3 Article 1: Terms The Plan The National Frequency Plan of The Kingdom Of Saudi Arabia The Commission Communications and Information Technology Commission Act The Telecommunication Act International Table International Frequency Allocation Table in the International Radio Regulation National Table International Footnotes Regulations (RR) National Frequency Allocation Table International Footnotes in the International Radio National Footnotes National Footnotes in the National Frequency Plan Services Wireless Radio Services according to The International Radio Regulations (RR) Article 2: Structure of the National Frequency Plan The Plan is prepared according to Article (12) item No. (1) of the Telecommunication Act issued by the Royal decree RQM/12 dated 12/3/1422H. The Plan consists of the following: 1. National Table 2. National Footnotes 3. Spectrum Reassignment Timeframe 1. Description of the National Table Part I of the Plan contains the National Table, which consists of the following four items: Frequency band: presents a list of consequential frequency bands. Services: Indicates services for which frequency bands are allocated and international footnotes numbers as in RR. User Category: refers to one or more Spectrum User Categories defined in item (3) of this Article. 3

4 Conditions: indicates national footnotes as stipulated in item (4) of this Article and any additional conditions for the use of these bands. 2 Categories of Services 2.1 Primary and Secondary services appear in the table as follows: a) Primary services are printed without square brackets. b) Secondary services are printed between square brackets. 2.2 Stations of a secondary service: 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. b) Can not 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. c) Can claim protection, however, from harmful interference from stations of the same category or other secondary service(s) to which frequencies may be assigned at a later date. 2.3 Primary and Secondary services category appears in the table as listed in alphabetical order according to RR. The order of listing does not indicate relative priority within each category. 2.4 In the case where there is a parenthetical addition to an allocation in the table between two practises, that service allocation is restricted to the type of operation as indicated in this additional part. 2.5 The international footnotes numbers 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. 2.6 The references to RR footnotes, which appear in front of the name of a service, are applicable only to that particular service. 2.7 Provisions of RR footnotes that are directly related to the KSA and concern additional and alternative allocations are transferred to distributions on the national frequency allocation table and the footnote number will be put in front of these distributions. 4

5 2.8 The aeronautical mobile service along air routs are identified by the letter (R), while the aeronautical mobile service outside air routes is identified by the letters (OR). 3 Spectrum User Categories 3.1 Civil category of spectrum users (CIV) includes users of all civil governmental entities, international organizations, enterprises (excluding those covered by Commercial category (COM)), all non-commercial organizations and entities, public societies and local communities, as well as all kinds of private users. Frequency bands allocated to civil category of spectrum users are marked in the NFP as (CIV). 3.2 Commercial category of spectrum users (COM) includes the recognized communication and ICT enterprises that are licensed to provide public telecommunication services in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Frequency bands allocated to Commercial category of spectrum users are marked in the NFP as (COM). 4 Footnotes 4.1 National footnotes, which are presented in Part II of the Plan, include conditions of the use of the allocated bands Kingdom wide. 4.2 International footnotes include conditions of use of the allocated bands internationally. 4.3 National and International Footnotes that are referenced in the Frequency Allocation Table are an integral part of the NFP. International footnotes are represented in the second item of the National Table while the national footnotes are represented in the fourth item of the National Table. Article 3: Implementation Rules of the Plan 1. All new frequency assignments have to be made entirely in accordance with the frequency bands allocation specified in the Plan and the spectrum user categories presented in the National Table. 2. All existing frequency assignments that do not conform to service allocations or user categories of these bands have to be reassigned on the basis 5

6 of Frequency Reassignment Timeframe Table. This period should not be more than five years after the enforcement date of the Plan. During this period, new applications can be introduced. 3. After the completion of deadline mentioned in the Frequency Reassignment Timeframe Table, all assignments that have to be reassigned will be cancelled. 4. For more efficient use of the frequency spectrum, spectrum users should not initiate new private wireless networks if their telecommunication needs can be met by other alternative means such as public telecommunication networks, cable or fiber-optics technologies. 5. All spectrum users shall bear the cost of modification or changing of equipment during reassignment activities. 6 New frequency assignments above 3 GHz for point-to-point fixed radio links are permitted only on an individual link by link basis and are not allowed on a city, regional, or Kingdom-wide basis. 7. Existing city, regional and Kingdom-wide frequency assignments at frequencies above 3 GHz for point-to-point fixed radio links shall be progressively reassigned individually for relevant radio stations. Article 4: Revision of the Plan CITC shall review and update the Plan periodically, taking into consideration the concerned parties in the Kingdom, based on new developments in the radio field and results of ITU World and Regional Radiocommunication Conferences. The revision period is not to exceed 5 years. Article 5: Date of Enforcement of the Plan The Plan has taken effect since 2/5/1429H. 6
