Spectrum
Spectrum is the range of electromagnetic frequencies used for communication, sensing, and other radio-related functions. It is the underlying resource for wireless systems.
Concept/Framework
Spectrum Coordination
Spectrum Coordination is the planning and management of radio spectrum use to reduce interference and allow compatible services to operate. It aligns technical and regulatory use of frequency resources.
Operations
Spectrum Operations
The general operational practice of managing spectrum resources — allocation tracking, coordination with adjacent users and regulators, interference monitoring and resolution, and regulatory compliance — across telecommunications operators and any…

Stateful Inspection
Stateful Inspection is security inspection that evaluates traffic in the context of an existing connection or session state. It uses remembered context to guide policy.
Software
Station Keeping
Station Keeping is the operational process of maintaining a spacecraft or satellite within its assigned orbital position and attitude limits through periodic maneuvers and corrections.
