Abstract: The National Telcommunications and Information Administration's (NTIA) web-based system will collect specific identification information from applicants seeking to operate in the 70-80-90 GHz radio frequency (RF) band that is shared on a co-primary basis by federal and non-federal users. The web-based system will provide a means for non-federal applicants to rapidly determine the availability of RF spectrum in a specific location, or the need for detailed frequency coordination with the U.S. Government of a specific newly proposed assignment within the shared portions of the radio.
