3.5   ITU‑R RECOMMENDATIONS AND REPORTS
ITU‑R Recommendations constitute a set of standards previously known as CCIR Recommendations. They are the result of studies undertaken by Radiocommunication Study Groups on:
	the use of the radio‑frequency spectrum in terrestrial and space radiocommunication including the use of satellite orbits;
	the characteristics and performance of radio systems, except the interconnection of radio systems in public communication networks and the performance required for these interconnections which are part of the ITU‑T Recommendations;
	the operation of radio stations;
	the radiocommunication aspects of distress and safety matters.
ITU‑R Recommendations are divided into Series according to the subject areas they cover as follows:
Series	Subject area
	BO	Broadcasting‑satellite service (sound and television)
	BR	Sound and television recording
	BS	Broadcasting service (sound)
	BT 	Broadcasting service (television)
	F	Fixed service
	IS	Inter‑service sharing and compatibility
	M	Mobile, radiodetermination, amateur and related satellite services
	PI	Propagation in ionized media
	PN	Propagation in non‑ionized media
	RA	Radioastronomy
	S	Fixed‑satellite service
	SA	Space applications
	SF	Frequency sharing betwen the fixed-satellite service and the fixed service
	SM	Spectrum management techniques
	SNG	Satellite news gathering
	TF	Time signals and frequency standards emissions
	V	Vocabulary and related subjects
There are currently 594 ITU‑R Recommendations in force. A list of all
individual ITU‑R Recommendations is published at least once a year, in English, French and Spanish (available free of charge).
ITU‑R Recommendations are progressively being posted on TIES and will be accessible by subscribers to the ITU‑R Recommendations Online service which will be announced later in 1995. For further information, please contact the ITU Sales Service.

4.3   ITU‑T RECOMMENDATIONS
The ITU‑T Recommendations developed by the Telecommunication Standardization Sector (formerly CCITT) constitute the basis for international telecommunications standards. These are the final results of studies on technical, operating and tariff questions with the objective of standardizing telecommunications on a world‑wide basis, including interconnection of radio systems in public telecommunication networks and on the performance required for these interconnections.
From being published every four years in the CCITT Books, new and revised ITU‑T Recommendations are now being made available individually and progressively throughout the four‑year study cycle, as soon as they are prepared in ITU‑T Study Groups and approved by ITU Members.
The annoucement of each new or revised ITU‑T Recommendation is made through the ITU Newsletter, the Notifications, and the Catalogue of ITU‑T Recommendations. There exist three complimentary formats of the ITU‑T Recommendations available for sale: the paper version, the CD‑ROM and Online.
There are currently over 2,000 ITU‑T Recommendations in force, of which 1120 come from the fascicles and volumes of the CCITT Blue Book (IXth Plenary Assembly in Melbourne in 1988). New and revised ITU‑T Recommendations are published in individual fascicles by Recommendation number. Prices for individually published ITU‑T Recommendation are based on the number of pages. A few Recommendations containing software are distributed on diskettes.
Customers who wish to receive further details and information related to the availability and price of these Recommendations should refer to the Catalogue of ITU‑T Recommendations (1st edition, 1995), which contains a comprehensive description of all the series as well as the ordering facilities. This Catalogue is available in English only on request from the ITU Sales Service and is free of charge. It is also available online via Internet.

ITU‑T Recommendations on CD‑ROM
On‑going series on a yearly subscription basis.
The ITU‑T Recommendations published on CD‑ROM (compact disc) contain a growing number of new or revised Recommendations approved since the publication of the Blue Book of the former CCITT in 1989. The disc includes more than 500 Recommendations of the ITU Telecommunication Standardization Sector. Issues are published quarterly and contain all the previous plus some 60 or 70 additional Recommendations, as the approval of the Recommendations is a continuous process. The compact disc contains the full text of the Recommendations in structured text format, as well as diagrams, equations and tables as raster graphic images (CCITT Group 4 facsimile format). The whole collection of text is fully searchable with the CD Answer HyperText retrieval software (from Dataware Technologies, Inc.) provided with the product. A dynamic table of contents, extensive cross‑references and other hypertext facilities make the product highly usable. Any part of the text and any image can be printed with a LaserJet II, III or a compatible printer, as well as exported to the user’s hard disk.

4057   Application of computers and microprocessors to the construction, installation and protection of telecommunication cables
1994 (SG VI)
The present publication, prepared by CCITT Study Group VI (presently ITU‑T Study Group 6), describes the application of sensors and microprocessors for various requirements of outside plant. Examples of applications are also given. Many countries are expanding their outside facilities for ever‑growing and increasingly sophisticated field of telecommunication services. It has become quite important therefore to maintain the outside plant in good order economically. To achieve this goal, efforts have to be concentrated on an effective and systematic way for design, construction, installation and protection of telecommunications outside plant. As a result of recent developments of technologies for sensing and microprocessors, it has now become possible to introduce these technologies to more effectively achieve above objectives.

What is the ITU?
Founded in Paris in 1865 as the International Telegraph Union, the International Telecommunication Union took its present name in 1934 and became a specialized agency of the United Nations in 1947.
The ITU is an intergovernmental organization, within which the public and private sectors cooperate for the development of telecommunications. The ITU adopts international regulations and treaties governing all terrestrial and space uses of the frequency spectrum as well as the use of the geostationary-satellite orbit, within which countries adopt their national legislation. It also develops standards to facilitate the interconnection of telecommunication systems on a worldwide scale regardless of the type of technology used. Spearheading telecommunications development
on a world scale, the ITU fosters the development of tele-communications in developing countries, by establishing medium-term development policies and strategies in consultation with other partners in the sector and by providing specialized technical assistance in the areas of telecommunication policies, the choice and transfer of technologies, management, financing of investment projects and mobilization of resources, the installation and maintenance of networks, the management of human resources as well as research and development.
In essence, the Union’s mission covers the following domains:
	a technical domain:  to promote the development and efficient operation of telecommunication facilities, in order to improve the efficiency of telecommunication services, their usefulness, and their general availability to the public;
	a development domain:  to promote and offer technical assistance to developing countries in the field of telecommunications, to promote the mobilization of the human and financial resources needed to develop tele-communications, and to promote the extension of the benefits of new telecommunications technologies to people everywhere;
	a policy domain:  to promote, at the international level, the adoption of a broader approach to the issues of telecommunications in the global information economy and society.
As at 30 January 1995, the ITU comprised 184 Member States and 363 members (scientific and industrial companies, public and private operators, broadcasters, regional/international organizations) to the three sectors.
What does the ITU consist of?
The Union comprises: 
	a plenipotentiary conference which is the supreme authority of the Union and meets every four years to adopt the strategic plan and adopt the fundamental policies of the organization, and decide on the organization and activities of the Union
	the Council, composed of 46 Members of the Union (representing 25% of the Union’s membership), and which acts on behalf of the Plenipotentiary Conference and meets annually to consider broad telecommunication policy issues in order to ensure that the Union’s policies and strategies fully respond to the constantly changing telecommunication environment. The Council is also responsible for ensuring the efficient coordination of the work of the Union and the approval of budgets.
	world conferences on international telecommunications, which meet according to needs, to establish the general principles which relate to the provision and operation of international telecommunications services offered to the public as well as the underlying international telecommunication transport means used to provide such services; they also set the rules applicable to administrations and operators in respect of international telecommunications
	a Radiocommunication Sector
	a Telecommunication Standardization Sector 
	a Telecommunications Development Sector
	a General Secretariat
Each sector operates through a Bureau located at ITU Headquarters in addition to the General Secretariat.

World Conferences on International Telecommunications
World Conferences on International Telecommunications are convened periodically to review and revise the International Telecommunications Regulations which apply to administrations and operators for international telecommunications. They establish the general principles for the provision and operation of international telecommunications services offered to the public as well as the underlying transport means used to provide those services.
Radiocommunication
The role of the Radiocommunication Sector is to ensure the rational, equitable, efficient and economical use of the radio-frequency spectrum by all radiocommunication services, including those using the geostationary-satellite orbit and carry out studies without limit of frequency range on the basis of which recommendations are adopted.
The legislative and policy functions of the Radiocommunication Sector are performed by World and Regional Radiocommunication Conferences and Radiocommunication Assemblies supported by study groups
Standardization 
The duties of the Telecommunication Standardization Sector are to study technical, operating, and tariff questions and to issue recommendations on them with a view to standardizing telecommunications on a world-wide basis, including recommendations on interconnection of radio systems in public telecommunication networks and on the performance required for these interconnections. Technical or operating questions specifically related to radiocommunication come within the purview of the Radiocommunication Sector.
The legislative and policy functions of the Telecommunication Standardization Sector fall within the mandate of World Telecommunication Standardization Conferences supported by study groups.
Telecommunications Standardization Study Groups are groups of experts in which administrations and public/private sector entities participate. Their focus of work is on standardization of telecommunication services, operation, performance and maintenance of equipment, systems, networks and services, tariffs principles and accounting methods. Although they are not binding, ITU-T Recommendations are generally complied with because they guarantee the interconnectivity of networks and technically enable services to be provided on a world-wide scale.
Development
The role of the Telecommunication Development Sector is to discharge the Union’s dual responsibility as a United Nations specialized agency and executing agency for
implementing projects under the United Nations development system or other funding arrangements. The aim is to facilitate and enhance telecommunications development by offering, organizing and coordinating technical cooperation and assistance activities.
The policy functions of the Telecommunication Development Sector are fulfilled by World and Regional Telecommunication Development Conferences supported by study groups.

General Secretariat
In addition to handling all the administrative and financial aspects of the Union’s activities, including provision of computer services, the work of the General Secretariat essentially covers:
	preparation of reports on the changes in the telecommunications environment with proposals relating to the Union’s future policies and strategies
	the publication and distribution of information ontelecommunication matters;
	the organization and provision of logistic support to the Union’s conferences;
	the coordination of the work of the Union with the United Nations and other international organizations;
	relations with Members, industry and users
	organization of the World and Regional TELECOM Exhibitions and Forums
	information to the press, corporate and individual users of telecommunications, academic institutions and the general public
	electronic information exchange and access to ITU documents, publications and databases.
