Telecommunication equipment, radio equipment and telecommunication terminal equipment

Revision of existing radio interface regulations (RIR), addition of new RIR and withdrawal of existing RIR (see point 8); English, number of pages: 26.

Radio interface regulations (RIR) define the requirements for the frequency use by radiocommunication equipment in the frequency range up to 3000 GHz. RIR include the technical parameters, the frequency bands as well as the rules on the use of the radio frequency spectrum. The list of RIR and their version are in annex 1 of the Ordinance of the Swiss Federal Office of Communications on telecommunications installations (OOIT).

The radio interface regulations listed at point 5 haves to be revised due to latest frequency management developments.
784.101.21/RIR0203-11 (Cordless cameras in the frequency range 1980 - 3500 MHz): the RIR will be amended in order to be in line with EC Decision 2016/339.
784.101.21/RIR0203-15 (Video Programme making and special events (PMSE) in the frequency range 47.20 - 50.20 GHz): the RIR will be deleted on 1/1/2023 and will also no longer be referenced in the 2023 National Frequency Allocation plan (NaFZ).
784.101.21/RIR0301-01 (Point-to-Multipoint communications in the frequency range 3410 - 3600 MHz): the RIR will be deleted on 1/1/2023 and will also no longer be referenced in the 2023 National Frequency Allocation plan (NaFZ).
784.101.21/RIR0301-03 (Point-to-Multipoint communications for Broadband Fixed Wireless Access in the frequency range 3410 - 3500 MHz): the RIR will be deleted on 1/1/2023 and will also no longer be referenced in the 2023 National Frequency Allocation plan (NaFZ).
784.101.21/RIR0302-43 (Point-to-point communications in the frequency range 57.000 - 58.000 GHz): the RIR will be amended as for revocation of ECC/REC/(09)01.
784.101.21/RIR0302-45 (Point-to-point communications in the frequency range 64 - 66 GHz): the RIR will be amended as for revocation of ECC/REC/(05)02.
784.101.21/RIR0302-47 (Point-to-point communications in the frequency range 58.000 - 63.000 GHz): the RIR will be amended as for revocation of ECC/REC/(09)01.
784.101.21/RIR0805-01 (Feeder links above 1 GHz in the frequency range 1 - 3000 GHz): the new RIR is introduced for Fixed earth stations for satellite communications (FSS) operating with geostationary orbit (GSO).
784.101.21/RIR0806-25 (Aircraft Earth Station (AES) communications in the frequency range 12.75 - 13.25 GHz operating with Geostationary Spatial Orbit (GSO) and with Non-geostationary Spatial Orbit (NGSO) Fixed-Satellite Service (FSS)): this is a new RIR for AES (Aircraft Earth Stations).
784.101.21/RIR0808-01 (Communications Systems by Satellite INMARSAT in the frequency range 1631.5 - 1660.5 MHz): the RIR will be deleted on 1/1/2023 and will also no longer be referenced in the 2023 National Frequency Allocation plan (NaFZ). The application is newly included in RIR0808-17.
784.101.21/RIR0808-02 (Mobile satellite communication earth stations (MSS Earth Stations) in the frequency range 1626.5 - 1675.0 MHz): the RIR will be amended to incorporate addition of the frequency band, ECC Decision (04)09 and adjustments due to the unification of the 'Authorisation regime' text.
784.101.21/RIR0808-05 (Satellite-based Personal Communication Systems (S-PCS) for S-PCS terminals in the frequency band 1610.0 - 1626.5 MHz): the RIR will be amended to align with the addition of the receive frequency band according to ECC Decision (09)02 and adjustments due to the unification of the 'Authorisation regime' text.
