Update to Related ITU-R Recommendations, Reports and Handbooks Agenda of this presentation ITU R Publication Related to Space Radio Monitoring Current Studies on Methods and techniques used in space radio monitoring (carried out by WP 1C in SG1) Study Group 1 (SG 1) : Spectrum Management Working Party 1C (WP 1C) Spectrum monitoring 14/06/2016 2
ITU R Publication Related to Space Radio Monitoring ITU R Resolution: RESOLUTION ITU R 23 3 Extension of the International Monitoring System to a worldwide scale. Res. ITU R 23 is included in provisions of RR Article 16 International monitoring; In the resolves part Cooperation and exchange of monitoring information between monitoring stations concerning space station emissions in order to settle the harmful interference is encouraged. Promote the establishment of monitoring stations and make them available for international monitoring, in accordance with Article 16 of the RR; https://www.itu.int/pub/r RES/en 14/06/2016 3
ITU R Publication Related to Space Radio Monitoring ITU R Question: QUESTION ITU R 232/1 Methods and techniques used in space radio monitoring In the decides part, the following Question should be studied What methods, techniques, procedures and measuring equipments are appropriate for the measurement of emission from both GSO and non GSO space stations? What methods, techniques, procedures and measuring equipments are appropriate for the measurement of emission from earth stations to both GSO and non GSO space stations? https://www.itu.int/pub/r QUE SG01/en 14/06/2016 4
ITU R Publication Related to Space Radio Monitoring ITU R Recommendations: Rec. ITU R SM. 1139 International monitoring system Included in provisions of RR Article 16 (but not incorporated by reference) Recommends 7: administrations shall make every effort to arrange for monitoring observations (see Annex 1) to be submitted to the Radiocommunication Bureau as soon as possible Annex 1: Reports of international monitoring of emissions (Section II. Reports Concerning Stations in the Space Radiocommunication Services) Rec. ITU R SM. 1054 Monitoring of Radio Emissions From Spacecraft At Monitoring Stations Administrations when utilize the frequency bands allocated for satellite servicesshouldtakeinto account the need for monitoring Administrations are encouraged to cooperate so that appropriate monitoring can be obtained with a minimum number of monitoring stations https://www.itu.int/rec/r REC SM/en 14/06/2016 5
