New technology and radio regulation

Historical and current examples show dependence of growth of radiocommunication and new services on international radio regulations for allocation of frequency bands and control of interference. Recent ITU World Radiocommunication Conferences allocated frequency bands for future growth of mobile services, new mobile satellite applications and digital sound broadcasting. An increasingly congested spectrum and complex communication environment challenge the catalytic role of radio regulation. Spread spectrum technology may represent a critical contribution providing its performance and benefits for spectrum use are well understood.<
