ZAGREB, 10 April 2015 – A bilateral meeting between representatives of the Slovenia Agency for Communications Networks and Services (Agencija za komunikacijska omrežja in storitve Slovenije, AKOS) and HAKOM was held in Zagreb and ended with the signature of the Frequency Coordination Agreement for bands between 29.7 MHz and 470 MHz.
Both countries are signatories of the HCM (Harmonised Calculation Method) Agreement which lays down rules for the coordination of frequencies and radio stations used in the operation of mobile and fixed electronic communications networks between neighbouring countries. The allocation of frequencies between countries is agreed at bilateral levels.
Negotiations on the allocation of frequencies in border areas between AKOS and HAKOM were held on several occasions in 2014 resulting in the signature of yesterday’s agreement. In this manner international rights of individual frequencies were defined thus facilitating further planning of private mobile networks (PMR – closed-type networks – firefighters, power distribution, taxi services etc.) and enabling more efficient use and simpler planning of the spectrum in these areas.
