This radiocommunication service is classified in accordance with ITU Radio Regulations (article 1) as follows:
Broadcasting service (article 1.38)

  • Broadcasting-satellite service (article 1.32)

Frequency allocation

The allocation of radio frequencies is provided according to Article 5 of the ITU Radio Regulations (edition 2012).[2]

In order to improve harmonisation in spectrum utilisation, the majority of service-allocations stipulated in this document were incorporated in national Tables of Frequency Allocations and Utilisations which is with-in the responsibility of the appropriate national frequency administration.
