1 1 Government of Samoa Office of the Regulator Private Bag, Apia, Samoa NATIONAL FREQUENCY ALLOCATION TABLE (This document is part of the National Spectrum Plan) Prepare by the Office of the Regulator

2 2 SAMOA NATIONAL FREQUENCY ALLOCATION Samoa is a member of the International Telecommunication Union (ITU). The International Telecommunications Union ("ITU"), a United Nations organisation, is responsible for regulating the international use of the spectrum. The ITU Radio Regulations, for example, contain the international frequency allocation table ("ITU Allocation Table"). This table is important in that it forms the global framework for international, regional and national spectrum planning. One of the key features of the ITU Allocation Table is that it sets out the frequency bands that have been allocated to services and divides the world into three distinctive regions. Samoa falls within the parameter of Region 3 in the ITU Allocation Table. The ITU has specific definitions for terms and services used in its Radio Regulations. These may be found in Article 1 of the ITU Radio Regulations. In most instances the corresponding definitions contained in the Spectrum Plan reflect the intent of the ITU definitions. PRELIMINARY INFORMATION 2.1 Definitions In the Spectrum Plan, unless the contrary intention appears, the following definitions apply: Act means Samoa Telecommunication Act 2005 administration means any Government department or service responsible for discharging the obligations undertaken in the Constitution of the International Telecommunication Union, in the Convention of the International Telecommunication Union and in the Administrative Regulations (CS 1002); aeronautical mobile-satellite service means a mobile-satellite service in which a mobile earth station is located on board an aircraft or a survival craft, a life boat or life craft; aeronautical mobile service means a mobile service between an aeronautical station and aircraft station, or between aircraft stations in which a survival craft station may participate or in which an emergency position indicating radio beacon may also participate on designated distress and emergency frequencies; aeronautical radionavigation service means a radionavigation service intended for the benefit and for the safe operation of aircraft; amateur radio service means a radio communications service in which a station is used for the purpose of self-training, intercommunication and technical investigations carried out by amateurs, that is, by duly authorized persons who are interested in radio technique solely with a personal aim and without any pecuniary interest; amateur-satellite service means a radio communications service using a space station on earth satellites for the same purposes as those of the amateur radio service;
