34 Protection requirements
(1) A 3.4 GHz transmitter is not to be operated in the 3700 MHz to 3800 MHz frequency band if the operation of the transmitter is inconsistent with any requirement for an area-wide licence specified in RALI MS 47, in relation to coexistence with radio altimeters.
Note: RALI MS 47 is available, free of charge, from the ACMA’s website at www.acma.gov.au.
(2) For the purposes of this section, a reference in RALI MS 47 to: (a) non-exempt AWL tx transmitter is taken to be a reference to a 3.4 GHz transmitter that is required to be included in the Register, being operated, or proposed to be operated, in the 3700 MHz to 3800 MHz frequency band; and (b) AWL tx is taken to be a reference to a 3.4 GHz spectrum licence; and (c) clause 4 of Schedule 4 to the AWL LCD is taken to be a reference to this section.
Note: For the requirement of a 3.4 GHz transmitter to be included in the Register, see the licence condition included in the relevant 3.4 GHz spectrum licence in accordance with section 69 of the Act.
