Australian Communications and Media Authority (ACMA) has introduced new licensing requirements for Differential GPS (DGPS) users as a result of changes to the 400 MHz band.
The operation of all DGPS equipment must be covered by a relevant radiocommunications licence.
These licences outline:
The operator can hold the licence themselves or have written permission from a current licensee under a third-party agreement.
The licence issued will allow DGPS operation at one fixed site (site-specific operation) or within a larger geographic area (area-wide operation).
For more information about the changes, visit the DGPS compliance page on the ACMA website, go to the compliance hub for comprehensive information about repeaters, base stations, 2-way radios and more or download the DGPS fact sheet and checklist
