IUCAF 2019 annual report

摘要

The Scientific Committee on Frequency Allocations for Radio Astronomy and Space Science, IUCAF, was formed in 1960 by its adhering Scientific Unions, IAU, URSI, and COSPAR, at the behest of URSI. The IUCAF brief is to study and coordinate the requirements of radio-frequency spectrum allocations for passive radio sciences — radio astronomy, space research, and remote sensing — and to make these requirements known to the national and international bodies that regulate the use of the radio spectrum. IUCAF operates as an Inter-Disciplinary Body under the auspices of the International Science Council (ISC, formerly ICS and ICSU). IUCAF is a Sector Member of the International Telecommunication Union's Radiocommunication Sector (ITU-R), with observer status at the Space Frequency Coordination Group (SFCG). IUCAF is celebrating the 60th anniversary of its founding during 2020.
