Reduction of interference
The discussion today will focus on the VHF Band (30300MHz) and the UHF
Band (3003000MHz)
The VHF Band is typically used for television and FM broadcast, line-of-sight
ground-to-aircraft and aircraft-to-aircraft communications, land mobile and
maritime mobile communications
It is a very detailed and very technical report some 28 pages long. A copy of
the report can be found at:

In May 2013, SATRC endorsed countries the adoption of the APT 700 MHz
frequency band plan (2 x 45 MHz), as included in the latest version of ITU-R
Recommendation M.1036-4 on IMT frequency arrangements.
The APT 700 MHz band plan aims to align and optimise the use of the freed
broadcast spectrum after the analogue switch off, allowing greater flexibility for
the deployment of mobile broadband services, using technologies such as 4G
In 2013, the 6th APT Policy and Regulation Forum for Pacific (PRFP) issued a
Policy Statement to align with the Asia Pacific Telecommunity 700 MHz (APT
700 MHz) Band Plan.
The PRFP noted that the frequency range below 1GHz is preferred for
deployment of cellular mobile systems due to its favourable propagation
characteristics. It is particularly suitable for rural or sparsely populated areas
where the cost constraints warrant installation of low cost infrastructure. The
propagation characteristic of the 700 MHz band enables larger cell size and
wider coverage due to lower foliage attenuation.
