Part 3 Spectrum licences to be issued

3.1 Purpose of this Part

This Part describes:

(a) the spectrum licences that will be issued in accordance with this Plan;

(b) some of the matters a licensee must take into account when operating radiocommunications devices under a spectrum licence issued in accordance with this Plan;

(d) other matters which a person should take into account when deciding whether to apply for a spectrum licence to be issued in accordance with this Plan.

Subject to the Act, the allocation determination and other relevant law, the ACMA will issue a spectrum licence to the person to whom it is allocated as soon as practicable after the person pays to the ACMA the balance of the winning price in accordance with Division 2 of Part 7 of the allocation determination or the full balance of the pre-determined price in accordance with section 5.5 of the allocation determination.

3.3 Duration of licences

(1) Licences issued to a person who has been allocated a lot or lots as a result of the auction or for a pre-determined price will start on the date set out in section 3.4 and will be for a fixed term with an expiry date of 17 June 2028.

(2) Where allocation occurs afterwards because of unallocated lots at the auction, the licence will be for a fixed term, with an expiry date of 17 June 2028, starting on a date to be specified by the ACMA.

3.4 Commencement of licences

(1) A licence issued to a person who has been allocated a lot in Category 1 as a result of the auction or for a pre-determined price will come into force on 30 May 2017.

(2) A licence issued to a person who has been allocated a lot in Category 2 or 3 as a result of the auction or for a pre-determined price will come into force on the day after payment of the balance of the winning price or full balance of the pre-determined price is made, as the case may be, or immediately upon issue if the relevant balance is zero.

3.5 Core licence conditions

(1) Section 66 of the Act requires spectrum licences to include the following core conditions:

(a) a condition specifying the part or parts of the spectrum in which operation of radiocommunications devices is authorised under the licence;

(b) a condition specifying the maximum permitted level of radio emission, in parts of the spectrum outside such a part, that may be caused by operation of radiocommunications devices under the licence;

(c) a condition specifying the area within which operation of radiocommunications devices is authorised under the licence; and

(d) a condition specifying the maximum permitted level of radio emission, outside that area, that may be caused by operation of radiocommunications devices under the licence.

(2) These conditions will be included in the spectrum licences issued in accordance with this Plan.

Note These core conditions may be varied by the ACMA, with the licensee’s agreement, under section 72 of the Act.

3.6 Determining core licence conditions

(1) For each spectrum licence issued to a person as a result of the auction or for a pre-determined price:

(a) the licence will be for the frequencies, or the aggregation of the frequencies, assigned to the lots allocated to the person in accordance with the allocation determination; and

(b) the geographic area of a licence will be the region described in Schedule 3 that is for the lots allocated to the person in accordance with the allocation determination.

(2) For spectrum licences mentioned in subsection 2.3 (3) of this Plan, the frequency bands and geographic areas of the licence will be determined by this Plan, unless varied.

Note The ACMA may make a separate instrument for the allocation of those licences. They may be allocated for a pre-determined price or by a second auction held under the allocation determination.

(3) The emission limits outside the area for all licences issued in accordance with this Plan will be calculated in accordance with Schedule 4.

(4) The emission limits outside the band for all licences issued in accordance with this Plan will be calculated in accordance with Schedule 5.

3.7 Other licence conditions

(1) Each spectrum licence will also include conditions about:

(a) payment of charges (section 67 of the Act);

(b) use by third parties (section 68 of the Act);

(d) residency (section 69A of the Act).

(2) Each spectrum licence issued as a result of the auction or for a pre-determined price will include a condition which will provide that where:

(a) a service is provided using the same parameters as a fixed licence listed in table 1 of Schedule 6 (a specified fixed service); and

(b) the specified fixed service uses frequencies wholly or partly within the 1800 MHz band; and

the licensee:

(d) must not operate any radiocommunications transmitters authorised under its licence in a manner that would be inconsistent with the protections afforded to those specified fixed services by Part 2 of the Radiocommunications Advisory Guidelines (Managing Interference from Spectrum Licensed Transmitters – 1800 MHz Band) 2012. Part 2 specifies the level of out-of-band and in-band protection to be afforded to the specified fixed services; and

(e) cannot claim protection from interference caused by such specified fixed services.

Note 1 The sample licence includes a version of this condition.

Note 2 By operation of section 153H of the Act all fixed licences authorising the operation of the radiocommunications devices listed in table 1 of Schedule 6 are cancelled at the end of the re-allocation period. The ACMA may, however, under subsection 153P (3) of the Act, issue apparatus licences that authorise the operation of the same services that were provided under the fixed licences after the end of the re-allocation period if it is satisfied that special circumstances of the particular case justify the issuing of the licence. If the ACMA does issue any such licences wholly or partly in the 1800 MHz band under subsection 153P (3), and those licences have the same parameters as the licences listed in table 1 of Schedule 6, the spectrum licensee will not be able to establish operation of, or use, any radiocommunications devices authorised by the spectrum licence in a manner that would cause interference to the operation of radiocommunications devices authorised by those fixed licences.

(3) Under section 71 of the Act, the ACMA may also include conditions about other matters as it thinks fit.

(4) Other conditions likely to be imposed are included in the sample spectrum licence at Schedule 7.

Note The ACMA may include conditions in a spectrum licence that are not included in the sample spectrum licence.

3.8 Registration of radiocommunications transmitters

(1) Each spectrum licence will include a condition that prohibits operation of a radiocommunications transmitter unless the requirements under Part 3.5 of the Act to have the transmitter registered have been met.

Note 1 Under subsection 145 (1) of the Act, the ACMA may refuse to include in the Register details of a radiocommunications transmitter that is proposed to be operated under a spectrum licence if the ACMA is satisfied that operation of the transmitter could cause an unacceptable level of interference to the operation of other radiocommunications devices under that or any other licence.

Note 2 Subsection 145 (4) of the Act states that the ACMA may determine, by written instrument, what are unacceptable levels of interference for the purposes of section 145 of the Act.

Note 3 The Radiocommunications (Unacceptable Levels of Interference — 1800 MHz Band) Determination 2012 sets out what are the unacceptable levels of interference for the purpose of registering radiocommunications devices to be operated under a licence issued in accordance with this Plan, and is to be used for the issue of certificates by accredited persons under subsection 145 (3) of the Act.

(2) Each spectrum licence will include a condition that states the following radiocommunications transmitters are exempt from registration:

(a) a mobile transmitter that operates in the 1800 MHz band with a radiated power of less than or equal to 39 dBm EIRP per occupied bandwidth;

(b) a fixed transmitter that operates in the 1800 MHz band with a radiated power always less than or equal to 33 dBm EIRP per occupied bandwidth.

3.9 Draft sample licence

Schedule 7 sets outa sample spectrum licence (sample spectrum licence) including conditions that may be included in each spectrum licence that is issued in a part of the spectrum referred to in the re‑allocation declaration.

Note The sample spectrum licence may not reflect the conditions included in a spectrum licence issued to a winning bidder.

3.10 Compatibility requirements

The advisory guidelines provide a means of coordinating services operating under spectrum licences with other services.

2) North Queensland (Cairns/Townsville)

3) Central Queensland (Mackay)

4) South Queensland (Maryborough)

5) Northern New South Wales (Grafton)

6) Western New South Wales (Dubbo)

7) Canberra (including south coast of New South Wales)

8) Southern New South Wales/Riverina (Albury)

9) Regional Victoria

10) Tasmania

11) Regional South Australia

12) Regional Western Australia

13) Adelaide.

The thirteen areas are described by the HCIS identifiers specified in table 1. Each region is described using the hierarchical cell identifier scheme (HCIS) in the Australian Spectrum Map Grid 2012 (ASMG). There are four levels to the HCIS corresponding to 3 degree, 1 degree, 15 minute and 5 minute cells of the ASMG.

The geographic area of a region can be determined by the aggregation of block areas referenced by HCIS identifiers used to describe it. Refer to the ASMG for a complete description of the naming convention referred to as the HCIS, as published by the ACMA.

Note The map of the regions is included for information only. The ACMA does not accept responsibility for the accuracy of that information. Potential participants in the allocation process should obtain their own advice and make their own inquiries into the pictorial representations of the regions.

Indicative Pictorial Representation

Figure 1 shows the shaded areas which correspond with the lots offered by way of a pictorial representation. Refer to the HCIS identifiers specified in table 1 of this Schedule for the HCIS description of the lots.

Schedule 5 Emission limits outside the band

(subsection 3.6 (4) and paragraph 4.6 (b))

1. Where a written agreement specifying the maximum permitted level of radio emission exists between:

(a) the licensee; and

(b) all the affected licensees of frequency-adjacent licences and area-adjacent licences;

the licensee must comply with that specified maximum permitted level of radio emission.

2. Where there is no written agreement for the purposes of paragraph 1 in force, the licensee must comply with paragraphs 3 to 9.

Non spurious emission limits

3. (1) Subject to sub-paragraph 3(2), the licensee must ensure that radiocommunications devices operated under the licence do not exceed the non spurious emission limits in paragraphs 4 and 5.

(2) For any frequency where an emission limit described in paragraph 6 is less than an emission limit described in paragraphs 4 or 5, the emission limit in paragraph 6 applies instead of the emission limits in paragraphs 4 and 5.

4. The non spurious emission limits in table 1 apply:

(a) at frequencies outside the 1710 – 1785 MHz and 1805 – 1880 MHz frequency bands; and

(b) offset from 1785 MHz, 1805 MHz and 1880 MHz;

where:

foffset: is the frequency offset from the 1785 MHz, 1805 MHz and 1880 MHz band edges. The -3dB point of the specified bandwidth closest to the band edge being frequency offset from, is placed at foffset.

Table 1: Radiated maximum true mean power non spurious emission limits

Frequency offset range	Radiated maximum true mean power (dBm EIRP)	Specified bandwidth
0 Hz ≤ foffset < 200 kHz	2	30 kHz
200 kHz ≤ foffset < 900 kHz		30 kHz
900 kHz ≤ foffset < 5.6 MHz	-8.5	30 kHz
foffset ≥ 5.6 MHz	-18.5	30 kHz

5. The non spurious emission limits in tables 2a and 2b apply:

(a) at frequencies outside the 1710 – 1785 MHz frequency band; and

(b) offset from 1710 MHz;

where:

foffset: is the frequency offset from the 1710 MHz band edge. The -3dB point of the specified bandwidth closest to the band edge being frequency offset from, is placed at foffset.

6. The non spurious emission limits in table 3 apply:

(a) at frequencies outside the upper or lower frequency limits of the frequency band in which the licence authorises the operation of radiocommunications devices; and

(b) offset from the upper or lower frequency limits of the frequency band in which the licence authorises the operation of radiocommunications devices;

(b) the specified fixed service uses frequencies wholly or partly within the 1800 MHz band; and

the licensee:

(d) must not operate any radiocommunications transmitters authorised under the spectrum licence in a manner that would be inconsistent with the protections afforded to those specified fixed services by Part 2 of the Radiocommunications Advisory Guidelines (Managing Interference from Spectrum Licensed Transmitters – 1800 MHz Band) 2012. Part 2 specifies the level of out-of-band and in-band protection to be afforded to the specified fixed services; and

(e) cannot claim protection from interference caused by such specified fixed services.

Note By operation of section 153H of the Act all fixed licences authorising the operation of the radiocommunications devices listed in table 1 of Schedule 6 are cancelled at the end of the re-allocation period. The ACMA may, however, under subsection 153P(3) of the Act, issue apparatus licences that authorise the operation of the same services that were provided under the fixed licences after the end of the re-allocation period if it is satisfied that special circumstances of the particular case justify the issuing of the licence. If the ACMA does issue any such licences wholly or partly in the 1800 MHz band under subsection 153P(3), and those licences have the same parameters as the licences listed in table 1 of Schedule 6, the spectrum licensee will not be able to establish operation of, or use, any radiocommunications devices authorised by the spectrum licence in a manner that would cause interference to the operation of radiocommunications devices authorised by those fixed licences.

Licence Schedule 5 Licence notes

Variation to licence conditions

1. The ACMA may, with the written agreement of the licensee, vary this licence by including one or more further conditions, or by revoking or varying any conditions of this licence, provided that the conditions, as varied, still comply with the requirements of Subdivision C of Division 1 of Part 3.2 of the Act.

2. The ACMA may, by written notice given to the licensee, vary this licence by including one or more further conditions (other than core conditions), or by revoking or varying any conditions (other than core conditions) of the licence, provided that the conditions as varied still comply with the requirements of Subdivision C of Division 1 of Part 3.2 of the Act.

Determination of unacceptable interference

3. The ACMA has made the Radiocommunications (Unacceptable Levels of Interference – 1800 MHz Band) Determination 2012 under subsection 145(4) of the Act that sets out the unacceptable levels of interference for the purpose of registering radiocommunications transmitters to be operated under this licence, and which is to be used for the issuing of certificates by accredited persons under subsection 145(3) of the Act.

Advisory guidelines

4. The ACMA has issued written radiocommunications advisory guidelines under section 262 of the Act about:

(a) co-ordinating the operation of radiocommunications transmitters under this licence with radiocommunications receivers operated under other licences:

Radiocommunications Advisory Guidelines (Managing Interference from Spectrum Licensed Transmitters – 1800 MHz Band) 2012;

(b) co-ordinating the operation of radiocommunications receivers operated under this licence with radiocommunications transmitters operated under other licences:

Radiocommunications Advisory Guidelines (Managing Interference to Spectrum Licensed Receivers – 1800 MHz Band) 2012; and

(c) co-ordinating the operation of high sited radiocommunications transmitters operated under this licence with radiocommunications receivers in the 1800 MHz lower band (1710 MHz – 1785 MHz) operated under other licences:

Radiocommunications Advisory Guidelines (Additional Device Boundary Criteria – 1800 MHz Lower Band) 2012.

5. The advisory guidelines should be read in conjunction with the Radiocommunications (Unacceptable Levels of Interference – 1800 MHz Band) Determination 2012 (see Licence Note 3). Licensees (and accredited persons) should follow the advisory guidelines before operating radiocommunications transmitters under this licence. The ACMA will consider these guidelines during the settlement of interference disputes. Each case will be assessed on its merits. Copies of the guidelines are available from www.comlaw.gov.au and the ACMA.

Suspension and cancellation of spectrum licences

6. The ACMA may by written notice given to a licensee, suspend or cancel a spectrum licence in accordance with Division 3 of Part 3.2 of the Act.

Re-issue of spectrum licences

7. A spectrum licence will not be re-issued to the same licensee without a price based allocation procedure unless:

(a) the ACMA is satisfied under subsection 82(1) of the Act that special circumstances exist as a result of which it would in the public interest for that licensee to continue to hold that licence; or

(b) the licence was used to provide a service of a kind determined by the Minister under subsection 82(3) of the Act for which re-issuing licences to the same licensees would be in the public interest.

Trading

8. (1) A licensee may assign or otherwise deal with the whole or any part of a spectrum licence provided that this is done in accordance with any rules determined by the ACMA under section 88 of the Act.

(2) An assignment under section 85 of the Act of the whole or any part of a licence that involves any change to a licence does not take effect until the Register in respect of spectrum licences has been amended to take it into account.

Appeals

9. An application may be made to the ACMA for reconsideration of a decision of a kind listed in section 285 of the Act. A person affected by and dissatisfied with an ACMA decision may seek a reconsideration of the decision by the ACMA under subsection 288(1) of the Act. This decision can be subject to further review by the Administrative Appeals Tribunal, subject to the provisions of the Administrative Appeals Tribunal Act 1975.
