Recall - two important ways in which the objective of the R sector is achieved:
Through holding and organising WRCs where the RR are brought up-to-date with new technology and refined to reflect the changing needs of the ITU members;
The production of Recommendations which represent authoritative texts on essentially all areas of radiocommunication technology with which the ITU deals.
For both of these, technical studies are required and
it is in the SGs where the majority of these technical studies are undertaken.
