Tentative agreement was reached today at the ITU World Radiocommunication Conference 2000 on a frequency plan for the proposed Galileo radionavigation-satellite system.
Galileo is a multinational European project that is intended to meet civilian sector needs for radionavigation-satellite applications, including civil aviation. It has been proposed as a supplement to the United States' GPS system and the Russian GLONASS system, both of which were designed principally for military applications.
The target date for bringing Galileo into service is 2008.
