        (a)                            coordinating the operation of radiocommunications transmitters under this licence with radiocommunications receivers operated under other licences: see the Radiocommunications Advisory Guidelines (Managing Interference from Spectrum Licensed Transmitters – 3.4 GHz Band) 2015;
        (b)             coordinating the operation of radiocommunications receivers operated under this licence with radiocommunications transmitters operated under other licences: see the Radiocommunications Advisory Guidelines (Managing Interference to Spectrum Licensed Receivers – 3.4 GHz Band) 2015.

         Note: The guidelines can be accessed, free of charge, on the Federal Register of Legislation at www.legislation.gov.au.

    6. The guidelines should be read in conjunction with the Radiocommunications (Unacceptable Levels of Interference — 3.4 GHz Band) Determination 2015 (see Licence Note 4). That determination sets out the unacceptable levels of interference for the purpose of registration of radiocommunications transmitters to be operated under this licence. The guidelines should be followed by licensees (and accredited persons) in the planning of services and the resolution of interference cases. The ACMA will consider these guidelines during the settlement of interference disputes. Each case will be assessed on its merits.
