Notification of Frequency Utilisation
As part of continuing efforts to provide efficient management of the radiofrequency
spectrum in Nigeria, the Commission is putting in place a modern Spectrum
Management and Monitoring System (SMMS). As part of the SMMS implementation,
detailed information is required about current and continuing utilisation of frequencies
assigned to telecommunications operators, equipment operating on those frequencies
and sites/locations where they are deployed, etc. The information is required for
creating a database on the utilization of frequencies and associated information that
will be constantly updated. The records will provide an invaluable resource for (i)
facilitating resolution of interference; (ii) spectrum planning, policy; and (iii) the
overall spectrum management strategy of the Commission.
All telecommunications operators are accordingly required to furnish the relevant
information to the Commission according to the prescribed format and also update
same periodically as specified by the Commission.
