ANATEL Introduces New Rules for Radiofrequency Band Usage

Published /Brazil

New Guidelines Approved by ANATEL

On March 5th, 2020, the Directing Council of the National Telecommunications Agency - ANATEL approved new rules for the use of radiofrequency bands by radio link systems.

Radio link systems are utilized for wireless communication between two fixed points. They are part of the fixed service, and depending on the type of information transmitted (voice, images, and data) and the characteristics of the environment, they can utilize various radio frequency bands and operating configurations.

The revised regulations consolidate previously fragmented rules from 26 different instruments into a single normative framework. This consolidation standardizes and simplifies the process, making it more understandable and transparent for obtaining the concession and exploitation of fixed services.

Additionally, to ensure greater flexibility and adaptability to the ongoing technological evolution of radio link systems and equipment, complementary technical aspects and operational requirements will now be established in specific acts by the Superintendence Grant and Provision Resources.
