  1. National and International Regulatory Forces

  2. ITU Structure

  3. International Telecommunication Union • United Nations specialized agency • Based in Geneva, Switzerland • 189 Member nations • Over 650 sector members • History…goes back to the beginning of interconnecting telegraph across international borders; then sinking of the Titanic in the North Atlantic • http://www.itu.int

  4. ITU • International telecom agreements • Technical standards for telecom network • Telecom development • Radio Regulations – treaty status document international Table of Frequency Allocations • International frequency and satellite position registration • Coordinate efforts to eliminate harmful interference between different countries • Develop technical standards & operational procedures for radio

  5. ITUOrganization

  6. ITU PLENIPOTENTIARY CONFERENCE • Oversees the activities of the ITU • Meets every four years • Amends the Constitution and Convention of the ITU • Elects ITU officers, establishes organization structure, operating rules/policies and financial budgets • All ITU Members participate and must ratify the results of the Conference to remain a Member

  7. ITU TELECOMMUNICATION SECTOR (ITU-T) • Studies technical, operational and tariff issues – mostly wireline related • Adopts recommendations standardizing telecommunications on a worldwide basis such as modems and interconnection arrangements

  8. ITU DEVELOPMENT SECTOR (ITU-D) • Fosters telecommunications development, broadly • Can also study spectrum management and radio issues as they affect developing countries • The WTDC is meeting in Istanbul, Turkey this month, March 2002

  9. ITU RADIOCOMMUNICATION SECTOR (ITU-R) • International Radio Regulations • International Table of Frequency Allocations • International frequency Registration • Recommendations on spectrum use and management • Technical standards

  36. World Radiocommunication Conference • Revise the Radio Regulations and any associated Frequency Assignment and Allotment Plans; • Address any radiocommunication matter of worldwide character • Instruct the Radio Regulations Board and the Radiocommunication Bureau, and review their activities • Determine questions for study by the Radiocommunication Assembly and its Study Groups in preparation for future Radiocommunication Conferences.

  37. RADIOCOMMUNICATIONASSEMBLY • IMMEDIATELY BEFORE EACH WRC • ASSIGNS STUDY QUESTIONS • RESPONDS TO WRCs • SETS WORK PROGRAM FOR SGs • ESTABLISHES OPERATING PROCEDURES • APPROVES RECOMMENDATIONS

  38. RADIO REGULATIONS BOARD • 12 MEMBERS • PART-TIME (4 meetings per year) • Approve Rules of Procedure, used by the Radiocommunication Bureau in applying the provisions of the Radio Regulations and registering frequency assignments made by Member States; • Addresses matters referred by the Bureau which cannot be resolved through application of the Radio Regulations and Rules of Procedure; • Considers reports of unresolved interference investigations carried out by the Bureau at the request of one or more administrations and formulates Recommendations; • Provides advice to Radiocommunication Conferences and the Radiocommunication Assemblies. • The Director of the Bureau is the Executive Secretary of the RRB.

  39. RADIO ADVISORY GROUP • Review the priorities and strategies adopted in the Sector; • Monitor progress of the work of the Study Groups; • Recommend measures for fostering cooperation and coordination with other organizations and with the Other ITU Sectors.
