This chapter lists radio spectrum allocations for both passive and active science services described in Chapters 1, 2, and 3. For spectrum allocation purposes, the Radio Regulations of the International Telecommunication Union (ITU) divide the world into three regions, as shown in Figure 5.1. The United States (U.S.) is in Region 2. As of June 2015, the spectrum allocations are established only for frequencies below 275 GHz. Nonetheless, while no formal allocations are established above 275 GHz, the ITU Radio Regulation 5.565 urges administrations to take all practicable steps to protect passive services from harmful interference in the frequency range of 275-1000 GHz and states that 1000-3000 GHz may be used by both passive and active services.1
Frequency allocations and footnotes relevant to the science services in Radio Astronomy, Earth Exploration, Space Research and Operation, and Meteorological Aids and Satellite are listed in Table 5.1. The allocations presented in this chapter are based upon the Table of Frequency Allocations published by the U.S. Federal Communications Commission (FCC) on May 15, 2015, and codified at Section 2.106 of the Commission’s Rules. Table 5.1 consists of the International Table of Frequency Allocations (“International Table”) and the U.S. Table of Frequency Allocations (“United States Table”). The International Table is subdivided into allocations for the three regions (Columns 1, 2, and 3). The U.S. Table is subdivided into the allocations for federal government services (Column 4) established by the National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA) and non-federal government services (Column 5) established by the FCC. Some of the pertinent rules or rule parts2 for non-federal allocated services established by the FCC are provided in Column 6. In addition, Column 7 lists key areas of study enabled by the scientific services, along with corresponding section numbers from Chapters 1, 2, and 3 where these services are described in detail.
_____________
1 The full text of ITU Radio Regulation 5.565 is provided at the end of Table 5.1.
2 A selected list of these rules and regulations that are particularly relevant to Radio Astronomy Service and Earth Exploration Satellite Service are given in Appendix G. The full rules and regulations are codified in Title 47 of the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR). They are initially published in the Federal Register. Links to the CFR are maintained by the FCC at https://www.fcc.gov/encyclopedia/rules-regulations-title-47.

See http://www.itu.int/ITU-R/ for more information.
Each row in Table 5.1 consists of the frequency range covered and the services allocated in that range. The table lists frequency ranges that are relevant to the science services and includes all other services that are allocated in those ranges. The services marked in all capital letters (such as “EARTH EXPLORATION SATELLITE”) indicate a primary allocation, where entities properly authorized to operate in that service are entitled to protection from harmful interference from any other services in that frequency range. The services with the first letter capitalized (such as “Radio astronomy”) indicate that the allocation is on a secondary basis. The ITU rules require that “stations of secondary services: i) shall not cause harmful interference to stations of a primary service to which frequencies are already assigned or may be assigned at a later date; ii) cannot claim protection from harmful interference from stations of a primary service to which frequencies are already assigned or may be assigned at a later date; and iii) can claim protection, however, from harmful interference from stations of a same or other secondary service(s) to which frequencies may be assigned at a later date.” Along with the primary and secondary services, each row has numbers such as “5.340” in the International Table, indicating footnotes to the allocation table. If the footnote appears directly next to the service, then it applies only to that service. If it appears at the bottom of the row, then it applies to all the services in the frequency range. Footnotes are important and may place significant restrictions on specific services or provide for additional allocations in the frequency range. For example, in the International Table, footnote 5.340 provides exclusive protection for the passive services in several frequency ranges. In the U.S. Table, the footnotes are marked with prefixes such as “US,” “NG,” or “G,” indicating applicability of the footnotes to both federal and non-federal operations, only to non-federal operations, or only to federal operations, respectively. All the footnotes relevant to the Radio Astronomy Service (RAS) and the Earth Exploration
Satellite Service (EESS) described in Chapters 2 and 3 are set in boldface. The frequency allocations that contain footnotes relevant to science services are explicitly marked as “Regulations relevant to science services” in Column 7. Full texts of all the footnotes used in the allocations table are reprinted from the FCC Table of Frequency Allocations and provided at the end of Table 5.1.
Any radio astronomy or Earth remote sensing station observing in a band in which RAS or EESS is allocated is urged to register its operations so that the regulator is aware of its presence and can provide interference protection. For RAS sites, registration is typically done through the National Science Foundation’s Electromagnetic Spectrum Management office; for EESS sites, registration is typically done through the NASA Space Communications and Navigation Directorate’s Spectrum Management office or the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s Radio Frequency Management Division.
Because regulations, allocations, and footnotes can change, the reader is advised to consult NTIA’s Manual of Regulations and Procedures for Federal Radio Frequency Management (Redbook) or the FCC’s Online Table of Frequency Allocations, the Radio Regulations, and the ITU Radiocommunication Sector (ITU-R) recommendations for the latest information. The Redbook can be found at http://www.ntia.doc.gov/osmhome/redbook/redbook.html, the FCC’s document can be found at http://www.fcc.gov/oet/spectrum/table/fcctable.pdf, and the ITU-R recommendations are at http://www.itu.int/opb/.

5.54C | Additional allocation: in China, the frequency band 8.3-9 kHz is also allocated to the maritime radionavigation and maritime mobile services on a primary basis. (WRC-12) |
5.57 | The use of the bands 14-19.95 kHz, 20.05-70 kHz and 70-90 kHz (72-84 kHz and 86-90 kHz in Region 1) by the maritime mobile service is limited to coast radiotelegraph stations (A1A and F1B only). Exceptionally, the use of class J2B or J7B emissions is authorized subject to the necessary bandwidth not exceeding that normally used for class A1A or F1B emissions in the band concerned. |
5.56 | The stations of services to which the bands 14-19.95 kHz and 20.05-70 kHz and in Region 1 also the bands 72-84 kHz and 86-90 kHz are allocated may transmit standard frequency and time signals. Such stations shall be afforded protection from harmful interference. In Armenia, Azerbaijan, Belarus, the Russian Federation, Georgia, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan and Turkmenistan, the frequencies 25 kHz and 50 kHz will be used for this purpose under the same conditions. (WRC-12) |
5.58 | Additional allocation: in Armenia, Azerbaijan, the Russian Federation, Georgia, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan and Turkmenistan, the band 67-70 kHz is also allocated to the radionavigation service on a primary basis. |
5.92 | Some countries of Region 1 use radiodetermination systems in the bands 1606.5-1625 kHz, 1635-1800 kHz, 1850-2160 kHz, 2194-2300 kHz, 2502-2850 kHz and 3500-3800 kHz, subject to agreement obtained under No. 9.21. The radiated mean power of these stations shall not exceed 50 W. |
5.103 | In Region 1, in making assignments to stations in the fixed and mobile services in the bands 1850-2045 kHz, 2194-2498 kHz, 2502-2625 kHz and 2650-2850 kHz, administrations should bear in mind the special requirements of the maritime mobile service. |
5.104 | In Region 1, the use of the band 2025-2045 kHz by the meteorological aids service is limited to oceanographic buoy stations. |
5.111 | The carrier frequencies 2182 kHz, 3023 kHz, 5680 kHz, 8364 kHz and the frequencies 121.5 MHz, 156.525 MHz, 156.8 MHz and 243 MHz may also be used, in accordance with the procedures in force for terrestrial radiocommunication services, for search and rescue operations concerning manned space vehicles. The conditions for the use of the frequencies are prescribed in Article 31. |
The same applies to the frequencies 10003 kHz, 14993 kHz and 19993 kHz, but in each of these cases emissions must be confined in a band of ± 3 kHz about the frequency. (WRC-07) |
|
5.114 | Alternative allocation: in Denmark and Iraq, the band 2502-2625 kHz is allocated to the fixed and mobile, except aeronautical mobile, services on a primary basis. (WRC-12) |
