March 23, 2021 Appeal for Opinions on Draft Basic Concept of Operational Coordination to Beam Wireless Power Transmission Systems

The Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications (MIC) will make an appeal for opinions from Wednesday, March 24 through Thursday, April 22, 2022, on a draft basic concept of operational coordination to beam wireless power transmission systems. This draft was prepared by the Study Meeting on Operational Coordination of Beam Wireless Power Transmission Systems (chaired by MITANI Masaaki, professor, Tokyo Denki University)

1. Background

MIC received a partial report from the Information and Communications Council in July 2020 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 partial report pointed out the necessity for considering an operational coordination mechanism to avoid or reduce the impact on existing wireless systems.
In this connection, MIC organized the Study Meeting on Operational Coordination of Beam Wireless Power Transmission Systems. Accordingly, the Study Meeting has been considering the basic concept of beam wireless power transmission systems to build a mechanism for the operational coordination with existing wireless systems.
Recently, the Study Meeting drafted a basic concept of operational coordination to beam wireless power transmission systems. Therefore, MIC has decided to make an appeal for opinions on the draft.

2. Subject of appeal for opinions

Draft Basic Concept of Operational Coordination to Beam Wireless Power Transmission Systems

3. Guidelines for appealing for opinions

The published material is in Japanese only.

4. Submission period

No later than Thursday, April 22, 2021 (Opinions submitted by postal mail will be accepted if postmarked the same day.)

5. Future plans

Considering the result of the appeal for opinions, MIC will hold the fourth meeting of the Study Meeting to finalize the concept.
