 (1) In this instrument:
26 GHz band means the part of the spectrum from 25.1 GHz to 27.5 GHz.
Act means the Radiocommunications Act 1992.
active antenna system or AAS means a base station antenna system where the amplitude and/or phase between antenna elements is continually adjusted, resulting in an antenna pattern that varies in response to short term changes in the radio environment.
ASMG means the Australian Spectrum Map Grid 2012, published by the ACMA on its website at www.acma.gov.au.
Note: The ASMG can be accessed for free on the ACMA's website: www.acma.gov.au.
