Radio Regulations (RR)
The Radio Regulations (treaty status) incorporates
the decisions of the World Radiocommunication
Conferences, including all Appendices,
Resolutions, Recommendations and ITU-R
Recommendations incorporated by reference.

• Frequency block allocations to defined radio
  services (Article 5)
• Mandatory or voluntary regulatory procedures
  (coordination, plan modification, notification,
  recording) that are adapted to the allocation
  structure

World Radiocommunication Conferences (WRC)

• Updates the Radio Regulations (treaty status)
• Spectrum Allocation
• Notification procedures
• Administrative and operational procedures
• Adopts Resolutions
• Held every 3-4 years
