MICS Rules and Implication to MAC May 2009 MICS Rules and Implication to MAC No medical Implant device shall transmit except in response to a transmission from a medical implant controller ‘medical implant events’. i.e when patient’s health is at risk non-radio frequency actuation signal generated by an external device Channels authorized for MICS operation are available on a shared basis only and will not be assigned for the exclusive use of any entity. Within 5 seconds prior to initiating a communications session, medical implant controller must monitor the channel or channels the MICS system devices intend to occupy for a minimum of 10 milliseconds per channel (LBT or LBT+AFA) Channel can be used for communication session if the no signal above the threshold power level is detected Samsung Electronics
