power for specified elevation angles above the horizontal plane – 24.7 GHz to 27 GHz

Column 1                                         Column 2                                                                     Column 3
Elevation angle above the horizontal plane (el)  Radiated maximum true mean power towards the geostationary orbit (dBm EIRP)  Specified bandwidth
5 degrees ≤ el < 90 degrees                      60                                                                           200 MHz

        Operation in the 27 GHz to 27.5 GHz frequency range outside both inner-footprint and outer-footprint areas
        (5) The licensee of an area-wide licence must not operate a radiocommunications transmitter if:
 (a) the transmitter is connected to an antenna that has its highest gain directed above the horizontal plane when the antenna is not being electrically steered; or
 (b) the transmitter directs its antenna beam via electrical steering to an elevation angle above the horizontal plane; or
 (c) the transmitter operates with a radiated maximum true mean power, measured over the specified bandwidth and in the direction of the geostationary orbit, exceeding the limits set out in Table 2, where el is the angle above the horizontal plane at which the radiated maximum true mean power limit in Table 2 applies.
        (6) Subclause (5) only applies in relation to a radiocommunications transmitter that is:
 (a) not an indoor transmitter;
 (b) not an earth station;
 (c) operating within the frequency range 27 GHz–27.5 GHz; and
 (d) not located inside an inner-footprint area or outer-footprint area; and
 (e) operating with a total radiated power greater than 40 dBm/200 MHz.

        Operation in the 27 GHz to 27.5 GHz frequency range inside outer-footprint areas
        (7) The licensee of an area-wide licence must not operate a radiocommunications transmitter if:
 (a) the transmitter is connected to an antenna that has its highest gain directed above the horizontal plane when the antenna is not being electrically steered; or
 (b) the transmitter directs its antenna beam via electrical steering to an elevation angle above the horizontal plane; or
 (c) the transmitter operates with a radiated maximum true mean power, measured over the specified bandwidth and in the direction of the geostationary orbit, exceeding the limits set out in Table 3, where el is the angle above the horizontal plane at
