Region 1. The sub-band , however, is also designated as an ISM band in Region 1, subject to the special authorisation of the administration A-3

160 STAATSKOERANT, 22 JULl E 2008 No concerned (see RR S5.138). It has effectively been treated as an ISM band in South Africa for a number of years. Furthermore, the regulation in terms of Section 30(9)(a) specifies the use of the band for low power devices on an unlicensed basis, subject to obligatory type approval. The consequence of this is that the amateur service may not claim protection from (in-band) emissions from ISM equipment operating in the band, nor can ISM equipment and low power devices claim protection from amateur users in the band. This band was used primarily for fixed links. The aim in the medium term is to use this band primarily for mobile services (PMR in particular). A 5 TWRX separation is to be used, in accordance with the European DSI. Repeater systems and a significant number of fixed links have been migrated out of this band. The band ( ) is allocated to fixed point-tomultipoint data services such as scanning telemetry and dual frequency alarm systems. The band ( ) is now allocated to the PMR446 service. The band ( ) is now used for simplex mobile systems. Note that ITU. RR 5.286AA, by which this band is identified for IMT implementation, does not apply to South Africa due to the band being used extensively for analogue land mobile radio and Government services. The Authority will undertake a separate consultative process to determine if South Africa position should stand post WRC-07. Note that ITU. RR 5.316A, by.which this band is allocated to mobile except aeronautical mobile on a primary basis, will be applicable to South Africa after the finalisation of the migration from analogue to digital terrestrial television, planned by 24 November The Authority through Government Gazette of the 31 October 2006, decided that assignments of non-broadcasting services in TV channels 65 ( ) and channel 66 ( ) will be on a secondary basis. Therefore, the non broadcasting services in the band will not be limited only to fixed services, but will also include mobile services, and the services other than broadcasting services will be introduced on the basis of article 4.4 of the ITU Radio Regulations. There will be no further assignments in the band A-4

161 164 No GOVERNMENT GAZETTE. 22 JULY 2008 until the migration to digital television has been completed. (24 November 201 1) This band is allocated on a shared basis between Wireless Access Service and mobile (primarily GSM and private mobile radio). There are a number of different WAS that could operate in this band, including systems based on TACS, GSM and CDMA. In South Africa; this band offers the possibility to use GSM-based PMR systems. The band might also be one in which TETRA-based equipment is available in the future. There may also be a possibility of WAS sharing these frequencies. Although the national railway operator does not foresee the future usage of GSM- R, there have been enquiries from other entities that see a possibility of GSM-R use in projects like the GAUTRAIN. The Authority has decided to allocate this band to digital trunking systems on national basis. This does not preclude the use of GSM-R in certain projects where it might be feasible. This band is allocated to extend GSM (E-GSM). Assignments have been made to mobile cellular operators. This is part of ITU Radio Region 2 ISM band (centre frequency 91 5 ). In South Africa this band is allocated as follows. Vehicle location systems in band on licensed basis. Band to is allocated to single fixed narrowband (25 khz channel spacing) passive tag RFlD systems with power output of the reader not exceeding 4W EIRP. Band to is allocated to passive RFlD systems employing Frequency Hopping Spread spectrum (FHSS) with 100 khz guard band on either side with channels 200 khz wide.

162 STAATSKOERANT, 22 JULIE 2008 No NF (digital audio broadcasting) This band has been allocated internationally for use for digital broadcasting (S- DAB and T-DAB). Draft ECC decision ECC/DEC/(03)AB is to implement the addition of seven T-DAB blocks, covering the range , as decided in June 2002 in Maastricht, in conjunction with the transfer of part of the Wiesbaden plan. The frequency band has been designated for use by satellite DAB systems according to draft decision ECC/DEC/(03)AB. The fixed links that were previously allocated to this band have been migrated to the (paired with ) and some have been migrated to frequencies above 3 GHz. These are the frequencies on which the GSM-1800 system operates (CEPT Recommendation T/R refers). Sharing of these frequencies by Wireless Access Services applications is also likely to be possible. This band was also identified for future IMT developments. This band is allocated to Wireless Access Services. No new fixed link assignments are being made within the band. The allocation of this band to Wireless Access Services is important to South Africa. NF 25 I and These bands are used worldwide for the implementation of third generation systems. The bands and are intended for the satellite component of IMT. There are satellite systems operational in these bands. The frequency bands , and are generally referred to as the terrestrial components of the IMT core bands. There are operators on this band currently. The Authority will no longer issue fixed links assignments on this band as this band has been reserved for the Satellite Component of IMT (WRC 07).

163 166 No GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 22 JULY and Channel arrangements for the use of these bands for fixed services are described in both ITU-R Recommendation F.1098 and CEPT Recommendation TIR These recommendations describe a channel plan in which the band is divided into dual-frequency channels with carrier spacing of 14 and a TxIRx separation of 175. Carrier spacing of 7, 3.5 and 1.75 are also possible by means of channel subdivision. This channel arrangement is adopted in these bands for fixed services, while a certain portion of the band could be used for Wireless Access Services. The sub-division of the band is as follows: I to be used for Fixed Links; I to be used for Fixed Links; to be used for WAS to be used for Fixed Links. South Africa supported identification of the band for future IMT development at WRC 07. The Authority will undertake a separate consultative process to determine the criteria to access this band The sub-band is allocated for mobile-satellite systems in the space-to-earth direction. The band is also allocated to ISM (Industrial, Scientific and Medical) equipment and has primary status over the other applications within the band. The use of this band by MMDS has been discontinued. Part of this band is allocated to Broadband Wireless Access services. The Authority undertook an enquiry to determine criteria to access this band. The results of this will be made available in due course in a separate process.

164 STAATSKOERANT, 22 JULIE 2008 No South Africa supported identification of the band for IMT developments at WRC 07. The Authority undertook an enquiry to determine criteria to access this band. The results of this will be made available in due course in a separate process. The band is used on a national basis for high capacity, core network telecommunication services under the fixed service using point to point (PTP) topologies over long hop lengths. The band , part of the C-band, is used extensively for FSS (space-to-earth) applications. This band is shared with FSS (space-to-earth) on a strictly co-ordinated basis. The decision of WRC-07 was that 200 of bandwidth in the sub-band GHz will be reserved for future development of IMT. However, South Africa does not support the use of GHz for IMT due to the fact that studies show that FS services are not compatible with IMT. The band is allocated to electronic news gathering (ENG)/ outside broadcasting (OB) services under the FS and will be shared with Government Services. The band is designated as an ISM band (S5.150). Industrial, Scientific and Medical Apparatus (ISM) equipment operating in this band shall observe International Special Committee on Radio Interference (CISPR) 11 and its amendments The band , part of the C-band, is used extensively for FSS (Earth-to-space) applications.

As far as it is possible users are encouraged to use the Ku-band for SNG operations in South Africa in order to avoid the interference problems associated with C-band SNG operations. The deployment of large earth station antennas (greater than 2.4 metres diameter) in the C-band should be concentrated in selected suitable sites, known as "Teleports", to allow coordination between the services. This approach would ensure interference control, efficient use of the spectrum, adherence to environmental ethics and increased reliability of the services.
