5 Interpretation
      In this Determination, unless the contrary intention appears:

      AAS means an 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.

            Note: AAS stands for active antenna system.
      Act means the Radiocommunications Act 1992.
      antenna port means an input connector for an antenna system.
      fixed transmitter means a radiocommunications transmitter located at a fixed point on land or sea and not designed or intended for use while in motion.
      HCIS identifier means an identifier used to describe a geographic area in the HCIS.
      Hierarchical Cell Identification Scheme or HCIS means the cell grouping hierarchy scheme used to describe geographic areas in the Australian Spectrum Map Grid 2012 published by the ACMA.

      Note:  The Australian Spectrum Map Grid 2012 is available, free of charge, from the ACMA's website: www.acma.gov.au.
      inner-footprint area means an area specified in Schedule 2.
      ITU Radio Regulations means the Radio Regulations published by the International Telecommunication Union.
