5.418C
Use of the band 2 630-2 655 MHz by geostationary-satellite networks for which complete
Appendix 4 coordination information, or notification information, has been received after 2 June 2000
is subject to the application of the provisions of No. 9.13 with respect to non-geostationary-satellite
systems in the broadcasting-satellite service (sound), pursuant to No. 5.418 and No. 22.2 does not
apply. (WRC-03)
5.419
When introducing systems of the mobile-satellite service in the band 2 670-2 690 MHz,
administrations shall take all necessary steps to protect the satellite systems operating in this band
prior to 3 March 1992. The coordination of mobile-satellite systems in the band shall be in accordance
with No. 9.11A. (WRC-07)
5.420
The band 2 655-2 670 MHz may also be used for the mobile-satellite (Earth-to-space),
except aeronautical mobile-satellite, service for operation limited to within national boundaries, subject
to agreement obtained under No. 9.21. The coordination under No. 9.11A applies. (WRC-07)
5.423
In the band 2 700-2 900 MHz, ground-based radars used for meteorological purposes
are authorized to operate on a basis of equality with stations of the aeronautical radionavigation
service.
5.424A
In the band 2 900-3 100 MHz, stations in the radiolocation service shall not cause
harmful interference to, nor claim protection from, radar systems in the radionavigation
service. (WRC-03)
5.425
In the band 2 900-3 100 MHz, the use of the shipborne interrogator-transponder (SIT)
system shall be confined to the sub-band 2 930 -2 950 MHz.
5.426
The use of the band 2 900-3 100 MHz by the aeronautical radionavigation service is
limited to ground-based radars.
5.427
In the bands 2 900-3 100 MHz and 9 300-9 500 MHz, the response from radar
transponders shall not be capable of being confused with the response from radar beacons (racons)
and shall not cause interference to ship or aeronautical radars in the radionavigation service, having
regard, however, to No. 4.9.
5.438
Use of the band 4 200-4 400 MHz by the aeronautical radionavigation service is reserved
exclusively for radio altimeters installed on board aircraft and for the associated transponders on the
ground. However, passive sensing in the Earth exploration-satellite and space research services may
be authorized in this band on a secondary basis (no protection is provided by the radio altimeters).
5.440
The standard frequency and time signal-satellite service may be authorized to use the
frequency 4 202 MHz for space-to-Earth transmissions and the frequency 6 427 MHz for Earth-tospace transmissions. Such transmissions shall be confined within the limits of ± 2 MHz of these
frequencies, subject to agreement obtained under No. 9.21.
5.441
The use of the bands 4 500-4 800 MHz (space-to-Earth), 6 725-7 025 MHz (Earth-tospace) by the fixed-satellite service shall be in accordance with the provisions of Appendix 30B. The
use of the bands 10.7-10.95 GHz (space-to-Earth), 11.2-11.45 GHz (space-to-Earth) and 12.7513.25 GHz (Earth-to-space) by geostationary-satellite systems in the fixed-satellite service shall be in
accordance with the provisions of Appendix 30B. The use of the bands 10.7-10.95 GHz (space-toEarth), 11.2-11.45 GHz (space-to-Earth) and 12.75-13.25 GHz (Earth-to-space) by a
non-geostationary-satellite system in the fixed-satellite service is subject to application of the
provisions of No. 9.12 for coordination with other non-geostationary-satellite systems in the fixedsatellite service. Non-geostationary-satellite systems in the fixed-satellite service shall not claim
protection from geostationary-satellite networks in the fixed-satellite service operating in accordance
with the Radio Regulations, irrespective of the dates of receipt by the Bureau of the complete
coordination or notification information, as appropriate, for the non-geostationary-satellite systems in
the fixed-satellite service and of the complete coordination or notification information, as appropriate,
for the geostationary-satellite networks, and No. 5.43A does not apply. Non-geostationary-satellite
systems in the fixed-satellite service in the above bands shall be operated in such a way that any
