Electronic Communications Act, 2005 (Act No. 36 of 2005)ICASANotice regarding Final Radio Frequency Assignment Plans for the Frequency Band 1518 to 1525 MHz in terms of Regulation 3 of the Radio Frequency Spectrum Regulations, 20155. Requirements for usage of radio frequency spectrum |
| 5.1 | This chapter covers the minimum key characteristics considered necessary in order to make the best use of the available frequencies. |
| 5.2 | The use of the band is limited to Fixed, Mobile, and Mobile-Satellite services. They include Single frequency (SF) links and IMT satellite services. |
| 5.3 | Only systems using digital technologies that promote spectral efficiency will be issued with an assignment. Capacity enhancing digital techniques are being rapidly developed, and such techniques that promote efficient use of spectrum without reducing quality of service are encouraged. |
| 5.4 | In some cases, a radio system conforming to the requirements of this RFSAP may require modifications if harmful interference is caused to other radio stations or systems. |
| 5.5 | The allocation of spectrum and shared services within these bands are found in the National Radio Frequency Plan (NRFP), and an extract of the NRFP is shown in Appendix A. |
| 5.6 | Maximum radiated power is specified through the type approval process for the equipment used. |
| 5.7 | In some cases, a radio system conforming to the requirements of this RFSAP may require modifications if major interference is caused to other radio stations or systems. |
| 5.8 | ICNIRP Guideline compliance is required, where applicable; |
| 5.9 | Criteria and guidelines for interference mitigation are described in Appendix D; and |
| 5.10 | Whenever possible, the operators / spectrum users are encouraged to share the spectrum. |
