The data elements follow recommendation SM.667 – National S.M. Data. The elements are based on Table II of Annex IV of handbook on Spectrum Management and computer-aided techniques.
The main objectives and functions of IRIS are:
• Spectrum planning
• Licensing including:
Users registration
Equipment standardization and type approval
Station licensing
• International coordination and Notification
• Complaints/interference handling
• Billing and fee collection
IRIS will carry out the spectrum management functions with a high degree of efficiency and automation to support the proceedings, the issuing of reports, the technical analyses, and the supervision involved in such management.
