December 2, 2020 Holding of Study Group on Operational Coordination of Beam Wireless Power Transmission Systems

The Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications (MIC) will hold a Study Group on Operational Coordination of Beam Wireless Power Transmission Systems to institutionalize them. At the meeting, the Study Group will examine the operational coordination of them with existing wireless systems.

1. Background and purpose

MIC received a partial report from the Information and Communications Council this year on technical requirements for beam wireless power transmission systems on the premises as part of technical requirements for beam wireless power transmission systems (Inquiry No. 2043 of December 12, 2018). The report pointed out the necessity for considering an operational coordination mechanism to avoid or reduce the impact on existing wireless systems.
Accordingly, MIC will hold the Study Group’s meeting on the operational coordination of beam wireless power transmission systems to institutionalize them. The Study Group will consider the ideal state of beam wireless power transmission systems to build a mechanism for the operational coordination with existing wireless systems.
