Validation of Army Spectrum Allocation and Analysis Procedures. Volume I.
Abstract
To maintain a viable defensive posture against potential enemies of the United States, and to compensate for probable numerical deficiencies, the U.S. Department of Defense and its components have long pursued a material development pattern of ever increasing sophistication. The associated communications-electronics (C-E) equipments have likewise increased in complexity, sophistication and occupancy of the electromagnetic spectrum. This has occurred simultaneously with an explosion in industrial and consumer communication-electronics technology with its attendant demands on the spectrum resource. The result is that the communications-electronics equipment experimenter, developer or user is confronted with an increasingly difficult task in obtaining spectrum support for emerging systems and equipment. This is particularly critical when the material is mission essential, and failure or delay may be costly or catastrophic in terms of lost time, material resources, tactical advantages, or even lives.
