Telemetry Spectrum Encroachment Risk Update: Post-WRC-23 and New Domestic Challenges

Abstract

A review of spectrum issues that can challenge the future use of radio frequency telemetry. The International Consortium for Telemetry Spectrum (ICTS) will present the status of World Radiocommunications Conference items that address telemetry that were considered at the 2023 World Radiocommunication Conference and may be planned for future World Radiocommunications Conferences. International telemetry vendors, suppliers, and users need to be aware of, and potentially engage with their national administrations on these items. The ICTS (www.telemetryspectrum.org) was formed in 1999 and is chartered under the sponsorship of the International Foundation for Telemetering (IFT). The IFT (www.telemetry.org) is a non-profit organization dedicated to serving the professional and technical interests of the telemetering community. This paper provides an update to potential spectrum allocation issues for each telemetry band perceived by the ICTS as of interest to the international telemetering community.
