5  Definitions
 (1) In this instrument:
700 MHz band means the 700 MHz lower band and the 700 MHz upper band.
700 MHz lower band means the frequency band 703 MHz to 748 MHz.
700 MHz band receiver means a radiocommunications receiver operated under a 700 MHz band spectrum licence.
700 MHz band spectrum licence means a spectrum licence that authorises the operation of radiocommunications devices in the 700 MHz band.
700 MHz upper band means the frequency band 758 MHz to 803 MHz.
Act means the Radiocommunications Act 1992.
adjacent channel, in relation to a particular channel (the occupied channel), means a channel with a centre frequency offset on either side of the assigned channel frequency of the occupied channel by a specific frequency relation.
adjacent channel selectivity: see item 2 of Schedule 1.
adjacent spectrum licence, in relation to a spectrum licence, means another spectrum licence that has either a common frequency boundary or a common geographic boundary adjacent to that licence.
broadcasting service has the meaning given by section 6 of the Broadcasting Services Act 1992.
compatibility requirement: see Part 5 and Schedule 2.
emission buffer zone, in relation to a spectrum licence, means a zone along the frequency or geographic boundary specified in a spectrum licence where emission levels of radiocommunications transmitters are reduced to ensure that significant levels of emissions stay within the geographic area and frequencies of the licence.
fixed receiver means a radiocommunications receiver:
 (a) located at a fixed point on land or sea; and
 (b) not designed or intended for use while in motion.
fixed transmitter means a radiocommunications transmitter:
 (a) located at a fixed point on land or sea; and
 (b) not designed or intended for use while in motion.
in-band means:
 (a) for a radiocommunications device operated under a spectrum licence – the part of the spectrum within which the operation of radiocommunications devices is authorised under the licence; or
 (b) for a radiocommunications device operated under an apparatus licence that specifies a frequency band – the frequencies within the lower frequency limit and the upper frequency limit specified in the licence;
 (c) for a radiocommunications device operated under an apparatus licence that specifies a specific frequency and bandwidth – the frequencies within that bandwidth, when centred on the specific frequency.
intermodulation response rejection: see item 3 of Schedule 1.
mobile device means a radiocommunications device that is used:
 (a) while it is in motion on land, on water or in the air; or
 (b) in a stationary position at unspecified points on land, on water or in the air.
notional receiver performance level: see section 13.
out-of-band, for a radiocommunications device, means the frequencies that are not in-band frequencies
