2 BR INTERNATIONAL FREQUENCY INFORMATION CIRCULAR BR IFIC (Space Services)

3 BR IFIC Introduction The BR International Frequency Information Circular (BR IFIC) (Space services) Prior to 2000, Special sections and PARTs, were distributed in Weekly Information Circulars (WIC) - published on paper, microfiche and later on floppy disk (diskette)

4 BR IFIC Introduction The BR International Frequency Information Circular (BR IFIC) (Space services) RES-30 (WRC-97) instructed the BR to initiate the introduction of a CD-ROM (electronic) format, the BR International Frequency Information Circular (BR IFIC) (Space services) As of BR IFIC 2410/ new electronic publication, replaced the previous publication of the (WICs) on paper and microfiche. Due to the substantial increase of the volume of information the Bureau has changed the format of the BR IFIC (Space services) as of BR IFIC 2710/ from CD-ROM to DVD-ROM and as of BR IFIC 2833/ to a DUAL Layer DVD-ROM

5 BR IFIC Description - 1 The BR IFIC (Space services) is a service document in DVD-ROM format, published once every two weeks by the Bureau in accordance with provision Nos to 20.6 and No of the Radio Regulations (RR) As from BR IFIC 2410 of 11 January 2010, the BR IFIC (Space services) represents the sole publication format for Space services, for submissions under the relevant provisions and Resolutions of the Radio Regulations including Articles 9 and 11, and Appendices 30, 30A and 30B of the RR The BR IFIC (Space services) represents an official acknowledgement of receipt, in terms of No of the RR (PART I-S), as far as the frequency assignments to the Space services are concerned, as well as a statutory publication of the particulars of frequency assignments to the Space services which are recorded in the Master Register pursuant to the relevant provisions of the RR (PART II-S), or returned to administrations as a result of unfavorable findings (PART III-S)

6 BR IFIC Description - 2 Following publications and data files are distributed ONLY in the BR IFIC (Space services) PARTs and Special sections in PDF format SpaceCom draft data (draft CR/D data per network (named IFICnnnn_BR_CRCxxxx.mdb) listing the administrations which have submitted a disagreement under No. 9.52) Space Radiocommunication Stations (SRS) reference database (SRSxxxx.mdb) Graphical Interference Management System (GIMS) data (GREFxxxx.mdb)

7 BR IFIC Description - 3 Following publications and data files are distributed in the BR IFIC (Space services) and at the Bureau SSD website: ificxxxx.mdb (data of satellite network filings submitted under ART 9&11 and RES49 which are present in the Table Of Contents of the BR IFIC xxxx) SPS_ALL_xxxx.mdb (data with examination results of satellite network filings submitted under AP30/30A which are present in the Table Of Contents of the BR IFIC xxxx) 30B_xxxx.mdb (data with examination results of satellite network filings submitted under AP30B which are present in the Table Of Contents of the BR IFIC xxxx) The BR IFIC (Space services) is also used to distribute software developed by the Bureau for electronic notification and carrying out validation and technical examination, especially SpaceCap, SpaceVal, SpacePub, SIS (SpaceQry), SpaceCom, GIMS, Appendix 7, GIBC, SPS

8 BR IFIC Main Features All PARTs and Special section publications are in 6 languages of the Union (originally from in English, French, Spanish and as of also in Arabic, Chinese and Russian language) Starting with BR IFIC 2548/ , all BR IFIC publications contains a mark - ITU logo at the bottom right of each page this mark shall identify an official ITU publication NOTE: The only official regulatory reference for coordination/ consultation between the administrations is ONLY the corresponding PART or Special section contained in PDF format in the BR IFIC (Space services)

9 IFICxxxx.mdb The IFICxxxx.mdb file (MS Access format), published on the BR IFIC, is located in the Databases\IFIC_data directory. This file contains TSUM data of satellite networks or ES: PART-IS, PART-IIS and PART-IIIS; Special Sections: API/A (as of IFIC 2464/ ) (as of IFIC 2796/ N-GSO only) CR/C (as of IFIC 2460/ ) CR/F (as of ) RES49 (as of IFIC 2553/ ) only if present in the Table Of Contents of the BR IFIC IFICxxxx.mdb is also available on the BR website:

10 SRSxxxx.mdb Database The SRSxxxx.mdb file is published ONLY on the BR IFICxxxx (Space services) DVD-ROM in: Databases\SRS_Data directory This file contains complete alphanumeric information relating to satellite networks and Earth stations recorded in the Master International Frequency Register (MIFR) in accordance with ART 11 or in the process of coordination (Sect II ART 9) or published under the advance publication of information procedure (API) not subject of coordination (Sub-Sect IA of ART 9) as well as Administrative Due Diligence (Resolution 49) The information in the SRSxxxx.mdb is a snapshot of the MIFR taken at the time the BR IFICxxxx DVD-ROM was produced The SRS database structure is described in detail in Section III, Chapter 1 of the Preface

11 GREFxxxx.mdb Database Complete Graphical Interference Management System (GIMS) reference database (REFDB) - GREFxxxx.mdb data are publishes ONLY on the BR IFICxxxx (Space services) DVD-ROM in: Databases\GIMS_Data directory GIMS users can choose whether to leave REFDB on the master folder, i.e. the DVD-ROM, or to work with a local copy on their PC REFDB Automatic Update Every time GIMS needs to connect to a local REFDB copy it checks in the master folder to see if a newer version of REFDB is available. If the master folder is not accessible, which can frequently happen when it is located on the BR IFIC DVD-ROM, the local copy is considered up to date. Otherwise GIMS compares the local and master copies to decide whether an update is required.

12 Space Plan Data Data for Planned Space Networks (Appendices 30, 30A & 30B) Technical characteristics and reference situation (EPM) for Planned networks can be found in the: \Databases\AP30_30A\SPS_ALL_IFICxxxx (AP30&30A) \Databases\AP30B\30B_xxxx (AP30B) The MSPACEg output database for each network can be found in the \Databases\AP30_30A\TEX_results\ directory. This database contains the detailed results of MSPACE calculation All Space Plan data are also distributed at the SSD website

13 List of information "as received As of BR IFIC 2836/ NO more as received on the BR IFIC. RES-55 (rev.
