Establishment of a Medical Implant Communications Service in the 402-405 MHz Band

Краткое содержание

This document proposes to establish a Medical Implant Communications Service (``MICS'') operating in the 402-405 MHz band. MICS operations would consist of high-speed, ultra low power, nonvoice transmissions to and from implanted medical devices such as cardiac pacemakers and defibrillators. This document also proposes to allocate the 402-405 MHz band to the mobile service on a shared basis, designate this allocation for use by the MICS, and to amend the Commission's Rules to codify service rules for the MICS. The proposed rules will allow use of newly-developed, life-saving medical technology without harming other users of the frequency band.
