SEAMCAT® (Spectrum Engineering Advanced Monte Carlo Analysis Tool)

What is SEAMCAT?

SEAMCAT® is a software tool based on the Monte-Carlo simulation method, which was developed within the frame of European Conference of Postal and Telecommunication administrations (CEPT). This tool permits statistical modelling of different radio interference scenarios for performing sharing and compatibility studies between radiocommunications systems in the same or adjacent frequency bands.

       History of SEAMCAT MoU 1997-2002 (25 KB pdf file)

The ECO has launch a new SEAMCAT forum where the SEAMCAT Community can share its experience, new idea of enhancement, installation troubleshoot etc…

The software is maintained by ECO and distributed free-of-charge.

SEAMCAT Stakeholders

The SEAMCAT project is an ongoing WGSE (Working Group Spectrum Engineering) activity. The daily maintenance of the project and the SEAMCAT software is entrusted to ECO. STG (SEAMCAT Technical Group) acts as the supervising committee and source of technical expertise. There exists 2 mailing reflectors:

  • The public SEAMCAT E-mail reflector disseminates useful information within the group of SEAMCAT users, such as user support messages, usage tips, information on updates and questions/answers from members of the group.

  • The public STG E-mail reflector is open to administration, industry and academia. The STG participants are not just users, but people who want to develop and contribute to the insides of SEAMCAT. Free JAVA development of the SEAMCAT source code is also possible.
