The database provides a record of the frequencies used by each facility or device to assist parties in selecting frequencies to avoid interference. Without a database, there would be no record of WMTS usage because WMTS transmitters will not be individually licensed. The designated frequency coordinator has the responsibility to maintain an accurate engineering database of all WMTS transmitters, identified by location (coordinates, street address, building), operating frequency, emission type and output power, frequency range(s) used, modulation scheme used, effective radiated power, number of transmitters in use at the health care facility at the time of registration, legal name of the authorized health care provider, and point of contact for authorized health care provider.

    On June 12, 2000, the Commission released a Report and Order, ET 
Docket No. 99-255, FCC 00-211, which allocated spectrum and established 
rules for a ``Wireless Medical Telemetry Service'' (WMTS) that allows 
potentially life-critical equipment to operate in an interference-
protected basis. Medical telemetry equipment is used in hospitals and 
health care facilities to transmit patient measurement data such as 
pulse and respiration rate to a nearby receiver, permitting greater 
patient mobility and increased comfort. The Commission designated a 
frequency coordinator, who maintains a database of all WMTS equipment. 
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. Without 
a database, there would be no record of WMTS usage because WMTS 
transmitters will not be individually licensed. The designated 
frequency coordinator has the responsibility to maintain an accurate 
engineering database of all WMTS transmitters, identified by location 
(coordinates, street address, building), operating frequency, emission 
type and output power, frequency range(s) used, modulation scheme used, 
effective radiated power, number of transmitters in use at the health 
care facility at the time of registration, legal name of the authorized 
health care provider, and point of contact for authorized health care 
provider. The frequency coordinator will make the database available to 
WMTS users, equipment manufacturers and the public. The coordinator 
will also notify users of potential frequency conflicts.
