Brazil's ANATEL's strategic regulation on compliance with CEMRF levels is under discussion

Published /Effective /Brazil

ANATEL's Public Consultation No. 26 seeks public comment on the proposed Procedural Act for the collection of data related to the conformity assessment of transmitting stations with respect to exposure limits to electric, magnetic, and electromagnetic radiofrequency fields (CEMRF).

This procedure, based on ANATEL's powers under the General Telecommunications Law and complementary regulations, is aimed at ensuring the efficient use of the radio spectrum and the protection of human health.

The proposal includes a staggered schedule for various stations, including personal mobile services, broadcasting, multimedia communication, and other services, to comply with data submission between 12 and 36 months from the law's entry into force, with the obligation to report within 30 days of licensing or relevant technical changes.

WHOM DOES IT IMPACT?

The direct impact is on telecommunications operators, evaluating entities, and manufacturers and suppliers of transmission equipment.

CONCLUSION:

The initiative strengthens regulatory control and transparency in spectrum management, requiring operators to exercise greater technical rigor and guaranteeing safe levels of radiofrequency exposure for the population.
