3 | Frequency band | A: 17.700 - 18.700 GHz B: 18.700 - 19.700 GHz | Assignments will be made in the frequency band segments: A2: 17.968125 - 18.208750 GHz B2: 18.978125 - 19.218750 GHz. |
4 | Channelling | 13.75 / 27.50 MHz. | Channel centre frequencies according to CEPT/ERC/REC 12-03, Annex A (27.50 MHz channelling), Subdivision of 27.50 MHz channels for 13.75 MHz channelling. |

BW: 13.75 / 27.50 MHz. | Definition of spectral efficiency classes: refer to EN 302 217-2, clause 4.1.1.3. Adaptive Modulation (ACM) is allowed. OBW with Class 4H (32-QAM): 13.75 MHz without ACM. OBW with Class 4H (32-QAM): 27.50 MHz with or without ACM. OBW with Class 5LB (64-QAM): 13.75 MHz without ACM. OBW with Class 5LB (64-QAM): 27.50 MHz with or without ACM. |

11 | Frequency planning assumptions | EN 302 217-2. Nominal RX input level = - 50 dBm. ATPC control range = min. 12 dB to max. 20 dB. | Conditions for the nominal RX input level: - Receiver input, point A in the system block diagram (EN 302 217-1), - RX input level tolerance: +1 to -10 dB, - ATPC set to min. TX output power in clear sky conditions (i.e. without rain fading). ===== ATPC power increases shall be triggered on the basis of propagation effects only. The ATPC system shall not remain at max. available power (EN 302 217-1, clause 3.1) for more than 15 consecutive minutes (ITU-R Rec. F.750). ===== Remote Transmit Power Control (RTPC) is considered to be an optional feature. ===== At first CCDP has to be used and then ACCP. ===== Limits of transmitter power spectral density: Refer to EN 302 217-2, clause 4.2.3.2, Figure 7. ===== Allowed Reference Mode for ACM: - 27.50 MHz channelling with 32-QAM or 64-QAM modulation. ===== Min. link distance = 5 km outside polygon ''Alpensüdseite''. Min. link distance = 3 km inside the polygon ''Alpensüdseite''. Polygon ''Alpensüdseite'' LV95 coordinates (CH1903+): 2721311/1072434; 2638386/1114490; 2680819/1156635; 2716723/1158677; 2782207/1137380. Site sharing radius = 400 m. ===== Class 3 antenna. Min. antenna gain = 36 dBi. Linear (horizontal or vertical) polarization. Antenna radiation pattern envelope (RPE) according to EN 302 217-4, Figure 17. OFCOM may impose tighter requirements than the minimum values given in EN 302 217-4 in order to maximize the use of the scarce spectrum resources (Class 4 antenna). |
