Abstract :
Three major allocation issues involving the broadcasting and broadcasting-satellite services that will be discussed at the 1992 World Administrative Radio Conference (WARC-92) are examined. They are expansion of frequencies for conventional high-frequency (shortwave) broadcasting, new frequencies for both satellite and terrestrial digital audio (radio) broadcasting to handheld and automobile receivers, and new frequencies for studio-quality high-definition television broadcasting from satellites. The bands that are viable candidates for these services are discussed.<>
