Global Maritime Distress and Safety System (GMDSS) Handbook 2018 I CONTENTS
FOREWORD This handbook has been produced by the Australian Maritime Safety Authority (AMSA), and is intended for use on ships that are: • compulsorily equipped with GMDSS radiocommunication installations in accordance with the requirements of the International Convention for the Safety of Life at Sea Convention 1974 (SOLAS) and Commonwealth or State government marine legislation • voluntarily equipped with GMDSS radiocommunication installations. It is the recommended textbook for candidates wishing to qualify for the Australian GMDSS General Operator’s Certificate of Proficiency. This handbook replaces the tenth edition of the GMDSS Handbook published in September 2013, and has been amended to reflect: • changes to regulations adopted by the International Telecommunication Union (ITU) World Radiocommunications Conference (2015) • changes to Inmarsat services • an updated AMSA distress beacon registration form • changes to various ITU Recommendations • changes to the publications published by the ITU • developments in Man Overboard (MOB) devices • clarification of GMDSS radio log procedures • general editorial updating and improvements. Procedures outlined in the handbook are based on the ITU Radio Regulations, on radio procedures used by Australian Maritime Communications Stations and Satellite Earth Stations in the Inmarsat network. Careful observance of the procedures covered by this handbook is essential for the efficient exchange of communications in the marine radiocommunication service, particularly where safety of life at sea is concerned. Special attention should be given to those sections dealing with distress, urgency, and safety. Operators of radiocommunications equipment on vessels not equipped with GMDSS installations should refer to the Marine Radio Operators Handbook published by the Australian Maritime College, Launceston, Tasmania, Australia. No provision of this handbook or the ITU Radio Regulations prevents the use, by a ship in distress, of any means at its disposal to attract attention, make known its position and obtain help. -

Space Science and Meteorology Spectrum Allocations in the UK
Introduction ‘Space science’ is an umbrella term that covers both Earth observation and space related scientific research. Earth observation (EO) satellites observe the earth and its atmosphere, using visible light or radio spectrum from a unique vantage point. The information it provides is used for a wide range of purposes including weather forecasting, environmental monitoring, climate change research as well as a number of commercial activities. Radio astronomy and space research contribute to our knowledge of space and the evolution of the universe. The following services fall under this category: • Earth Exploration Satellite Service (EESS) Space Research Service (SRS) Space Operation Service (SOS) Radio Astronomy Service (RAS) Meteorological Satellite Service (MetSat) Meteorological Aids Service (Met-Aids) Radiolocation Service Note: this only for wind profiler and weather radars) Standard Time and Frequency signals) These services can be split in two broad categories: passive services (RAS, EESS and Space Research Service), that measure naturally- occurring radiation often at very low power levels. This information provides useful data to help further understand the Earth and universe. The frequency bands are often determined by the specific physical properties being investigated (e.g. molecular resonance). active services that make use of a variety of technologies (e.g. radiodetermination) to carryout measurements, observations or transfer the collected data. These active applications are relatively less sensitive to interference compared to passive sensors. Given the low levels of radiation being monitored these services often use very sensitive receivers. In most cases the equipment is not able to discriminate between these natural radiations and man-made radiations. For this reason, a number of bands have been harmonised across the world for the use by passive services only. -
