Conditional regulatory forbearance
We have now applied conditional regulatory forbearance for wideband amplifiers in spectrum licensed bands and base stations operating across the 3.4/3.8 GHz bands. Read more information in our conditional regulatory forbearance notice.

Technical frameworks
Each frequency band under a spectrum licence has a technical framework.
These frameworks include:
- the main licence conditions
- the level of interference that is unacceptable when you register a device
- advisory guidelines
We develop technical frameworks with industry working groups. This generally happens before we give new spectrum licences.
We may change the framework if all licence holders in the band agree.
Technical frameworks for each frequency band
| Band | Description | |
| 700 MHz | Mobile voice and broadband | 700 MHz technical framework |
| 850/900 MHz | Mobile voice and broadband | 850/950 MHz technical framework |
| 1800 MHz | Mobile voice and broadband | 1800 MHz technical framework |
| 2 GHz | Mobile voice and broadband | 2 GHz technical framework |
| 2.3 GHz | Mobile voice and broadband | 2.3 GHz technical framework |
| 2.5 GHz | Mobile voice and broadband | 2.5 GHz technical framework |
| 2.5 GHz mid-band | Television outside broadcasting | 2.5 GHz mid-band technical framework |
| 3.4 GHz | Mobile voice and broadband | 3.4 GHz technical framework |
| 20/30 GHz | Defence | 20/30 GHz technical framework |
| 26 GHz | Fixed/mobile broadband | 26 GHz technical framework |
