Technical Standards for Land Mobile Radio Telecommunication Devices Prescribed
The Draft Ministerial Decree on Technical Standards for Land Mobile Radio Telecommunication Devices was made because the current standards are no longer in line with technological developments and need to be replaced. The following are matters related to the new technical standards:
- Updating EMC requirements following international standards CISPR 32 or ETSI EN 301 489;
- Updating electrical safety requirements following IEC 60950-1 or IEC 62368-1;
- Land Mobile Radio devices are divided into 3 types of devices, including conventional radio devices, trunking radio devices, and private mobile radio devices;
- Conventional and trunking radio devices are divided into 4 groups, namely handheld, mobile, base/repeater, and radio modem;
- Restriction of device working frequency from wide (e.g. previously UHF devices were allowed to have working frequencies of 300 – 3000 MHz), to be adjusted to the allocation according to TASFRI and the prevalence of devices produced by vendors (e.g. in this RKM, UHF devices are allowed to have working frequencies of 300 – 470 MHz only, so 450 – 512 MHz devices are not allowed);
- Test parameters are limited to parameters that are able to avoid harmful interference, including working frequency, channel spacing, conducted output power, spurious emissions, and frequency errors/frequency stability. Other test parameters are deleted, including temperature, impedance, and modulation; and
- Addition of test methods according to international standards.
