Note:
*Bandwidth is the total occupied bandwidth including the guard bands.
1. For the purpose of calculating the apparatus assignment fees under this Schedule, the Commission shall take into account the following:
(a) the nature of the service and the type of apparatus as specified in Table A and the term of the apparatus assignment;
(b) the date the apparatus assignment is issued or the date requested by the applicant, whichever is the later;
(c) all fees may be pro-rated based on the period of use (for short term use, three months being the minimum term) or may be pro-rated to an expiry date;
[Am. P.U.(A) 277/2001]
(d) the total fees payable for an apparatus assignment is the fee calculated using the fixed fee plus the variable fees for an assignment. An apparatus assignment may have fixed fees charges for the existence of the apparatus only or plus the variable fees for the various frequencies and bandwidth employed depending on the nature of the service being provided; [Subs. P.U.(A) 277/2001]
(e) or fixed apparatus communicating with other fixed apparatus or space apparatus, as in the case of point-to-point systems, the fee is calculated relative to the number of transmit and receive frequencies and the bandwidth for each frequency;
(f) for any fixed apparatus communicating with mobile apparatus such as an aircraft, ship and land mobile, the fee is calculated relative to the number of transmit and receive frequencies and the bandwidth for each frequency employed;
[Am. P.U.(A) 277/2001]
(g) for fixed apparatus communicating with other fixed apparatus or mobile apparatus on the same frequency, for example, an automatic repeater, one fee will be charged for communications with the fixed apparatus and one fee with the mobile apparatus as in the case of a leased channel radio base station and trunked radio base station;
(h) for communications via a fixed apparatus with other apparatus, whether fixed or mobile on the same paired or single frequency, for example, via a repeater or fixed base station, the fee will be charged on a single repeater or base station basis and for the channel bandwidth occupied for each distinct channel as in Table B; and
(i) for fixed apparatus using only one frequency to communicate with any number of mobiles applications, whether aircraft, ship or land mobiles, the fee shall be based on the single use of that frequency and bandwidth.
