- Planned/non-planned bands
Some bands are covered by what is known as a plan; others are accessible on a first-come-first-served basis.
- Planned bands
In the so-called planned bands, access to the spectrum is guaranteed by a priori planning (allotment plan, channelling arrangement,...), normally carried out at a world or regional planning conference. Each administration (country) submits its requirements, technical bases for the plan are established at the conference and a plan is drawn up to "share out" the available spectrum. Procedures are established for the introduction of new assignments or modification of existing ones, contained in an Agreement in conjunction with the Plan. The advantage of this system is that it guarantees equitable access to the spectrum: each country receives an entry to use as and when it is necessary. The drawback is its rigidity, valuable spectrum is tied down, even if it is not in use. "

268. In July 2002, the Ministry filed applications with the ITU for satellites known as "NZLSAT1-4" at 158_East, covering four frequency bands outside New Zealand's current satellite allotments, which may be used for a range of broadcasting and telecommunications services. In combination, the NZLSAT filings and the Fixed Satellite Services (FSS) and BSS allotments in the planned bands to some extent "reserve" the 158_East orbital position for New Zealand, as any person who subsequently proposes an incompatible satellite must seek to co-ordinate with these filings and allotments."

Are existing, but under-utilized, "planned bands" being considered for use in establishing the GBSI?
The 2003 ITU World Radiocommunication Conference (WRC-03) and the 2003 ITU Radiocommunication Assembly (RA-03) have considered this issue, and the resources in the planned bands were not excluded."

Band (radio)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A band is a small section of the spectrum of radio communication frequencies, in which channels are usually used or set aside for the same purpose.
( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Band_(radio) )


band - opseg, dijapazon, zona, polje, oblast
broadcast band - radio-difuzni opseg
frequency band - frekventni opseg, širina frekventne zone
