Table of Rwandan Frequency Allocations
___________________________________________________________________
5.446A
The use of the bands 5 150-5 350 MHz and 5 470-5 725 MHz by the stations in the
mobile, except aeronautical mobile, service shall be in accordance with Resolution 229
(WRC-12). (WRC-12)
5.446B
In the band 5 150-5 250 MHz, stations in the mobile service shall not claim protection
from earth stations in the fixed-satellite service. No. 5.43A does not apply to the mobile service with
respect to fixed-satellite service earth stations. (WRC-03)
5.447A
The allocation to the fixed-satellite service (Earth-to-space) is limited to feeder links of
non-geostationary-satellite systems in the mobile-satellite service and is subject to coordination under
No. 9.11A.
5.447B
Additional allocation: the band 5 150-5 216 MHz is also allocated to the fixed-satellite
service (space-to-Earth) on a primary basis. This allocation is limited to feeder links of nongeostationary-satellite systems in the mobile-satellite service and is subject to provisions of
No. 9.11A. The power flux-density at the Earth’s surface produced by space stations of the fixedsatellite service operating in the space-to-Earth direction in the band 5 150-5 216 MHz shall in no
2
case exceed –164 dB(W/m ) in any 4 kHz band for all angles of arrival.
5.447C
Administrations responsible for fixed-satellite service networks in the band 5 150-5 250
MHz operated under Nos. 5.447A and 5.447B shall coordinate on an equal basis in accordance with
No. 9.11A with administrations responsible for non-geostationary-satellite networks operated under
No. 5.446 and brought into use prior to 17 November 1995. Satellite networks operated under No.
5.446 brought into use after 17 November 1995 shall not claim protection from, and shall not cause
harmful interference to, stations of the fixed-satellite service operated under Nos. 5.447A and 5.447B.
5.447D
The allocation of the band 5 250-5 255 MHz to the space research service on a primary
basis is limited to active spaceborne sensors. Other uses of the band by the space research service
are on a secondary basis. (WRC-97)
5.447F
In the band 5 250-5 350 MHz, stations in the mobile service shall not claim protection
from the radiolocation service, the Earth exploration-satellite service (active) and the space research
service (active). These services shall not impose on the mobile service more stringent protection
criteria, based on system characteristics and interference criteria, than those stated in
Recommendations ITU-R M.1638 and ITU-R RS.1632. (WRC-03)
5.448A
The Earth exploration-satellite (active) and space research (active) services in the
frequency band 5 250-5 350 MHz shall not claim protection from the radiolocation service. No. 5.43A
does not apply. (WRC-03)
5.448B
The Earth exploration-satellite service (active) operating in the band 5 350-5 570 MHz
and space research service (active) operating in the band 5 460-5 570 MHz shall not cause harmful
interference to the aeronautical radionavigation service in the band 5 350-5 460 MHz, the
radionavigation service in the band 5 460-5 470 MHz and the maritime radionavigation service in the
band 5 470-5 570 MHz. (WRC-03)
5.448C
The space research service (active) operating in the band 5 350-5 460 MHz shall not
cause harmful interference to nor claim protection from other services to which this band is
allocated. (WRC-03)
5.448D
In the frequency band 5 350-5 470 MHz, stations in the radiolocation service shall not
cause harmful interference to, nor claim protection from, radar systems in the aeronautical
radionavigation service operating in accordance with No. 5.449. (WRC-03)
5.449
The use of the band 5 350-5 470 MHz by the aeronautical radionavigation service is
limited to airborne radars and associated airborne beacons.
5.450A
In the band 5 470-5 725 MHz, stations in the mobile service shall not claim protection
from radiodetermination services. Radiodetermination services shall not impose on the mobile service
more stringent protection criteria, based on system characteristics and interference criteria, than
those stated in Recommendation ITU-R M.1638. (WRC-03)
