    3. 3 US DoD Spectrum Supportability Introduction Definition of Spectrum Supportability The “real” meaning of Spectrum Supportability US DoD Spectrum Supportability Process Issues Problems (Do we have any?) Oversight (How does it work?) Policy (Do we have sufficient policy?) Enforcement (Do we have sufficient enforcement of current policy?) Industry Views (Can DoD Policies be Implemented? Improvements) Raytheon Harris Alibis & Questions Introduction slide Introduction slide

    4. 4 Definition – DODD 4650.1 Spectrum Supportability (SS). The assessment as to whether the electromagnetic spectrum necessary to support the operation of an spectrum-dependent equipment or system during its expected life cycle is, or will be, available. SS requires (at a minimum): Host Nation Supportability Assessment (i.e., approval) (since we aren’t guaranteed spectrum within the US, we consider the US as a “Host Nation”) Electromagnetic Environmental Effects (E3) Assessment and implementation of E3 Controls when necessary Reasonable assurance of obtaining an operational frequency assignment

    5. 5 SS – the real intent To provide our Warfighters with Spectrum-Dependent equipment that can operate in its intended environment, that is: Without Spectrum related limitations (power, bandwidth, location, etc.); Without Suffering (or causing) harmful interference or disastrous interactions with the electromagnetic environment; and Is interoperable with our Allies and Coalition Partners

    6. 6 MCEB Spectrum Supportability Process

    7. 7 ITU has divided the world into three separate regions. Some Radio Regulations (“rules”) apply to all three regions Some RRs apply to specific regions US “lives” & trains in Region 2; Trains and Operates in all three regions EUCOM in Region 1; PACOM & CENTCOM mostly in Region 3 Some countries will take “exception” to certain “international” or regional RRs – done by inserting a country “footnote” in the ITU RRs ITU has divided the world into three separate regions.

    15. 15 Are We Serious about Electromagnetic Spectrum Management?

    16. 16 Industry Views – Harris & Raytheon Harris & Raytheon have been developing communica-tions systems for the military for many years and their products are used extensively throughout DoD and in Foreign Countries Has Industry been able to follow current procedures & guidance? What can DoD Do Better? Policy – enough? Guidance – sufficient? Enforcement – Lacking? What can Industry Do to Assist?

    19. 19 Historical Problems 1987: GAO 87-42, Radio Frequencies – Earlier Coordination Could Improve System Use and Save Costs EUROPE: Reviewed 137 Sys; 88 Submitted after Prod & Devel UPQ-3A & 3B; Mobile TACAN; GBU-15; HAVE QUICK; Seek Talk Delays and unnecessary costs resulted when DOD did not coordinate with HNs early in the development of communication systems to ensure that the frequencies selected would be approved. 1998: DoD IG 99-009, Coordination of Electromagnetic Frequency Management and Int’l Telecommunications Agreements 89 Sys deployed w/o SS; CENTCOM (4); EUCOM (7) PACOM (78) 15 Systems represented $39B investment PMs did not comply w DoDD 4650.1 & DoD 5000.2-R Risked damage to HN relations and degraded equip performance

    20. 20 Historical Problems (Cont’d) 2001: GAO 01-604, New Procedures Could Help Reduce Interference Problems Noted update of DoD 5000-Series & Development of CJCSI 3170.01 DOD has taken steps to help ensure that PMs identify and address potential interference problems early in system development Progress Is Being Made, but Evaluation of Changes Is Premature 2001: S Rpt 107-151 (NDAA 2003 Pg 344) Concern with the manner in which the DoD currently addresses EM radio frequency spectrum requirements during the development and acquisition of new weapons systems. Concern that DOD has pursued the development of weapons systems utilizing portions of the radio frequency spectrum not designated for military use, which can lead to unintended interference Committee continues to believe that spectrum issues will play a key role in the development of new DOD weapons systems. Committee directs the GAO to update its May 2001 report (01-604)

    22. 22 CJCSM 3170.01 JOINT CAPABILITIES INTEGRATION AND DEVELOPMENT SYSTEM (JCIDS) Applies to the Joint Staff, Services, combatant commands, Defense agencies and joint and combined activities. It also applies to other agencies preparing and submitting JCIDS documents in accordance with references CJCSI 3170.01 & DODI 5000.2 contains procedures and instructions regarding the staffing and development of Initial Capabilities Documents, Capability Development Documents, Capability Production Documents, and Capstone Requirements Documents

    23. 23 Guidance in CJCSM 3170.01 IT and NSS Interoperability & Supportability Requirements Certification – (J-6). (1) The Joint Staff J-6 will certify all CRDs, CDDs and CPDs designated as JROC Interest or Joint Integration for conformance with joint IT and NSS policy and doctrine, and compliance with integrated architectures (as available) and interoperability standards in accordance with references CJCSI 62 & DODI 4630.8. J-6 will review and comment on the IT and NSS NR-KPP. J-6 will coordinate IT and NSS issues concerning JCIDS documents with the appropriate agencies, in accordance with reference h and as directed by references DODD 4630.5 & DODI 4630.8 Unresolved interoperability issues will be forwarded to the Military Communications Electronics Board (MCEB) for resolution. The MCEB will ensure that issues resulting from interoperability assessments that they cannot resolve are delivered to the FCB, reviewed by the DOD CIO and presented to the JROC for resolution, regardless of the document’s JPD.
