5  Definitions
 (1) In this instrument:
1800 MHz band means the 1800 MHz lower band and the 1800 MHz upper band.
1800 MHz lower band means the frequency band 1710 MHz to 1785 MHz.
1800 MHz receiver means a radiocommunications receiver operated under an 1800 MHz spectrum licence.
1800 MHz spectrum licence means a spectrum licence that authorises the operation of radiocommunications devices in the 1800 MHz band.
1800 MHz upper band means the frequency band 1805 MHz to 1880 MHz.
Act means the Radiocommunications Act 1992.
adjacent channel, in relation to another 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.
centre frequency, in relation to a radiocommunications transmitter, means the frequency midway between the lower and upper frequency limits of the transmitter's occupied bandwidth.
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 areas 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.
frequency adjacent spectrum licence, in relation to a spectrum licence (the first licence), means a spectrum licence that authorises the operation of radiocommunications devices in a part of the spectrum that is adjacent to the parts of the spectrum specified in a core condition of the first licence.
geographic area, for a spectrum licence, means the area within which operation of a radiocommunications device is authorised under the licence.
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
