WARC world impact new systems get spectrum assignments / Lou Manuta [electronic resource] :

English

As the result of some 40 days of international negotiations at the 1992 World Administrative Radio Conference (WARC-92), new international frequency allocations for mobile satellite, personal communications, and broadcast satellite sound will standard conditionson October 12, 1993. WARC-92 was asked to address the spectrum requirements for mobile and fixed services, Broadcast Satellite Service, High Definition Television, and Future Public Land Mobile Telephone Service. In the official US report, allocations were also requested for low-earth orbiting (LEO) satellites, both above and below one GHz. One of the critical policy issues addressed at WARC-92 concerned existing services getting protection against harmful interference from newly introduced services. These problems were solved throught the establishment of a coordination procedure between geostationary mobile satellites and the new LEO systems, and by designating some frequencies for secondary usage. WARC also adopted a resolution seeking technical, legal, and operational studies that will lead to the establishment of standards governing the operation of LEO satellites so as to ensure equitable and standard conditions of access.
