Radiodetermination licences

Who does this licence apply to?

  • Persons or other legal entities that own and operate radio transmitting equipment for the purpose of determining the position, velocity and/or other characteristics of an object.

 

What are radiodetermination licences?

Licences issued under this category cover radio transmitting equipment used for:

  • the determination of position, velocity and/or other characteristics of an object, or
  • the obtaining of information relating to these parameters, by means of the propagation properties of radio waves.

Navigation by ships and aircraft rely heavily on transmitters licensed in this category and considerable effort is made by Radio Spectrum Management (RSM) to protect associated receivers from interference.

 

Applying for a radiodetermination licence

Application for a radiodetermination licence can be made online or contact an approved radio engineer or certifier to apply for the licence on your behalf.

For applicable licence fees refer to the fees schedule.
