The Info-Communications Media Development Authority (IMDA) issued a second revision of technical specifications for Short Range Devices (SRD) on August 2, 2021. 

This Specification defines the minimum technical requirements for SRD including authorized frequency bands, the corresponding output power levels for SRDs as well as restricted conditions.

The Revision was supplemented by a wider variety of SRD applications that can operate on the same frequency due to the different criteria for spectrum access. The revised document focuses on the requirements and spectrum access conditions (according to the Table 1 of the technical specifications) for allowing coexistence of all kinds of SRD. 

The table now contains the “Additional Spectrum Access Conditions” column that clarifies conditions for frequency band sharing.

In addition to the requirements, the IMDA includes a Checklist that can be used as a guide for assessment of the SRD for conformity with applicable requirements set out in the Specification.
