Overvier on the regulatory body for the operation and design for radar systems

In the recent years many of the bands used by radars have been targeted for additional sharing by other radiocommunication services. The presentation aims to raise the awareness regarding the regulatory situation of radar systems and the characteristics to be taken into account when undertaking sharing studies with radar systems and systems in other services.

The presentation will give an overview of the definitions and services used by radars for different applications as well as the regulatory prerequisites to be observed in the relation to the radio regulations. In addition a broad overview will be given on the main frequency bands available for the operation of radars and a list of ITU-R Recommendations to be observed regarding sharing studies and operational and technical characteristics for radar systems will be presented.
