for the use of resources in public ownership
Explanation:
"javna dobra" here are various resources owned by the State or the "public" (State owned land, roads, forests, lakes, rivers, etc)
This specific law is about radio-frequencies, more precisely about licence fees payable for the right to use them. As far the State is concerned, certain frequency bands are State owned (btw, the frequency bands that anyone can use freely are said to be "in the public domain"). From the point of view of the State, these frequency bands are just assets as would be some very tangible one - land or roads or ....
You can "rent" the use of a specific frequency to broadcast over a defined area for a given time period, same as you could rent a piece of land for a specific time period. When you’re "renting" the use of a radio frequency, you would pay a "licence fee”. I’m not sure what would be an all-purpose translation for "naknada" in this context, (that would also apply if for example, you cut trees in a State owned forest.)

agree  Nenad Radosavljević: Moglo bi i "publicly owned(ili publicily-owned) resources". Ideja je tvoja, pa zato ne bih da ovo postavljam kao odgovor.Evo sajta o počecima televizije u Americi(treći pasus): http://chnm.gmu.edu/exploring/20thcentury/regulatingtelevisi...

  -> Hvala! Ideja nije moja, to ono što je u izvornom tekstu. "publicly owned resources" could also do.

neutral  V&M Stanković: konkretno, nisu u pitanju materijalna dobra, pa ni takve uopštene analogije sa svojinom ili vlasništvom (property, ownership) nisu primenljive - v. Reference comments

  -> "Naknada" podrazumeva da korisnik plaća državi "zakupninu" za korišćenje državne imovine - Radio-frekvencije jesu “nematerijalno dobro” u vlasništvu države, isto toliko koliko i šume i putevi. Basics of law and economy.

Reference: Public property, state property

Reference information:
This article is about public ownership.

Public property is property, which is dedicated to the use of the public. It is a subset of state property. The term may be used either to describe the use to which the property is put, or to describe the character of its ownership (owned collectively by the population of a state). This is in contrast to private property, owned by an individual person or artificial entities that represent the financial interests of persons, such as corporations.
State ownership, also called public ownership, government ownership or state property, are property interests that are vested in the state, rather than an individual or communities.

Crown property

In the modern representative democracy, "public property" is said to be owned by the people as a commons or held in trust by the government for common benefit. In many Commonwealth realms, such property is said to be owned by the Crown. Examples include Crown land, Crown copyright, and Crown Dependencies.
Canada

In the Canada, The Public Debt and Property are under the exclusive Legislative Authority of the Parliament of Canada [3] rather than Queen or local authority, according to the Constitution Acts, 1867 to 1982, article 91. ..."
