INTRODUCTION
The radio spectrum supports a wide range of business, personal, industrial, scientific, medical research and cultural activities, both public and private. Communications are foremost among those activities and, together with other radio services, are increasingly important to economic and social development. Spectrum monitoring is one of four key spectrum management functions which include spectrum planning, spectrum engineering and spectrum authorization. Spectrum monitoring helps spectrum managers to plan and use frequencies, avoid incompatible usage, and identify sources of harmful interference.
