second radiocommunications device, means the three month period commencing on the day the spectrum licensee authorised to operate the device receives notification under subsection (9) about the second radiocommunications device.
       protection criterion means -102dBm/(5MHz) in any 5 MHz block of the 900 MHz base station receiver's channel, other than within the restricted segment.
       restricted segment means the part of the spectrum above 890 MHz and below 892.5 MHz
Note The ACMA is allocating spectrum licences in the 850/900 MHz band in a way that will allow the 850 MHz band to be downshifted by 1 MHz, making its upper boundary 889 MHz, before 17 June 2028. This is expected to partially alleviate coexistence problems between 850 MHz and 900 MHz services operating either side of 890 MHz. This instrument assumes the downshift has not occurred. More information about the ACMA's policy for the downshift can be found, free of charge, on the ACMA's website: www.acma.gov.au in the paper The ACMA's long-term strategy for the 803-960 MHz band decision paper.
       selectivity requirement: see subsection (12).
 (12) In this section, a 900 MHz base station receiver meets the selectivity requirement if the components of the receiver system (including the radio unit and external filters) have a combined filter response that provides at least 102 dB of attenuation for frequencies below 890 MHz.
