Spectrum Resource Assessment of the 1530–1660.5 MHz Band
Jay S. Levy
Abstract: This report documents a spectrum resource assessment of the 1530–1660.5 MHz band. The impact of allocation changes resulting from the WARC-79 are addressed. Information is included on allocations, frequency assignments, system characteristics, and spectrum measurements made with the RSMS van. A review of previous analyses was conducted. No unmanageable spectrum management problems involving the major systems presently operating in, or firmly planned for, this band are identified. This report is based on information available through March 1983.
