Abstract
MIC is discussing to revise 950MHz regulation in Japan. Main revisions are
Relaxation of some technical requirements, and
Expansion of frequency channels.
As revised regulation would be expected to be issued around 2010/2Q, it’s better TG4g refers new regulation.
FYI, I show the draft of revised regulation (only for SRD) at this time.

1. Relaxation of Technical Requirements
Background
950MHz band is used with RFID Passive tag systems.
As current regulation of SRD is based on that of RFID, some requirements are not appropriate for SRD.

Controller (1/4)
Sending control
10 ms carrier sense
Radio equipment shall stop its emission of radio signal within 1s after it starts to emit. It shall wait 100 ms or more for the consecutive emission.
However, it may emit again without waiting 100ms, if it is within 1 s after its first emission and the emission is finished within this 1 s interval.
128 us carrier sense
Radio equipment shall stop its emission of radio signal within 100 ms after it starts to emit. It shall wait 100 ms or more for the consecutive emission. The amount of sending time summed for 1 hour shall be 360 s or less.
However, it may emit again without waiting 100 ms, if it is within 100 ms after its first emission and the emission is finished within this 100 ms interval.
No carrier sense
Radio equipment shall stop its emission of radio signal within 100 ms after it starts to emit. It shall wait 100 ms or more for the consecutive emission. The amount of sending time summed for 1 hour shall be 3.6 s or less.
Comments
Duty cycle is specified by each node, not by each carrier sense mode.
Duty cycle is specifie1d in arbitrary 1 hour period, not in previous 1 hour period.

21. Antenna Antenna gain Less than 3dBi.
November 2009
Antenna
Antenna gain
Less than 3dBi.
However, in case EIRP is less than the value 3dBi added by the above defined maximum antenna power, it is allowed to compensate the difference by the antenna gain.
For example
When the measured antenna power is 6dBm then antenna gain is allowed to be increased up to 7dBi.

Reference: Operational Guidelines (1/3)
1. Overview
1.1 Purpose
The purpose of this operational guideline is to avoid the harmful interferences to other neighboring systems or other specified low power radio stations and to achieve the efficient usage of radio and to provide the user convenience when operating 950MHz-band telemeter, telecontrol and data transmission radio equipment for specified low power radio station (call it ‘specified low power radio station’ below)
1.2 Scope of application
This operational guideline is applied to user and agency of manufacture and distributor, constructor, operator and agency of maintenance of specified low power radio station.
1.3 Target system
The target system of this operational guideline is following.
(1) 950MHz-band telemeter, telecontrol and data transmission radio equipment for specified low power radio station: ARIB STD-T96

Reference: Operational Guidelines (2/3)
2. Avoiding interference
It is desirable that the radio station specified in this standard does not use channel 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14 and 15 in consideration of the interference received from the premises radio station specified by STD-T89.
If channel 8 or channel 14 is used by premises radio station employing sub-carrier method, it is desirable that the radio station specified in this standard does not use channel 7 and 9 or channel 13 and 15 as much as possible in consideration of the interference given to the premises radio station because these channels are used by very weak response signals of the passive tag.
Appendix table 1 shows the channel plan of “950MHz-band RFID equipment for premises radio station”, “950MHz-band RFID radio equipment for specified low power radio station” and “950MHz-band telemeter, telecontrol and data transmission radio equipment for specified low power radio station”.

3. Influence to medical equipments
To avoid the influence to medical equipments, it is desirable to act properly according to the guideline of action described in “Study Report on the Effect of Radio Waves on Medical Devices”(Note1).
(Note1): When issuing version 1.0 of this standard (6th June, 2008), it indicates the report issued by MIC on March, However, when it is revised, it indicates the latest version.
4. Protection of privacy
For protection of privacy, it is desirable to act properly according to “Guidelines for Privacy Protection with Regard to RFID Tags”(Note2).　　
(Note2): When issuing version 1.0 of this standard (6th June, 2008), it indicates the guideline issued by MIC and METI on 8th June, However, when it is revised, it indicates the latest version.
