Variation to the Low Interference Potential Devices Class Licence - Summary and response to submissions (113.56 KB)

We are introducing new arrangements to support 5G, the Internet of Things (IoT) and other new technologies.

We want to include these in the Radiocommunications (Low Interference Potential Devices) Class Licence 2015 (LIPD Class Licence).

The updates relate to:

• wireless broadband in the 24.25–25.10 GHz band
• IoT devices in the 928–935 MHz band and VHF high bands
• radiodetermination devices in the 10.50–10.55 GHz band.  

We have included other minor updates for consideration.

We also invite suggestions on devices and technologies for future updates to the transmitters authorised under the LIPD Class Licence.

The ACMA would like your views on the issues raised in this consultation, or any other issues with the LIPD Class Licence.
