Joint Spectrum Center

Abstract

The Defense Spectrum Organization’s (DSO) Joint Spectrum Center (JSC) designs, develops, and maintains DoD automated spectrum management systems, evaluation tools, and databases. The JSC databases are the prime sources of information for DoD use of the Electromagnetic (EM) spectrum. The JSC provides technical measurement and analysis in support of DoD spectrum policy decisions to ensure the development, acquisition, and operational deployment of systems are compatible with other spectrum dependent systems operating within the same EM environment. Additional focus is centered on improving future warfighter EM spectrum utilization through technological innovation accomplished by researching, studying, and steering the direction of research and development (R&D) emerging technology efforts from a spectrum perspective. DSO’s Global Electromagnetic Spectrum Information System (GEMSIS) is a net centric capability that will provide commanders with an increased common picture of spectrum situational awareness of friendly and hostile forces while transparently deconflicting competing mission requirements for spectrum use. This capability will enable the transformation from the current preplanned and static assignment strategy into autonomous and adaptive spectrum operations.
