Robert J. Mayher, John K. Lady, and Carl A. Winkler, “Evaluation of Computer-Aided Spectrum Management in Papua New Guinea ,” Technical Memorandum NTIA TM-85-109, February 1985

This report evaluates the spectrum management structure in Papua New Guinea (PNG) and recommends methods to improve spectrum management procedures and computer-aided techniques used by PNG. This evaluation consisted of an on-site visit to the Post a...

David J. Cohen, “Necessary Bandwidth and Spectral Properties of Digital Modulation,” Technical Report NTIA TR-84-168, February 1985

The National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA) and the Interdepartment Radio Advisory Committee (IRAC) require, for their management of the spectrum, technical guidance concerning the necessary bandwidth and spectral character...

“FY 1984 Technical Progress Report,” Technical Progress Report, January 1985

The Institute for Telecommunication Sciences (ITS) is the research and engineering laboratory of the National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA) of the U.S. Department of Commerce (DOC). ITS provides technical support to NTIA in...

William E. Frazier, “Handbook of Radio Wave Propagation Loss (100–10,000 MHz),” Handbook NTIA HB-84-165, December 1984

This handbook is intended to assist in manual analysis techniques that must be used when an automated analysis is not possible. It provides estimates of radio wave propagation loss between transmitting and receiving antennas above the assumed smooth...

D. M. Cerni, “Standards in Process: Foundations and Profiles of ISDN and OSI Studies,” Technical Report NTIA TR-84-170, December 1984

Telecommunication and computer technologies are merging, stimulating such global communication projects as the Integrated Services Digital Network (ISDN) and the Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) Reference Model. The systems of standards needed to ...

John M. Harman and Raymond D. Jennings, “Earth Station Antenna Sidelobe Characteristics,” Technical Report NTIA TR-84-164, December 1984

Measured analog data showing gain as a function of angle away from the mainbeam (maximum gain) axis have been obtained for 22 types of reflector antennas designed for operation at 4 GHz for reception and 6 GHz for transmission. The antennas ranged in...
