General

Joint spectrum management is planning, coordinating, and managing the use of the electromagnetic
spectrum through implementing administrative, engineering, and operational procedures.

In a joint operational environment, the Joint Task Force (JTF) commander authorizes and controls the
use of the electromagnetic battlespace (EMB) by military forces under his command. The JTF
establishes command policy for how the spectrum will be used within its area of responsibility (AOR)
and area of influence (AOI), obtains approval from the proper authorities for use of the spectrum, and
ensures that the assigned military forces are authorized sufficient spectrum to execute their designated
missions. To accomplish these responsibilities, the JTF commander establishes a JTF Spectrum
Management Element (JSME), normally under the cognizance of the J-6, to support JTF spectrum
management needs. See Appendix A – Joint Task Force Structure.

Purpose

The Joint Spectrum Center (JSC) created the Joint Spectrum Management (JSM) Handbook as quick
reference guide for JTF spectrum-management operations. The JTF spectrum manager can use the
handbook during training exercises and for contingency operations when forces are deployed in a JTF
operational environment. This handbook provides examples, resources, and references that may be
helpful to spectrum managers.

The JSM Handbook is not an authoritative document and, therefore, does not replace the existing
Chairman, Joint Chiefs-of-Staff (CJCS) instructions and manuals or the Combatant Command’s policies
and procedures for the spectrum community. This handbook was written based on the Joint Staff
documents listed below:

• CJCSI 3320.01 – Electromagnetic Spectrum Use in Joint Military Operations


• CJCSI 3320.02 – Joint Spectrum Interference Resolution (JSIR)
• CJCSI 3320.03 – Joint Communication-Electronics Operating Instruction (JCEOI)
• CJCSM 3320.01 – Joint Operations in the Electromagnetic Battlespace
• CJCSM 3320.02 – Joint Spectrum Interference Resolution (JSIR)
• Joint Pub 3-51 – Joint Doctrine for Electronic Warfare

Although this handbook emphasizes joint contingency or exercise operations, it also facilitates
integration of JTF operations in any AOR or multinational operation. The information provided in the
handbook can be tailored to fit the situation/mission/contingency in operation. This handbook is to be
used by individuals serving as a JTF spectrum manager and by spectrum-management planners, decision

makers, and spectrum users. It is assumed that users of handbook are trained spectrum managers.

JTF Spectrum Management Lifecycle

The JTF Spectrum Management Lifecycle was developed to provide spectrum managers with a road
map to support both Deliberate and Crisis Action Planning (CAP) and to execute the JTF Operational
Order (OPORD). This lifecycle consists of 12 activities:

1. Define Policy and Guidance


2. Gather Requirements
3. Develop Spectrum Requirements Summary
4. Define the Electromagnetic Battlespace
5. Obtain Spectrum Resources
6. Develop Spectrum Management Plan
7. Nominate and Assign Frequencies
8. Generate the Joint Communications Electronics Operating Instruction (JCEOI)
9. Develop Joint Restricted Frequency List (JRFL)
10. Perform Electronic Warfare (EW) Deconfliction
11. Resolve Interference
12. Report Interference

With the exception of resolving and reporting interference, most of these lifecycle activities are initiated
in the CAP and continue through the execution phase of JTF operations. Two of the activities,
developing a JRFL and performing EW deconfliction, support Information Operations (IO). Some of
these activities are conducted simultaneously, while others must be completed in succession. Most of
these activities entail developing deliverables that will be used in subsequent activities (i.e., the JCEOI
and the JRFL).

1. Define Policy and Guidance


(Initiating the development of the Spectrum Management Plan)

According to CJCSM 3320.01, the JSME establishes JTF-specific guidance for managing, requesting,
coordinating, and assigning electromagnetic spectrum-use, JRFL, JCEOI, and other related spectrum-
management processes. Once a JTF is determined to be the appropriate response to a crisis situation, the
first lifecycle activity is to define (or refine) policy and provide guidance for spectrum use to support the
JTF mission. This activity is independent of any other JTF spectrum management lifecycle activity.

2 FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY


JSC-HDBK-05-001

To accomplish this activity, refer to the Combatant Command’s spectrum management manual or
regulations or instructions, and existing OPLANS and CONPLANS. Two deliverables must be
generated in this activity of the lifecycle: a JTF Spectrum Management Concept and the Spectrum
Requirements Data Call Message.

• JTF Spectrum Management Concept. This concept is the JSME vision of how spectrum-
management operations will best support the JTF mission. It contains assumptions,
considerations, and restrictions that when analyzed together can be used to determine how to
manage the JTF EMB. The concept should be developed using the Combatant Command’s
spectrum management guidance and should include specific instructions required for the JTF and
any additions or modifications to the existing process. This concept is the basis for the JTF
spectrum management plan and, although it is not a formal deliverable to any outside agency or
unit, it should be incorporated into the policy and procedures section of the Spectrum
Requirements Data Call Message.

• JTF Spectrum Requirements Data Call Message. This message (see Appendix I), which
provides policy and guidance to the units and organizations involved in the JTF operation,
includes the following:

- Policy and procedures for requesting frequencies to support spectrum-dependent equipment,


including lead times and format.
- Spectrum management, automation system and configuration information.
- JCEOI Master Net List (MNL) requirements collection process including the need for
identifying nets that require call signs and call words and nets that can share frequencies.
- JRFL submission procedures, including lead times and restrictions.

2. Gather Requirements

According to CJCSM 3320.01, the JSME gathers spectrum requirements from spectrum users and JTF
staff elements of J-2, J-3, and J-6. This lifecycle activity can begin as soon as spectrum-management
guidance has been received and coordination channels have been defined. This activity involves
capturing and documenting potential JTF spectrum-use requirements (both communication and non-
communication systems) identified by JTF components and the JTF staff, as well as undocumented
requirements from sources outside of the spectrum-management coordination chain. Requirements must
be written so they clearly define how forces involved in a variety of contingency operations can be
supported. Spectrum-use requirements must be gathered and entered into the JTF Spectrum
Requirements Database until the JTF stands down.

FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY 3


JSC-HDBK-05-001

Based on the Spectrum Requirements Data Call Message, the JSME directs all units and organizations
supporting the JTF to submit their spectrum requirements and JCEOI MNL. All units are required to
submit their spectrum requests to the Combatant Command’s JFMO or JSME.

3. Develop a Spectrum Requirements Summary

According to CJCSM 3320.0, the JSME develops and distributes spectrum-use plans that can be
evaluated to determine frequency reuse and sharing schemes for specific frequency bands.
Requirements previously gathered must be reformatted to facilitate analysis. The Spectrum
Requirements Summary developed by the JSME is a compilation of the requirements identified in
response to the Spectrum Requirements Data Call Message.

The summary, which is solely for use by the spectrum manager, provides an initial requirements
definition and is the basis for future decisions about efficient spectrum use. The spectrum manager
analyzes the data and draws conclusions about the amount of spectrum needed to support the JTF,
determines the number of different radio services competing for spectrum in the same frequency bands,
identifies the different emissions utilizing a particular band, and develops a plan for frequency sharing.
The spectrum manager may also use the summary to request spectrum from a host nation or to allocate
portions of the spectrum to support emitters utilizing varying bandwidths.

4. Define the Electromagnetic Battlespace

According to CJCSM 3320.01, the JSME creates and maintains a common spectrum-use database that
will be used to plan, coordinate, and control the EMB.

Joint military operations require a common, single, authoritative source for spectrum-use information on
all friendly (military and civilian), on enemy forces (when possible), and on neutral and civil emitters
and receivers to achieve and manage successful joint-spectrum use. This information source, the EMB
database, must be accessible, accurate and current. This database, which digitally depicts the EMB, is
the basis for all JTF spectral interaction analyses. Defining the EMB not only requires creating a
database of frequency assignments but also identifying factors that affect signal propagation, like
environmental characteristics and terrain.

The JSME must first define its AOI and its environmental characteristics, locate necessary terrain data,
and then locate the spectrum data to create a database of the known spectrum-use information. When
working with allied, United Nations (UN), or coalition forces, the JSME should obtain similar
information from each force to maximize effective use and control of the spectrum throughout its AOR.
4 FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY
JSC-HDBK-05-001

This activity also entails updating and maintaining the newly created EMB database as well as adding all
JTF frequency assignments. Because of the amount and complexity of spectrum-use information
typically involved in joint military operations, modern computer and communications networking
systems are needed to analyze, distribute, and maintain EMB data. Defining the EMB is an ongoing
activity until the JTF stands down.

5. Obtain Spectrum Resources

According to CJCSM 3320.01, the JSME, via the J-5, will obtain spectrum resources by coordinating
with the spectrum authority of the host nation(s) or coalition forces involved in its operation. These
resources can be requested for exercises or most Military Operations Other Than War (MOOTW). For
operations that preclude prior coordination with a host nation, such as forced entry, the spectrum
resources must be determined by evaluating the background EME. If this evaluation is required, it is
essential to establish well-defined spectrum requirements and to ensure that the data being entered into
the EMB database is current. This activity continues until the JTF stands down.

Documents generated via previous lifecycle activities can be used to determine the amount of spectrum
needed to support the JTF mission. The Spectrum Requirements Summary can be used to quantify the
amount of spectrum needed and to identify the different radio services and emissions operating within
each frequency band. Spectrum resources are normally created and stored as one or more allotment
plans.

6. Develop the Spectrum Management Plan

According to CJCSM 3320.01, the JSME establishes JTF-specific guidance for managing, requesting,
coordinating, and assigning electromagnetic spectrum-use, JRFL, JCEOI, and other spectrum-related
processes. Additionally, the JSME is the focal point for inclusion of spectrum-use considerations in the
Joint Operations Planning and Execution System (JOPES) and provides administrative and technical
support for military spectrum use.

This activity entails developing a Spectrum Management Plan that will provide guidance for all JTF
spectrum-management functions and that will enable effective and efficient use of the spectrum
resources available. In developing this plan, the JTF spectrum manager will be guided by personal
experience, advice from the JFMO, the JSC, other spectrum managers, and other spectrum-management
sources including the Spectrum Management Concept, as well as existing spectrum-management policy
and guidance, previous operations and exercises, and after action reports (AAR).

FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY 5


JSC-HDBK-05-001

The plan should specify how spectrum-management interactions will be conducted, how information
will be exchanged, and how coordination will handled, and will provide a format for deliverable
products. It will also document how to address interference problems, identify JSIR reporting
procedures, and suggest resolutions to spectrum-management problems. This plan is to be continuously
evaluated for possible improvement and will eventually become part of Annex K to the OPLANS.

7. Nominate and Assign Frequencies

According to CJCSM 3320.01, the JSME has the responsibility and the authority to issue frequency
assignments or allotments. The JSME, however, may delegate this authority to components to provide
the maximum latitude and flexibility in support of combat operations. The JTF spectrum manager may
assign frequencies or delegate (decentralize) assignment authority, using frequency pools (allotment
plans) to the JTF component spectrum managers so they can assign frequencies.

Assigning frequencies includes updating the EMB. The frequency assignment database, the EMB, is the
most important resource the spectrum manager has available. It is the basis for nominating interference-
free assignments, analyzing the effect of EW operations, and identifying and resolving interference
issues.

To decentralize assignment authority, all temporary frequency assignments data must be exchanged with
the SPECTRUM XXI regional server, so these assignments can be included in other spectrum
manager’s nominations or interference analysis calculations. This lifecycle activity depends upon the
available spectrum resource previously established and the restrictions set forth in the Spectrum
Management Plan.

8. Generate Joint Communications-Electronic Operating Instructions

According to CJCSI 3320.03, Combatant Commands responsible for a specific geographic AOR will
generate a JCEOI. As stated in this directive, JCEOI development and distribution is a J-6
responsibility; however, normally this lifecycle activity is delegated to the JSME because the JSME
provides the frequency resource for the JTF and usually has personnel trained in using JACS. The JTF
Commander, acting as the Combatant Command’s representative, assumes the duties (listed below)
required to develop a JCEOI.

• Establish command-specific policy and guidance for development and use of the JCEOI that
uniquely applies to the JTF AOR and command structure (See Appendix G).
• Function as the controlling authority for JTF JCEOIs.

6 FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY


JSC-HDBK-05-001

• Establish a JCEOI management function to control the JCEOI process, structure, and procedures
to support planned and ongoing operations.
- Establish procedures for deconfliction of call signs and call words within the JTF AOR.
- Establish a liaison with appropriate foreign military and multilateral forces (e.g., United
Nations (UN) and North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO)) operating as part of
combined operations is established to ensure that unique requirements are met as part of a
Combined JCEOI.

The JCEOI, a two-part document, should be generated and completed prior to the deployment of forces
in support of JTF operations. Part one contains a directory of radio nets or units and their associated
frequencies, call signs, call words, and net IDs listed by time period. JCEOI MNLs should have been
submitted by the JTF components during the Gather Requirements activity. Part two, contains
supplemental procedures for electronic, visual, and verbal interactions (such as sign/countersigns),
smoke/pyrotechnics, and suffix/expanders. (See Appendix Q and R)

9. Develop Joint Restricted Frequency List

According to CJCSM 3320.01, the JSME prepares and combines J-2, J-3, J-6, and JTF component
inputs to develop a JRFL. Although the J-6 is tasked to develop, distribute, and periodically update the
JRFL, this lifecycle activity is normally accomplished by the JSME. Developing a JRFL requires the
consolidated effort of the JTF staff organizations and functional/service components.

The JRFL, which contains a timely and geographically oriented list of functions, nets, and frequencies
requiring protection from friendly EW, is created for the IO Cell and the Electronic Warfare Officer
(EWO). The JRFL is a J-3 document used to protect JTF command and control communication nets,
enemy communication nets being exploited, and safety-of-life frequencies being used by the JTF and
local civil noncombatants during the EW deconfliction process. The J-3 is ultimately responsible for
approving the JRFL and arbitrating conflicts arising among the J-2, J-3, and J-6. See Appendix C
and D.

The JRFL is developed prior to initiating JTF operations and continues during the operational phase of
the JTF.

JSC-HDBK-05-001

10. Perform Electronic Warfare Deconfliction

According to CJCSM 3320.01, the JSME participates in the IO Cell by representing spectrum-
management issues. This life cycle activity, which supports the IO activities of the JTF, is performed as
part of the EW planning process and includes providing an EW deconfliction analysis. Information from
the JRFL, JCEOI, and EMB is required for the deconfliction analysis.

The EW analysis is time-sensitive and is produced on an as-needed basis. The EWO identifies potential
planned jamming missions and requests that the JSME perform the EW analysis. Information from the
JRFL, JCEOI, and EMB is required for the deconfliction analysis.

This analysis helps the IO Cell determine the potential impact of friendly EW operations on friendly
forces (i.e., fratricide). The IO Cell will have a better understanding of the proposed EW mission's affect
on communication nets, on JTF systems, on enemy communications nets being exploited, and on
possible safety-of-life situations. If that potential exists, the J-3 or EWO decides if the benefits of the
jamming mission outweigh the dangers of the potential fratricide.

Resolve Interference

According to CJCSM 3320.01, the JSME analyzes and, when possible, mitigates or resolves, incidents
of unacceptable electromagnetic interference (EMI).

Interference stems from many different sources (e.g., unauthorized users, faulty nomination criteria, lack
of timely data exchanges, or equipment problems). Interference problems should be resolved locally if
possible. Multiple interference problems may indicate that there are errors in the JTF Spectrum
Management Plan that need to be corrected. The EMB must be examined closely to determine if
something was overlooked or miscalculated by the automated spectrum management system.

Report Interference

According to CJCSM 3320. 02, the JSME must develop and maintain an Interference Database to
document the results of EMI incidents. This final lifecycle activity includes documentation of possible
solutions for mitigation or resolution, information on unit discipline and training deficiencies, as well as
updates to the database. See Appendix F.

8 FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY


JSC-HDBK-05-001

Combating harmful interference is a constant challenge. In JTF operations, there are too many emitters
operating in too many places to preclude all interference. Another problem is the human element: there
is always someone who does not get the proper information, transposes numbers, or disregards
established procedures and operates a spectrum-dependent system without authorization.

The interference database is a valuable repository for all JTF spectrum managers. Interference reporting
and tracking provide a historical reference for resolving future EMI. Using this database, spectrum
managers can study past interference incidents, examine how these incidents were resolved, and
possibly identify causes for subsequent interference.

JSC-HDBK-05-001 APPENDIX D

APPENDIX D – JOINT RESTRICTED FREQUENCY LIST PROCESS


The JRFL is a tool used by EW personnel to protect critical spectrum dependent systems from friendly
electronic attack (EA). The term Joint in the title, Joint Restricted Frequency List, indicates that more
than one US military service (Army, Navy, Air Force, or Marine Corps) is involved in the operation.
For operations involving more than US forces, a Combined JRFL is required and should include (and
protect) critical spectrum-dependent systems of coalition and allied forces.

The JRFL identification and building process begins at the lowest unit level, works upward through the
military service chains-of-command, and is consolidated at the Joint Force Commander. This process is
shown in the diagram on the next page.

JTF components are required to nominate candidate JRFL frequencies based upon their operations.
Using the figure below as a guide for the Joint process, Service components equivalent to the J-3 and J-2
are responsible for identifying critical spectrum-dependent functions and nominating the associated
frequencies for the JRFL.

• Operations use the JRFL to deconflict EW missions from friendly (Blue Force) operations.
• Intelligence (INTEL) Agencies use the JRFL for Intel net protection and enemy exploitation.
• Operations, Intel, and Communication agencies use the JRFL for information operations.

2. GENERAL

This appendix provides guidance and direction for managing the electromagnetic battlespace (EMB)
support operation JTF "X." In order to efficiently manage the spectrum for the number of users
within the AOR and make assignments to these forces, assignment authority will be centralized. The
JFMO/JSME will coordinate all requests from the forces with the nation "X" and allies. Component
spectrum managers will submit requests for frequencies, in Standard Frequency Action Format
(SFAF), to the JFMO/JSME, and will be responsible for assignment and allotment of all spectrum
assets once approved.

3. CONCEPT OF SUPPORT
All Phases. Spectrum managers of the major components operating under JTF "X" will
consolidate requirements obtained from subordinate units and forward these requirements to the
JFMO/JSME.
Automation. The automated system used for database management will be the most current
version of SPECTRUM XXI. The JCEOI will be developed using the Joint Automated CEOI
Software (JACS) for Joint CEOI (JCEOI) generation.
Transmission of frequency requests and assignments will be by SPECTRUM XXI via data
exchange over SIPRNET for US Forces. Coalition Forces will transmit frequency requests and
assignments via electronic mail or the Coalition intranet.

CREATING A LOADSET IN JACS

1. To create a Loadset without having an existing JCEOI, create a Mission and Plan then
right-click on Plan to ‘Add Folders’ for RM, SOI, MNL and CNR.

a. Within the Plan properties screen (right-click on Plan folder), set the ‘Crypto
Effective’ date to be the effective date of the first edition of key to be generated.
Generally, this will be the first of the month.

b. On the ACES properties screen (right-click on the globe), make sure the Unique
Identifier is set for your workstation and set the Crypto Period and Supersession rate
on the Key Tags tab for SINCGARS TSK, TEK, and KEK. If obtaining TEK and
KEK from EKMS, ask COMSEC custodian for these values, else recommend:
- SINCGARS TSK – Monthly (Operational)
- TEK – Monthly
- KEK – Three Months
2. Create a SINCGARS Hopset if one does not already exist.
3. Open MNL and create a CNR SINCGARS-type net for each channel to be filled in the
Loadset. If all channels are to receive the same TEK, create a TEK Share group by right-
clicking on the TEK Share folder, and then use the COMSEC view on MNL to put the all
the nets in the same TEK Share Group. Validate and save the MNL.
Tip: The name of the TEK share group will be used as Text ID of the generated key tag
(identifier). (Spaces in the TEK share group name will be converted to ‘-’ in the Text ID.)
However, you can change the Text ID of the key tag manually after the key tag has been
created.

JSC-HDBK-05-001 APPENDIX R

4. Select the rows on the MNL containing the Loadset nets. From the ‘Net’ pulldown menu,
select ‘Crypto-Generate.’
- For Key Source, select where the COMSEC key material is coming from (e.g.,
KOK-22 {EKMS}, KYK-13, RT-1523, etc.).
- * If the key is coming from a pre-positioned key source (e.g., KOK-22, KYK-13,
etc.), select the ‘EP/Key Assignments’ option. *If the key is to be created using a
field key generator (e.g. RT-1523), select the‘EP/Key Assignments and Tags’ option.
5. Generate Crypto; the TEK column of the MNL is populated with a TEK designator (i.e.,
T000, T001, etc.). This designator is the short-hand identifier to the key assigned to that
net.
- IF the pre-positioned key source is selected during generation, open the Keys
screen by right-clicking on Plan folder. Highlight the designator just generated, right-
click on the designator and edit it. Add attributes to identifier information as provided
by COMSEC custodian. *This step is extremely important when obtaining keys from
EKMS (KOK-22). Complete this step for all designators with a pre-positioned key
source.
- IF the pre-positioned key source is selected during generation, ensure the MNL is
saved and validated and reselect rows containing Loadset nets. From the ‘Net’
pulldown menu, select ‘Crypto-Generate.’ Reselect fields, but select the ‘Key Tags’
option. Complete Generation.
6. From the ‘MNL’ pulldown menu, select EP Definitions. Then click ‘Keys’ and
‘SINCGARS TSK.’
7. Fill in entries and select the Edition tab, and press ‘Add Edition’ to add the desired
number of crypto periods of TSK key material, and select ‘OK’ when finished.
8. On the EP screen, the row numbers on the left correspond to ‘EP ID’ numbers. If desired,
associate a Hopset resource and TSK to an EP ID.
9. Click on ‘+’ next to MNL folder on the tree of reveal ‘CNR’ folder. Click on ‘+’ next to
CNR folder to reveal the SINCGARS Loadset. Right-click on SINCGARS Loadset and
select Create.
10. Enter a Loadset Name and effective date. If Net IDs are being generated for the nets
being added to the Loadset, select the SOI edition generated. If not, leave blank.
10. On the Channel Tab, add required information to each desired channel. Select ‘OK.’

Loading CT3

1. Right-click on the Loadset to be downloaded and select DTD download. Enter a serial
number and ensure that the ‘CT3’ option is selected for Data Transfer Device.
2. Enter the Platform Name, Equipment Name, and Distribution Path, as you would like
them to appear on the CT3. (e.g., Platform ‘1CAV JUN,’ Equipment ‘1CAV RT,’
Distribution ‘1CAV’).
3. Select the equipment type to be loaded with the Loadset.

FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY R-3


APPENDIX R JSC-HDBK-05-001

4. Duration determines the dates for which you want to download the effective COMSEC
key. For example, if TEK is monthly and the duration is 01 Jun 04 to 31 Jul 04, two
segments of TEK tags are sent to the CT3.
5. If you want the Loadset download files saved for distribution to other ACES workstations
or for your own download at a later time, check the Save File option and then select a
location and file name for the created Loadset file.
6. After download, perform key needed operation on CT3 under the Receive menu option.

Loading RDS what is RDS?


1. Right-click on the Loadset to view the properties of the Loadset within ACES/JACS.
2. Identify the Key Designators (e.g., T000, T001, etc) assigned to each channel.
Open the Key screen by right-clicking on the Plan folder.
3. For each Key Designator, transfer a key onto the RDS, using the Text ID associated with
each key designator. *If this load must correspond with a CT3 load, get the material from
the CT3 onto a KYK-13 (or other CFD) to be used to load the RDS.
4. On ACES/JACS, right-click on the Loadset and select DTD Download.
5. Enter a serial number and ensure the ‘RDS’ is selected for Data Transfer Device. Enter
the name of the Loadset, as you want it to appear on RDS in the platform field.
6. **The duration for an RDS download can only be one Crypto Period in length. If a TEK
segment is effective 01 Jun 04 through 30 Jun 04, the duration must be set within that
window of time.
7. If you want the Loadset download file saved for distribution to other ACES workstations
or for your own download at a later time, click on the Save File option and then selects a
location and file name for the created Loadset file.

Load RDS, Using RBECS and ACES/JACS Loadset

1. Export ACES plan, using RBECS as the export type.


2. Open RBECS with ACES/JACS created using RBECS database.
3. Edit the Loadset and note the TEK identifiers in the Loadset.
4. Put the required keys on RDS, using the TEK identifiers just noted.
5. Download Loadset.
