  1. RADIO SPECTRUMMANAGEMENT Prepared by Torsten JACOB ANB/CNS MID Office, Cairo, 4 – 6 June 2006

  2. Introduction • Aircraft operation would neither be safe nor be capable of meeting the global demand for rapid and cost-effective transport without aeronautical radio services. • Radio spectrum is a scarce natural resource with finite capacity limits and constantly increasing demands. • Radio frequency spectrum congestion imposes the need for an efficient and effective spectrum and frequency management system. MID Office, Cairo, 4 – 6 June 2006

  3. Introduction MID Office, Cairo, 4 – 6 June 2006

  4. Spectrum and Frequency Management • Spectrum management is the combination of administrative and technical procedures necessary to ensure the interference-free and efficient operation of radio services (e.g. Radionavigation). • Frequency management deals with the assignment of frequencies to transmitting and/or receiving stations (e.g. airborne radio station). MID Office, Cairo, 4 – 6 June 2006

  5. Frequency bands Frequency bands for aeronautical radio services: MID Office, Cairo, 4 – 6 June 2006

  6. ITU • The International Telecommunication Union (ITU) is the specialized agency of the United Nations for telecommunications matters where international agreements are made on the use of the radio frequency spectrum • ITU Radio Regulations provide a basis for the regulation of radio frequency spectrum between 9 kHz and 275 GHz MID Office, Cairo, 4 – 6 June 2006

  7. ICAO • Was created in 1944 to promote the safe and orderly development of civil aviation in the world • Specialized agency of the United Nations, sets international Standards and Regulations necessary for the safety, security, efficiency and regularity of air transport… MID Office, Cairo, 4 – 6 June 2006

  8. ICAO’s role • Analyze the agenda of ITU WRC’s (World Radiocommunication Conferences) • Develop an ICAO position • Work with ITU and Regional Telecommunications Organizations (APT, CEPT, CITEL…) • Submit the approved position to States and ITU • Participate in WRC’s MID Office, Cairo, 4 – 6 June 2006

  9. Main goals for WRC-07 • Protect airborne weather radar and primary radar systems for short‑range applications including precision approach radar and airport surface detection equipment (ASDE) • Protect high frequency (HF) bands used for aeronautical communications and to review regulatory and operational provisions for maritime mobile service identities (MMSIs) on search and rescue aircraft • Introduce additional global spectrum allocations to accommodate new applications to satisfy future air traffic management (ATM) and potential aviation security requirements MID Office, Cairo, 4 – 6 June 2006

  10. What is expected from States • Assist in the development of the ICAO position • Participate with aviation experts in the work of ITU and Regional Telecommunications Organizations • Send aviation experts to WRC’s (A32-13) • Support ICAO position (Assembly Resolution A32-13) • WRC-2007 – Geneva Switzerland, October 2007 • Next WRC – 2010 MID Office, Cairo, 4 – 6 June 2006
