The intention is to ensure that radio astronomy receivers are protected from harmful interference, while maximising the opportunities for other spectrum users to use the spectrum. Under the Band Plan and RALI MS32, a potential applicant for a radiocommunication transmitter must consult with the MRO Entity. These principles are consistent with the legislative, regulatory and policy instruments put in place by the Australian Communications and Media Authority (ACMA), including the Radiocommunications (Mid West Radio Quiet Zone) Frequency Band Plan 2011 (the Band Plan), RALI MS 32, as well as the Radio Telescope Mineral Resource Management Area and Section 19 zones under the WA Mining Act 1978, administered by the WA Government Department of Mines and Petroleum. The 2011 Memorandum of Understanding on Radio Quiet Matters (MoU) between the Australian and Western Australian Governments outlines the objectives, principles and processes to protect the radio quiet nature of the MRO and facilitate co-existence between radio astronomy and industry. Coordination zones from 70km up to 260km radius (depending on frequency).An Outer Zone from a 70km to 150km radius and.A 70km radius Inner Zone other radiocommunications services within the Inner Zone are taken to be secondary services in relation to radio astronomy and.The Radio Quiet Zone, centred on the Murchison Radio-astronomy Observatory (MRO), comprises: The Australian Radio Quiet Zone WA (ARQZWA), originally called the Mid West Radio Quiet Zone, was established by the Australian and Western Australian Governments to protect radio astronomy receivers from harmful interference, while allowing for opportunities for coexistence with other activities. Under the Radio Telescope Mineral Resources Management Area (RTMRMA).CSIRO, as the MRO entity, manages the MRO, which is the home to CSIRO's ASKAP telescope and the international MWA project, and the future site of Australian infrastructure for the international Square Kilometre Array (SKA) project.ĬSIRO’s role encompasses a broad range of duties, described in further detail below. The Australian Radio Quiet Zone WA (ARQZWA) is centred on the Murchison Radio-astronomy Observatory (MRO).
