Electromagnetic Spectrum: Suhail Q. Mir

The document discusses the electromagnetic spectrum and frequency allocation to various bands. It begins with an overview of the electromagnetic spectrum and its role as a transmission medium. It then provides details on frequency ranges allocated for different uses such as radio, TV, mobile services, and satellite communications in India and other countries. Frequency bands are assigned to mobile carriers in India and the US. The document also discusses India's 2014 spectrum auction results in terms of operator-wise and circle-wise allocations in the 1800 MHz and 900 MHz bands.

Frequency Allocation
The National Frequency Allocation Plan (NFAP)
forms the basis for development and manufacturing
of wireless equipment and spectrum utilization in
the country. Frequency bands allocated to various
types of radio services in India are as follows.

i) 0-87.5 MHz is used for marine and aeronautical


navigation, short and medium wave radio,
amateur (ham) radio and cordless phones.

ii) 87.5-108 MHz is used for FM radio broadcasts


iii) 109- 173MHz Used for Satellite communication,
aeronautical navigation and outdoor broadcast vans

iv) 174-230 MHz not allocated.

v) 230—450 MHz Used for Satellite communication,


aeronautical navigation and outdoor broadcast vans

vi) 450- 585. MHz Not allocated.

vii) 585-698 MHz Used for TV broadcast

viii) 698-806 MHz not allocated.

ix) 806-960 Used by GSM and CDMA mobile services


x) 960-1710 Aeronautical and space communication

xi) 1710- 1930 Used for GSM mobile services

xii) 1930-2010 – MHz Used by defense forces

xiii) 2010-2025 – MHz Not allocated

xiv) 2025-2110 – MHz Satellite and space communications

xv) 2110-2170 – MHz Not allocated

xvi) 2170-2300 – MHz Satellite and space communications
