Abstract :
The US proposals to, and the decisions of, the 1992 World Administrative Radio Conference (WARC ´92) that relate to mobile and mobile-satellite services are described. Mobile-satellite service (MSS) issues addressed at WARC ´92 include new allocations for low Earth-orbit (LEO) satellite operations, new MSS spectrum allocations, and modifications to current allocations used to support mobile-satellite operations. Allocation issues on the agenda of WARC ´92 that related to the terrestrial mobile services include allocations for mobile services between 1 and 3 GHz, allocations for aeronautical public correspondence, and designation of frequency bands for future public land mobile telecommunications services. A number of proposals which were put forward by the US to support MSS allocations and operations that did not explicitly require allocations to the MSS are discussed.<>
