Military spectrum management

This is because of the high mobility of the joint forces together with the quick reaction, increased number of missions, etc., which need more exact and timely information in all the defined regions and those unpredicted as well.

The success of certain applications (mobile radio-telephony, equipment with low power, digital media, various military systems, etc.)

The terminology, legal and technical considerations, national, regional and international complex regulations and bilateral and multilateral agreements can confuse those less educated in the effort.

Based on the priority and the abilities of national security structures, comes the enforcement for the immediate and maximum fulfillment of their inquiries for electromagnetic spectrum.

To ensure a better and interference-free usage by other users, military forces, through their corresponding structures, take care for the monitoring of the frequency bands defined for them, cooperating and exchanging data with other governmental institutions authorized for spectrum management and other non-governmental users, to identify and detect unauthorized transmissions and illegal interferences.

The cooperation of two or more forces together, with different training and organization and without appropriate frequency planning, brings failure of command, control, and communications.

The realizations of combined and joint operations, in alliance or coalitions, are closely connected to communications and information systems.

The normal frequency management in military forces is based on policies, guides, procedures, organizational and technical manuals.

The preparation, their harmonization with international, regional and national regulations and adherence to technological developments is a continuous task that requires time to be realized from proper military structures.

Frequency managers have to take into consideration technical capabilities and the equipment limit for functioning of the systems in accordance with operational requirements.

In case of overloaded frequency bands, the military forces are obliged to foresee some interference and to accept some damage in the normal operation of their communications systems.
