The coordination procedure
for the use of frequencies on unplanned bands before such frequencies
come into service aims at securing that all newly operated broadcasting
systems do not interfere with other existing or planned users. Coordination
procedures may be considered as a dynamic planning tool for the
spectrum/ orbit resource which allows a more efficient use of such
a resource.
Frequency coordination
process:
The coordination of frequencies
is a bilateral or a multilateral process carried out by concerned
authorities. It includes following steps:
Identification of any authority which
allocations may be affected and with which an early coordination
should be sought after to reach an agreement.
Use of standardized methods for the
assessment of interference risks.
Implementation of a standardized transparent
procedure and more particularly the exchange of enough data
in a specified format, expressing observations in a given
time limit and if necessary the publication of the coordination
procedure’s results in the appropriate ITU/BR circular.
