Practical, no-fluff explainers written for RF engineers and regulatory teams who deal with the ITU coordination process directly.
Realistic timelines for ITU satellite filing and coordination โ from advance publication to bringing a network into use, including NGSO deployment milestones.
The most common ways a first-pass interference screening goes wrong โ and how to avoid them before they cost you a surprise coordination request.
EPFD limits under Article 22 of the ITU Radio Regulations govern how NGSO constellations coexist with GSO satellites. Here's what they are and why they're under active debate.
A practical reference to the letter-designated satellite frequency bands โ what they cover, what they're typically used for, and why the letters aren't official ITU categories.
A plain-language walkthrough of the fields in a BR IFIC satellite filing entry โ administration, notice type, frequency, polarization, EIRP, and orbital data.
Geostationary and non-geostationary satellites are coordinated under different rules at the ITU. Here's what actually changes, and why it matters for interference screening.
ITU filing volumes have grown roughly 5.5x over the past decade, driven by the space economy boom. Here's why that makes continuous monitoring necessary, not optional.
The Bureau's regular publication is where every new satellite frequency filing becomes public. Here's what's actually inside it, and why it matters before you file.
A practical walkthrough of frequency-overlap screening: what to check, when to check it, and why doing it before submission saves months later.
The ITU filing process has several distinct notification stages, each with its own purpose and legal weight. A clear reference for what each one means.
