HS Code 851712

Draft Commission Delegated Regulation supplementing Directive 2014/53/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council with regard to the application of the essential requirements referred to in Article 3 (3) (g) of that Directive in order to ensure caller location in emergency communications from mobile devices (9 page(s), in English)

This draft Commission Delegated Regulation aims to ensure that hand-held mobile telephones with advanced computing capabilities (commonly known as 'smartphones') ensure access to emergency services. This will be done by requiring mobile device producers to support technical solutions for the reception and processing of location data derived from Wi-Fi signals, and data from Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) compatible and interoperable with at least the Galileo system (Galileo is the European global navigation satellite system established under Regulation (EU) No 1285/2013) for the purpose of making emergency communications more effective.
