1800MHz band means the spectrum from 1805 MHz up to and including 1880 MHz.

1800 MHz band means the spectrum from 1805 MHz up to and including 1880 MHz.

2.1 GHz band means the spectrum from 2110 MHz up to and including 2170 MHz.

3.5 GHz band means the spectrum in the following frequency ranges:

(a) 3400 MHz–3475 MHz; and

(b) 3492.5 MHz–3542.5 MHz.

3.6 GHz band means the spectrum from 3575 MHz up to and including 3700 MHz.

ASMG means the Australian Spectrum Map Grid 2012, published by the ACMA and existing at the time this Part commences.

Note: The ASMG can be accessed on the ACMA website: www.acma.gov.au.

HCIS area for a licence, in relation to a licence that does not specify any HCIS blocks, means:

(a) if the licence specifies one or more HCIS cells that are within one Level 2 HCIS block – that HCIS block;

(b) if the licence specifies two or more HCIS cells, and there are two or more Level 2 HCIS blocks within which those cells are located – those HCIS blocks;

(c) if the licence does not specify any HCIS cells – each Level 2 HCIS block within which a transmitter authorised by the licence is located or permitted to be located.

Note: A PMTS Class B licence to which this Part applies will generally specify:

(a) the HCIS blocks, or HCIS cells, to which the licence relates; or

(b) where the licence relates to more than one HCIS block or cell, the list of all HCIS blocks or HCIS cells to which the licence relates.

Example for paragraph (b) of the definition:

If a PMTS Class B licence to which this Part applies specifies the HCIS cells BV4D7, BV4D8, BV4D9, BV4H1, BV4H2 and BV4H3, then the HCIS area for the licence comprises the two Level 2 HCIS blocks BV4D and BV4H.

HCIS block means a grouping of HCIS cells, identified by an HCIS identifier.

Note: In the ASMG, these blocks are identified by the terms HCIS Levels 2, 3 and 4.

HCIS cell means a five minute of arc square cell in the ASMG, identified by an HCIS identifier.

Note: In the ASMG, these cells are identified by the term HCIS Level 1.

HCIS identifier means a unique identifier used to describe a geographic area in the ASMG.

Level 2 HCIS block means an HCIS block that is identified as a Level 2 block in the ASMG.

population of an HCIS block means the population for the HCIS block listed in the Hierarchical Cell Identification Scheme (HCIS) - List of Population Data, published by the ACMA on its website and existing at the time the Radiocommunications (Transmitter Licence Tax) Amendment Determination 2022 (No.3) commenced.

Note: The Hierarchical Cell Identification Scheme (HCIS) - List of Population Data is available on the ACMA website: www.acma.gov.au. The document identifies HCIS cells and HCIS blocks using the HCIS identifiers. The population data is based on the population figures published by the Australian Bureau of Statistics in the 2021 Census of Population and Housing.
