Dr. V. Timofeev is a highly qualified specialist in the field of radio-frequency spectrum management and planning at both national and international levels.

In 1961, after graduating from the Moscow Electrotechnical Institute of Communications, Mr. Timofeev joined the State Radio Research Institute (NIIR) as an engineer responsible for testing and developing different types of microwave antennas.

Having been promoted first to the post of senior engineer (1963), then to the post of chief designer (1966) and senior research fellow (1968), Mr. Timofeev took an active part in the development of various microwave communication systems and the "Orbita" domestic satellite system.

From December 1970 to August 1974, Mr. Timofeev worked in the IFRB secretariat as an engineer dealing with the technical examination of frequency assignments to terrestrial and space services, including the coordination of space and earth stations.

Upon his return to Moscow in 1974, Mr. Timofeev was appointed Head of Division at the State Radio Research Institute (NIIR), responsible for studies on frequency sharing and the coordination of space and terrestrial radio systems. In 1978 he was promoted to the post of Head of EMC, Radio-Frequency Spectrum Management and International Cooperation Department, in the same Institute.

The EMC Department under Mr. Timofeev's leadership conducted studies on radiowave propagation and frequency planning and developed national EMC standards and technical terms of reference for numerous international conferences and meetings.

For a number of years he was responsible for the international coordination of various national space systems and headed Russian delegations to numerous coordination meetings with other administrations.

In March 1992, the Government of the Russian Federation appointed Mr. Timofeev, Deputy Chairman of the State Commission on Frequency Management of the Russian Federation and, in July 1997, Deputy Chairman of the State Committee for Communications and Informatization of the Russian Federation.
