By determination of 27 June 2013, ANACOM has approved a draft decision to amend the National Table of Frequency Allocations (NTFA) - 2013 addendum.
The NTFA must be made public and kept up-to-date. As such, in accordance with its remit, ANACOM has undertaken a revision of the version currently in force and has found it necessary to make a number of changes, both as regards the availability of frequencies and as regards the conditions governing the use of said frequencies. These changes include:
- The availability of the 17.8-18.6 GHz and 18.8 19.3 GHz / 27.6 28.4 GHz and 28.6-29.1 GHz frequency bands for the fixed satellite services, allowing the operation of electronic communication services and networks (publicly available and non-publicly available);
- Bringing annex 4 of the NTFA - licence exempt uses - into line with Commission Decision 2006/771/EC of 8 December 2011 on the harmonisation of the radio spectrum for use by short-range devices, with amendments;
- Availability of 472-479 kHz frequency band for the amateur service and alteration of conditions governing access to the 50-52 MHz and 1270-1300 MHz bands (also for the amateur service);
- Availability of 5091 5150 GHz frequency band for the mobile aeronautic service, making provision for band applications.
