This identification does not preclude the use of these bands by other fixed-satellite
service applications or by other services to which these bands are allocated on a co-primary basis
and does not establish priority in these Radio Regulations among users of the bands. Administrations
should take this into account when considering regulatory provisions in relation to these bands. See
Resolution 143 (WRC-03)8. (WRC-03)
5.517
In Region 2, use of the fixed-satellite (space-to-Earth) service in the band 17.7-17.8 GHz
shall not cause harmful interference to nor claim protection from assignments in the broadcastingsatellite service operating in conformity with the Radio Regulations. (WRC-07)
5.519
Additional allocation: the bands 18-18.3 GHz in Region 2 and 18.1-18.4 GHz in
Regions 1 and 3 are also allocated to the meteorological-satellite service (space-to-Earth) on a
primary basis. Their use is limited to geostationary satellites. (WRC-07)
5.520
The use of the band 18.1-18.4 GHz by the fixed-satellite service (Earth-to-space) is
limited to feeder links of geostationary-satellite systems in the broadcasting-satellite
service. (WRC-2000)
5.522A
The emissions of the fixed service and the fixed-satellite service in the band 18.6-18.8
GHz are limited to the values given in Nos. 21.5A and 21.16.2, respectively. (WRC-2000)
5.522B
The use of the band 18.6-18.8 GHz by the fixed-satellite service is limited to
geostationary systems and systems with an orbit of apogee greater than 20 000 km. (WRC-2000)
5.523A
The use of the bands 18.8-19.3 GHz (space-to-Earth) and 28.6-29.1 GHz (Earth-tospace) by geostationary and non-geostationary fixed-satellite service networks is subject to the
application of the provisions of No. 9.11A and No. 22.2 does not apply. Administrations having
geostationary-satellite networks under coordination prior to 18 November 1995 shall cooperate to the
maximum extent possible to coordinate pursuant to No. 9.11A with non-geostationary-satellite
networks for which notification information has been received by the Bureau prior to that date, with a
view to reaching results acceptable to all the parties concerned. Non-geostationary-satellite networks
shall not cause unacceptable interference to geostationary fixed-satellite service networks for which
complete Appendix 4 notification information is considered as having been received by the Bureau
prior to 18 November 1995. (WRC-97)
5.523B
The use of the band 19.3-19.6 GHz (Earth-to-space) by the fixed-satellite service is
limited to feeder links for non-geostationary-satellite systems in the mobile-satellite service. Such use
is subject to the application of the provisions of No. 9.11A, and No. 22.2 does not apply.
5.523C
No. 22.2 shall continue to apply in the bands 19.3-19.6 GHz and 29.1-29.4 GHz,
between feeder links of non-geostationary mobile-satellite service networks and those fixed-satellite
service networks for which complete Appendix 4 coordination information, or notification information,
is considered as having been received by the Bureau prior to 18 November 1995. (WRC-97)
5.523D
The use of the band 19.3-19.7 GHz (space-to-Earth) by geostationary fixed-satellite
service systems and by feeder links for non-geostationary-satellite systems in the mobile-satellite
