Record 1 2021-12-15

English

Subject field(s)
  • Radio Interference
  • Electronic Warfare
CONT

A comprehensive and well thought out JRFL [joint restricted frequency list] and EMCON [emission control] plan are normally the two tools that permit flexibility of EW [electronic warfare] actions during an operation without compromising friendly use of the EM [electromagnetic] spectrum. Some of the coordination actions related to EM spectrum that EW staff personnel should consider include :... establishing and designating a jamming control authority(JCA) to conduct on-station coordination, employment, targeting, and deconfliction of EA [electronic attack] and ES [electronic warfare support] assets.

OBS

jamming control authority; JCA: designations standardized by NATO.

English

Subject field(s)
  • Ignition Systems (Motor Vehicles)
CONT

There is clear agreement among the manufacturers that the basic emission control approach will be the closed-loop, three-way catalyst system. In addition to the catalyst, the typical system will consist of exhaust gas recirculation(EGR), air injection(pulse air in light vehicles, air pump in heavy vehicles), oxygen sensor, micro-computer, and feed-back carburator or electronic fuel injection.

Record 6 2006-01-25

English

Subject field(s)
  • Information Processing (Informatics)
  • Anti-pollution Measures
CONT

The compliance of each Annex B Party with its emission target will be assessed by comparing its emissions during the commitment period with the assigned amount held by the Party. A system of electronic registries is being established to keep track of the levels of assigned amount for each Party.... In order to transparently coordinate and track the movement of all these units, registries are linked via secure [Internet] channels. It is the job of the international transaction log, which is being put in place by the secretariat, to coordinate and monitor all these activities and ensure that each step conforms to the rules set under the Kyoto Protocol.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Traitement de l'information (Informatique)
  • Mesures antipollution
CONT

Le respect des engagements pris par chacune des Parties visées à l'annexe B est évalué en comparant les émissions produites au cours de la période d'engagement aux quantités attribuées. Un système de registres électroniques est en train d'être mis en place afin de suivre l'évolution de ces quantités. [...] Afin d'assurer avec transparence la coordination et le suivi du mouvement de toutes ces unités, les registres sont reliés par des lignes Internet sûres. C'est le relevé international des transactions, que le secrétariat est en train de mettre en place, qui coordonne et contrôle toutes ces activités et qui veille à ce que chaque étape du processus soit conforme aux règles du Protocole de Kyoto.
