The ITU Radiocommunication Assembly considering hat the Radio Regulations (RR) define over 40 different radio services; that narrowly defined services can unnecessarily restrict flexibility and limit spectrum utilization; that new technologies are often capable of providing several fully compatible radiocommunication services from a single technology platform; that any changes in the current frequency allocation structure must be fully tested and proven before gaining acceptance on a global basis; that such testing may not always be possible in accordance with Article 5 of the RR.
