use. The ITU Radio Regulations govern satellite communication networks.The approved Reports <strong>and</strong> Recommendations are not <strong>of</strong> themselves obligatoryin the same content as the Radio Regulations, but serve as st<strong>and</strong>ards for use bythe world’s telecommunication community. World administrative radio conferences(WARCs) elect the five members <strong>of</strong> the International FrequencyRegistration Board (IFRB). WARCs may also adopt resolutions <strong>and</strong>recommendations. Only member states vote at these conferences, but representatives<strong>of</strong> other international organizations <strong>and</strong> private sectors can attendthe sessions.The International Radio Consultative Committee (CCIR) <strong>and</strong> the InternationalTelegraph <strong>and</strong> Telephone Consultative Council (CCITT) convenestudy groups in order to recommend technical specifications for equipment<strong>and</strong> to conduct propagation, interference, <strong>and</strong> other types <strong>of</strong> analyses. Thework <strong>of</strong> these committees (CCIR <strong>and</strong> CCITT) has considerable influence onsystem planners, network designers, <strong>and</strong> equipment manufacturers, <strong>and</strong> to alesser degree on operators. For this reason the next subsections briefly describetheir origin, responsibilities, <strong>and</strong> functions.7.1.1 CCIRThe CCIR duties are (as defined under the International TelecommunicationConvention, Nairobi, 1982, first part, chapter 1, Article II, No. 83) to studytechnical <strong>and</strong> operating questions relating specifically to radiocommunicationwithout limit <strong>of</strong> frequency range, <strong>and</strong> to issue recommendations on them. Theobjectives <strong>of</strong> the CCIR are in particular:1. To provide the technical bases for use by the administrative radioconferences <strong>and</strong> radiocommunication services for efficient utilization<strong>of</strong> the radi<strong>of</strong>requency spectrum <strong>and</strong> the geostationary satelliteorbit, bearing in mind the needs <strong>of</strong> the various radio services2. To recommend performance st<strong>and</strong>ards for radio systems <strong>and</strong> technicalarrangements, which ensure their effective <strong>and</strong> compatibleinterworking in international telecommunications3. To collect, exchange, analyze, <strong>and</strong> disseminate technical informationresulting from the studies by the CCIR, <strong>and</strong> other informationavailable, for the development, planning <strong>and</strong> operation <strong>of</strong> radiosystems, including any necessary special measures required t<strong>of</strong>acilitate the use <strong>of</strong> such information in developing countriesCopyright © 2002 by Marcel Dekker, Inc.
