Notice No. DGTP-008-00Industry Canada Radiocommunication Act Notice No. DGTP-008-00 — Proposed Revisions to the Canadian Table of Frequency Allocations This Notice invites comments on proposals for the revision of the Canadian Table of Frequency Allocations as outlined in the consultation paper under the above title. Background The International Telecommunication Union (ITU) adopts a Table of Frequency Allocations as part of the International Radio Regulations. This International Table allocates radio frequency spectrum to various combinations of radio services and is revised on a periodic basis along with other parts of the international regulations. The Canadian Table of Frequency Allocations is derived from the International Table of Frequency Allocations adopted by the ITU. The Canadian Table selects those radio services required to meet Canadian needs and also specifies, by Canadian footnote, any additional provisions for use of those services in Canada. Industry Canada revises the Canadian Table on a periodic basis normally following an ITU World Radiocommunication Conference (WRC). The WRC-97 Conference, which met in October/November 1997, adopted a number of changes to the frequency allocations in the International Table. The Conference dealt with a large number of issues including the consolidation of the various mobile satellite services and the allocation of spectrum to the Earth Sciences services. The resulting changes to the International Table demand the consideration of several issues on a domestic basis. The referenced Consultation Paper presents these issues and makes proposals for revision to the Canadian Table. This document is available electronically on the Internet at the following address:
