The purpose of this Decision is to harmonise the technical conditions for the availability and efficient use of the 2 010-2 025 MHz frequency band for video PMSE on a non-exclusive basis.
For the purposes of this Decision, video PMSE means wireless video links that can be portable or mobile and cordless cameras, used for programme making and special events.
As early as possible, and no later than six months after the date of notification of this Decision, Member States shall designate and make available the 2 010-2 025 MHz frequency band for video PMSE, on a non-exclusive basis, in accordance with the parameters set out in the annex. Upon detection of interference to other types of spectrum users or services that are entitled to use the 2 010-2 025 MHz frequency band at the date when this Decision takes effect, Member States may restrict the use of video PMSE in the relevant portion of the frequency band in specific geographic areas in accordance with the annex.
Member States shall keep the use of the 2 010-2 025 MHz frequency band under scrutiny and report their findings to the Commission, including any information on the amendment or withdrawal of rights of use, in order to allow a timely review of this Decision if necessary.
This Decision is addressed to the Member States.
ANNEX PARAMETERS REFERRED TO IN ARTICLE 3 For the purpose of this Annex, e.i.r.p. means equivalent isotropically radiated power, which is the product of the power supplied to the antenna and the antenna gain in a given direction relative to an isotropic antenna (absolute or isotropic gain). e.i.r.p. for video PMSE Type of Link e.i.r.p. Cordless camera – 7 dBW Portable video link 16 dBW Mobile video link 10 dBW Access to spectrum may be predominantly authorised under local arrangements. Those local arrangements may be configured to take account of such factors as the location where spectrum is used as well as the technical characteristics of the use of spectrum for video PMSE, or for incumbent services. Member States may adapt the e.i.r.p limits for video PMSE set in the table if local circumstances in the relevant Member State and in neighbouring Member States allow for higher limits without compromising the coexistence of existing services.
