However, ORBCOMM's system contains a mechanism designed to prevent interference to other users of the band, including VITA and Federal Government users. The mechanism, a "Dynamic Channel Activity Assignment System"(DCAAS), is designed to avoid assigning ORBCOMM's subscriber traffic to uplink channels that are occupied by other users. To accomplish this, the DCAAS will scan ORBCOMM's uplink band approximately every five seconds searching for actively used channels. 2, record 1, English, - dynamic%20channel%20activity%20assignment%20system

In the dynamic channel assignment scheme all the channels are kept in a central pool and any channel can be used in any cell. However, the channels used in one cell can only be simultaneously reassigned to another cell if the separation between the two cells exceeds the minimum distance required for cochannel interference 2, record 2, English, - dynamic%20channel%20allocation
