•
U.S. Telecommunications
Authority
The 1934 Telecommunications Act Provides for Regulation of
Telecommunications in the U.S.A.
 Establishes Dual Structure, Unique to the U.S.A.:
•
•
 Government Telecommunications Functions Delegated to the Assistant
Secretary of Commerce and the National Telecommunications and Information
Agency (NTIA)
NTIA Is Assisted by the Interdepartment Radio Advisory Committee (IRAC)
 Private Sector Telecommunications Regulated by the Federal Communications
Commission (FCC)
The Dept. of State Has Ultimate Authority in Any Formal U.S.
Representation Outside the U.S.
Spectrum policy regarding scientific research is contained in
the US Government Telecommunications Policy statement:
>
>
“The United States is vitally dependent upon the use of the radio spectrum to carry
out national policies and achieve national goals.”…..
“Specifically, in support of national policies and the achievement of national goals,
the primary objectives are:

>
…i) to promote scientific research, development and exploration..”
“ Priorities among these areas of interest are normally determined on a case by-case
basis, and are dependent upon many factors, including past and foreseen political
and administrative decisions.”

Management, Chapter 2.1)

•
Serves as the President's principal advisor on telecommunications
policies
Develop (in cooperation with the Federal Communications
Commission) a comprehensive plan for management of all
electromagnetic spectrum resources, including jointly determining
the National Table of Frequency Allocations
Develop (in coordination with the Secretary of State and other
interested agencies) plans, policies, and programs which relate to
international telecommunications issues, conferences, and
negotiations
Assign frequencies to radio stations belonging to and operated by
the United States
Acquire, analyze and disseminate data and perform research on the
description and prediction of electromagnetic wave propagation
and the conditions which affect propagation, on the nature of
electromagnetic noise and interference, and on methods for the
more efficient use of the electromagnetic spectrum for
telecommunications purposes
Conduct research and analysis of radio systems characteristics,
and operating techniques affecting the utilization of the
electromagnetic spectrum, in coordination with specialized, related
research and analysis performed by other Federal agencies in their
areas of responsibility

Use of Advisory Committees of limited duration and responsibility (e.g. The
WRC Advisory Committee (WAC), set up to prepare for a WRC)
Public rulemakings (as prescribed by the APA)
In the U.S., Spectrum Is Divided Into:
>
>
>
Government exclusive, (e.g.
Non-government exclusive, and
Shared (govt - non-govt) bands (Most are in this category)
Spectrum Related Issues Require Actions by the NTIA, the FCC
or Both
The FCC and the NTIA “coordinate” on spectrum decisions
involving shared bands (This extends to WRC proposals involving such
bands)

The Allocation Table (Art. 5 of the RR)
Frequencies are:
> allocated to services
> allotted to areas or countries
> assigned to stations
Spectrum Allocations to the various radio services can be:
> Primary
 Table Allocations
 Footnote Allocations
> Secondary
 Table Allocations
 Footnote Allocations
 stations of a secondary service shall not cause harmful interference
to stations of primary services
 cannot claim protection from from stations of a primary service
 stations of a secondary service CAN claim protection from stations
of a secondary service to which frequencies are assigned at a later
date
> Unprotected
 Some bands are allocated to the radio astronomy service on an unprotected
basis. In this case, footnotes to the allocated frequency band urge
administrations to take all practicable steps to protect these observations from
harmful interference either from in-band radio services or from unwanted
emissions from adjacent band radio services.

The US Allocation Table
•
•
In the U.S., bands may be allocated to:
> the Government, e.g. the 267-322 MHz band allocated to the Fixed
and Mobile Services
> the Private Sector (also referred to as the non-government) e.g. the
88-108 MHz Broadcasting bands
> Jointly to the government and the privates sector (most bands)
> All Radio Astronomy bands are govt/non-govt. ( NRAO and NAIC are
government operations, while University facilities are not)
Allocations may be qualified by footnotes:
> Government (applies to govt. only)

G126--Differential-Global-Positioning-System (DGPS) Stations may be authorized on a primary
basis in the bands 108-117.975 MHz, 1559-1610 MHz, and 5000-5150 MHz for the specific
purpose of transmitting DGPS information intended for aircraft navigation.
> Non-Government (applies to non-govt. only)

NG104--The use of the bands 10.7-11.7 Hz (space-to-Earth) and 12.75-13.25 GHz (Earth-to-space) in
the fixed-satellite service in the geostationary-satellite orbit shall be limited to international systems,
i.e., other than domestic systems.
> Joint

•
US256--Radio astronomy observations may be made in the band 1718.8-1722.2 MHz on an
unprotected basis. Agencies providing other services in this band in the geographic areas
listed below should bear in mind that their operations may affect those observations, and
those agencies are encouraged to minimize potential interference to the observations insofar
as it is practicable.
The National Table of Frequency Allocations is comprised of the
U.S.Government Table of Frequency Allocations and the FCC Table of
Frequency Allocations.The National Table indicates the normal national
frequency allocation planning and the degree of conformity with the17ITU

How Does the Dual Track (or Triad)
Process Work: WRC Preparations
•
Three Track Process:
> Government proposals developed within
TG 200/300
the Radio Conference Subcommittee (RCS)
of the IRAC with and/or based on Agency (e.g. NSF) inputs
> Private Sector Proposals are developed by the FCC
* FCC Convenes WRC (Industry) Advisory Committee (WAC)
to Provide Private Sector Input
* WAC Develops Proposals
* FCC Publishes Notice of Inquiry (NoI) Regarding Proposals
> Govt. and NTIA proposals often differ and have to be reconciled
> This is sometimes (usually?) a lengthy and painful process!
> U.S. Radiocommunication Sector SGs, WPs and TGs
•

How Does the Dual Track Process
Work: WRC Implementation
•
Govt. Implementation of WRC actions:
(usually a fairly straightforward process)
•
> IRAC AH committee considers WRC actions and how to
incorporate them into the US Government Table
> Once agreement is reached, proposal forwarded to IRAC for
approval
> Upon IRAC approval, NTIA sends package to the FCC
FCC Implementation
> Implementation proposal put together by International
Bureau
> Circulated to other Bureaus for coordination and approval
> Circulated to Commissioners
> Put out for Public comment through a Notice of Proposed
Rulemaking (NPRM)
> After public comment, FCC coordinates with NTIA and
adopts changes through a Report & Order

Problems and Advantages of US
Process
•
Advantage:
Isolates Government and Private Sector
Interests and Procedures
•
Disadvantage:
“Dual spectrum jurisdiction has become
fertile ground for internecine squabbles
within government that has industry
increasingly asking who's in charge.”

How To Get Involved With
ITU-R SGs WPs, and the rest
In the U.S.:
> Membership in US ITU-R SGs, WPs, etc. is open, as provided
by the Federal Advisory Committee Act (FACA), that
regulates their functioning
> SG Meeting Dates and Places have to be announced in the
Federal Register 30 days in advance of the meeting
 WP meetings do not need to be similarly advertised,
as they are considered subcommittees of the main group
> If someone desires to participate, he/she needs to:
a) contact the Chair of the SG/WP or
b) simply show up at the meeting
> Membership in CORF is by invitation of the National
Academy of Sciences/National Research Council
> Membership in WP Delegations is up to the Chair
> Membership in SG Delegations is up to the State Dept.
(hardly anyone is ever refused!)
•
> Membership in WRC Delegations is determined by the State Dept.,
acting on Recommendation of NTIA and/or FCC
