RESOLUTIONGSC-1615/20: (GRSC): Radio Microphones and Cordless Audio Standardization (Revisedreaffirmed)

The 165th Global Standards Collaboration meeting (HalifaxBeijing, 310OctoberAugust–32SeptNovember 20110)

Recognizing:

a)that there is worldwide appeal and use of Radio Microphones by performers, musicians and public speakers, among others, on unused TV channels;

b)that there is worldwide appeal and use of VHF Band II micro Cordless Audio transmitters to send music to users’ radios on unused FM channels;

b)that GSC has adopted Resolution 16/xx concerning the use of opportunistic wireless access methods; and

a)c)that various countries and regions have established differing standards and test methods for these devices.

Resolves:

1)to facilitate a strong and effective global radio standards collaboration on Radio Microphones and cCordless Audio standardization in a technology neutral environment;

2)that given the World wide appeal and use of band 2 micro transmitters, the GRSC Task Force should continue to examine existing standards and limits and update the Task Force documents for the next GRSC;

3)that the GRSC Task Force should seek member’s views and comments on band sharing with non-broadcastother services given increasing congestion of now that the broadcast bands have become congested with simulcasting of analogue and digital transmissions; and
