Changes in Operating Parameters for Wireless Technologies
The National Telecommunications Commission (NTC) of the Philippines has issued Memorandum Circular No. 002-07-2024, dated July 5, 2024. This new circular amends Section 2 of Memorandum Circular No. 03-05-2007, introducing significant updates to the operating parameters for wireless technologies, specifically HIPERLANs and RLANs.
New Operating Parameters:
2400 – 2483.5 MHz: Maximum power of 100 mW eirp
5150 – 5350 MHz: Maximum power of 200 mW eirp
5470 – 5850 MHz: Maximum power of 250 mW eirp
5925 – 6425 MHz: Maximum power of 25 mW eirp (for indoor and outdoor use)
5925 – 6425 MHz: Maximum power of 250 mW eirp (use on unmanned aircraft systems/drones is prohibited)
17.1 – 17.3 GHz: Maximum power of 100 mW eirp (for indoor use only)
The updated regulations will take effect fifteen (15) days after their publication in a newspaper of general circulation. Compliance with these new technical parameters is mandatory for all relevant equipment and operations.
Key Differences from Previous Regulations:
Additional Frequency Bands: The new regulations introduce specific power limits for the 5925 – 6425 MHz and 17.1 – 17.3 GHz bands, which were either not covered or detailed in the previous regulations.
Use Restrictions: The new regulations explicitly prohibit the use of the 5925 – 6425 MHz band for unmanned aircraft systems/drones and clearly differentiate between indoor and outdoor use.
Regulatory Focus: The updated memorandum emphasizes adapting to technological advancements and ensuring efficient use of the radio spectrum, highlighting the need for a modernized regulatory framework.
