The document summarizes federal receiver standards established by the National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA) Manual for various radio services including fixed, mobile, and radar systems. It provides an overview of the receiver parameters covered by the standards such as selectivity, spurious response rejection, and intermodulation rejection. The standards also reference industry standards from organizations like the Telecommunications Industry Association. Additional receiver standards used by federal agencies from groups like the FAA, Coast Guard, and DOT are also mentioned.

Edward Drocella Office of Spectrum Management National Telecommunications and Information Administration U.S. Department of Commerce Federal Receiver Standards • The NTIA Manual of Regulations and Procedures for Federal Radio Frequency Management (NITA Manual) provides receiver standards for mobile systems, fixed systems below 15 GHz, and radar systems.
• Generally the standards include requirements for receiver parameters such as
selectivity, spurious response rejection, and intermodulation rejection.
• Industry developed standards (e.g., Telecommunication Industry
Association) are used when available.
• These receiver standards cover a large percentage of the authorized
frequency assignments in the Government Master File.

4 Other Receiver Standards Used by Federal Agencies • The Federal Aviation Administration publishes Technical Standard Orders that refer to RTCA standards for aviation receivers.
• The Coast Guard uses maritime receiver standards developed by the
International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC).
• The Department of Transportation uses American Society for Testing and
Materials (ASTM) International standard for Intelligent Transportation Service Dedicated Short Range Communications Service in the 5850-5925 MHz band.
