Notice of Public Information Collections Being Submitted for Review to the Office of Management and Budget, 9331-9332 [E7-3522]

Download as PDF Federal Register / Vol. 72, No. 40 / Thursday, March 1, 2007 / Notices The Commission allocated spectrum to wireless medical telemetry services (WMTS) on a primary basis, which allows potentially life-critical medical telemetry equipment to operate on an interference-protected basis. The Commission also adopted service rules for WMTS that ‘‘license by rule’’ meaning that users are permitted to operate WMTS equipment that complies with the rules without the need to apply for a license from the Commission. Furthermore, the Commission adopted rules to designate a frequency coordinator, who maintains a database of all WMTS equipment. Without such a database, there would be no record of WMTS usage because WMTS transmitters are not individually licensed. All parties using equipment in the WMTS are required to coordinate/ register their operating frequency and other relevant technical operating parameters with the designated coordinator. The database provides a record of the frequencies used by each facility or device to assist parties in selecting frequencies to avoid interference. Federal Communications Commission. Marlene H. Dortch, Secretary. [FR Doc.
