Additionally, in its comments, Medtronic also suggests  S (minor changes to the technical rules proposed in the Notice that will reflect the most recent  S (developments in medical implant device technology.; 2 ( {O|(ԍId. at 1011.;  SZ(8. Further, Medtronic indicates that the MICS can be implemented in the 402-405 MHz band  S2(without interference to shared Metaids operations.F2 ( {O(ԍSee note 2, supra.F Medtronic cites an International Telecommunication Union ("ITU") recommendation which states that sharing is feasible between the MICS and Metaids systems operating in the 401406 MHz band if the effective isotropic radiated  S(power ("EIRP") of MICS transmitters is limited to 25 microwatts.@V ( yO (ЍIn its Petition at 14, Medtronic references the report prepared by the ITU Radiocommunication Study Group, Working Party 7C, Document 7C/TEMP/138E (5 June 1997). Subsequently, this document was incorporated into ITUR Recommendation SA1346, "Sharing Between the Meteorological Aids Service and Medical Implant Communications Systems Operating in the Mobile Service in the Frequency Band 401406 MHz." (February 1998).

We, therefore, amend our Rules to designate the MICS as a shared, secondary  S(operation in the 402405 MHz band.  S8(C. Licensing of MICS Operations  S(9. In the Notice, we proposed an administrative approach for the MICS that would minimize  S(regulation.>( {OP (ԍNotice,  14.> Rather than issue individual station licenses, we proposed to administer the MICS within  S(the CB Radio Service under Part 95 of our Rules,Z~( {O(ЍSee note 3, supra.Z where operation may be authorized by rule  St(pursuant to Section 307(e) of the Communications Act. t( yO$(Ѝ47 U.S.C.  307(e)(3) provides that the term "citizens band radio service" shall have the meaning given it by the Commission by rule. 47 U.S.C.  307(e)(1) provides that upon determination by the Commission that an authorization serves the public interest, convenience, and necessity, the Commission may by rule authorize the operation of radio stations without individual licenses in the citizens band radio service.

MICS will be administered within the CB Radio Service, operation will be authorized by rule, and administration will be by adherence to technical"n",>(>(ZZ" standards, equipment certification requirements and operating rules. In order to assure compliance with the technical standards, we are requiring certification of MICS transmitters.  S(D. RF Emission exposure  S:( 11. In the Notice,>#:6^ {O(ԍNotice,  13.> we proposed to exempt MICS transmitters from the requirement for  S(routine evaluation of human exposure to RF emissions pursuant to Section 1.1307(b) of our Rules.K$XZ( yO (Ѝ47 C.F.R.  1.1307(b) requires, when applying for equipment authorization, the preparation of an Environmental Assessment ("EA") if a transmitter would cause human exposure to levels of radio frequency radiation in excess of the limits specified in 47 C.F.R.  1.1310. K  S(We stated that because of the very low proposed EIRP of an implanted MICS transmitter (i.e., 25 microwatts), it appeared unlikely that either patients or medical professionals would be exposed in  S(excess of our radiation exposure limits.>%z( {O(ԍNotice,  13.>  SN ( 12.

Medtronic and Dr. Scanlon state that the Medtronic approach may not be the only one employed for medical implant transmitters and that other manufacturers could employ designs and technologies that could potentially  S (cause radiation levels to be at or near current limits.7' , ( {O|(ԍId. at 1.7 Therefore, Medtronic and Dr. Scanlon recommend that a filing of a certification of compliance with with our RF exposure rules, as required by Section 1.1307, is needed, as it will provide additional assurance that a patient's health and safety  S8(are protected.1(8 ( {O(ԍId.1 After considering this issue, we agree with the rationale presented by Medtronic and Dr. Scanlon. We conclude that evaluation for RF exposure prior to equipment authorization is appropriate and accordingly will amend Section 1.1307 (b)(2) of our Rules as required.  S(E. Equipment Registration  SJ( 13. In the Notice, we proposed that the holder of the grant of equipment authorization shall include with each medical implant programmer/control transmitter a notice that the entity responsible for the operation of the medical implant programmer/control transmitter shall, before using the device,  S(register with the holder of the grant of equipment authorization.)P ( {O%(ԍ#X\  P6G;ɒP#Notice, Appendix B,  95.1115(b) Disclosure policies and registration..

The intent of the proposed rule was to enable the manufacturer or the holder of the grant of equipment authorization of the programmer/control transmitter to establish a data base of the locations of the devices. This data base would be made available to us should interference from a programmer/control transmitter be suspected. Upon further consideration of this proposed rule, we believe that it is not appropriate for us to mandate the registration of transmitting equipment with the manufacturer, nor to specify the details of registration documents. We conclude that mandatory registration is unnecessary and that registration requirements and details should be left to the discretion  S(of the manufacturer or the holder of equipment certification of the device.*$( yOP( xԍFor example, Medtronic states that they will maintain records of the locations of all programmer/controller  {O ( x transmitters to be used with medical implant transmitters made by Medtronic to be operated in the MICS. See Ex  {O ( xxParte Presentation Letter from David E. Hilliard, Counsel for Medtronic, to Ms. Magalie Roman Salas, Secretary, Federal Communications Commission (October 27, 1999).  We, therefore, are not adopting the registration requirement as proposed in  95.1115(b) and 95.1117(a) of Appendix B as  S(contained in the Notice.  S" ( IV. CONCLUSION ă  S (15. Considering the support received for our proposals in the Notice, for the foregoing  S (reasons, we adopt rules to: (a) amend the Table of Allocations in Section 2.106 of our Rules>+ ( yO(ԍ47 C.F.R.  2.106. > to allocate the 402405 MHz band to the mobile service and designate the MICS as a shared operation in  S\(the band and; (b) add Subpart I to Part 95 of the Rules,;,\D( yO@(ԍ47 C.F.R.

We believe that the adopted rules will allow use of newlydeveloped, life-saving medical technology without harming other users of the frequency band.  SD(16. Accordingly, in this Report and Order, we adopt rule changes that implement a regulatory framework for the MICS consisting of authorization by rule on the condition that harmful interference is not caused to stations in the Metaids Service and provide for approval of MICS transmitters under  S(our equipment authorization program. We also adopt, with minor revisions, the operational rules and  S(technical standards for the MICS as proposed in the Notice. We believe that these rules will ensure that neither Metaids nor MICS operations will experience any interference from sharing the 402405 MHz band. "d -,>(>(ZZ"Ԍ S(Xx (#xV.

According to the SBA's regulations, nursing homes and hospitals must have annual  SX(gross receipts of $5 million or less in order to qualify as a small business concern.?:X( yO(ԍ13 C.F.R.  121.201.?

Description of Projected Reporting, Recordkeeping and Other Compliance Requirements : 5. There is a reporting or recordkeeping requirement that will be imposed as a result of the actions adopted in this rule making proceeding. Manufacturers of medical implant programmer/control transmitters will continue to be required to follow our normal equipment authorization procedures, and include with each transmitting device a statement regarding harmful interference pursuant to  95.1215(a) and 95.1217 of the Rules.  S( E. Steps Taken to Minimize Significant Economic Impact on Small Entities and Significant  S(Alternatives Considered : 6. By making frequency spectrum available, the adopted rules will have a beneficial economic impact on small business entities that would either manufacture, or contribute to the manufacturing of, equipment used in the MICS by enabling these businesses to increase their product lines. In addition, a beneficial, indirect, economic impact affects individuals who are the recipients of implanted MICS devices. While a precise determination of the cost savings is difficult to calculate, two examples are useful. First, over $15M dollars per year would be saved by eliminating the need to conduct quarterly interrogation of implanted cardiac defibrillators in the clinical setting. This estimate does not include the interrogation of pacemakers, which are implanted at a much higher rate than defibrillators. Second, over $37B is currently spent annually on hospitalization due to heart failure. When devices currently under development for the management of heart failure incorporate the MICS technology, it is expected that there will be a meaningful reduction in hospitalization costs. Assuming this impact is  S(as small as five percent, the estimated savings would be nearly $2B per year.<( {O(ЍSee Amendment of Parts 2 and 95 of the Commission's Rules to Establish a Medical Implant Communications Radio Service in the 402405 MHz Band, RM9157, Petition for Rule Making at 6, note 3.

Medical implant programmer/control transmitters must incorporate a  SH$(mechanism for#&a\  P6G;u&P# monitoring the channel or channels that the MICS system devices intend to occupy. The monitoring system antenna shall be the antenna normally used by the programmer/control transmitter for a communications session. Before a medical implant programmer/control transmitter"%<,f'f'(#P" initiates a MICS communications session, the following access criteria must be met: (1) The monitoring system bandwidth measured at its 20 dB down points must be equal to or greater than the emission bandwidth of the intended transmission. (2) Within 5 seconds prior to initiating a communications session, circuitry associated with a medical implant programmer/control transmitter must monitor the channel or channels the MICS system devices intend to occupy for a minimum of 10 milliseconds per channel. (3) Based on use of an isotropic monitoring system antenna, the monitoring threshold power level must not be more than 10logB(Hz) 150 (dBm/Hz) + G(dBi) where B is the emission bandwidth of the MICS communication session transmitter having the widest emission and G is the medical implant programmer/control transmitter monitoring system antenna gain relative to an isotropic antenna. For purposes of showing compliance with the above provision, the above calculated threshold power level must be increased or decreased by an amount equal to the monitoring system antenna gain above or below the gain of an isotropic antenna, respectively. (4) If no signal in a MICS channel above the monitoring threshold power level is detected, the medical implant programmer/control transmitter may initiate a MICS communications session involving transmissions to and from a medical implant device on that channel. The MICS communications session may continue as long as any silent period between consecutive data transmission bursts does not exceed 5 seconds. If a channel meeting the criteria in paragraph (a)(3) of this section is unavailable, the channel with the lowest ambient power level may be accessed. (5) When a channel is selected prior to a MICS communications session, it is permissible to select an alternate channel for use if communications is interrupted, provided that the alternate channel selected is the next best choice using the above criteria. The alternate channel may be accessed in the event a communications session is interrupted by interference. The following criteria must be met: (i) Before transmitting on the alternate channel, the channel must be monitored for a period of at least 10 milliseconds. (ii) The detected power level during this 10 millisecond or greater monitoring period must be no higher than 6 dB above the power level detected when the channel was chosen as the alternate channel. (iii) In the event that this alternate channel provision is not used by the MICS system or if the criteria in (i) and (ii) above are not met, a channel must be selected using the access criteria specified in paragraphs (a)(1)(a)(4) of this section. (6) As used in this section, the following definitions apply:  Sp#((i) Emission bandwidth Measured as the width of the signal between the points on either side of carrier center frequency that are 20 dB down relative to the maximum level of the modulated carrier.

S`((iii) MICS communications session A collection of transmissions, that may or may not be continuous between MICS system devices. (b) MICS communications sessions initiated by a medical implant event are not required to use the access criteria set forth in paragraph (a) of this section. (c) Stations may operate on any of the frequencies in the band 402.000 405.000 MHz, provided that the outofband emissions are attenuated in accordance with  95.635. (d) The authorized bandwidth of the emission from a MICS station shall not exceed 300 kHz, and no communications session involving MICS stations shall use more than a total of 300 kHz of bandwidth during such a session. Note: This provision does not preclude full duplex or half duplex communications provided that the total amount of bandwidth utilized by all of the MICS channels employed in such a MICS communications session does not exceed 300 kHz. (e) Each transmitter in the MICS service must maintain a frequency stability of +/ 100 ppm of the operating frequency over the range:  S((1) 25$C to 45$C in the case of medical implant transmitters; and (2) 0$C to 55$C in the case of medical implant programmer/control transmitters.

See  95.605 and 95.639(g) regarding power measurement procedures. (3) Emission bandwidth will be determined by measuring the width of the signal between two points, one below the carrier center frequency and one above the carrier center frequency, that are 20 dB down relative to the maximum level of the modulated carrier. Compliance with the emission bandwidth limit is based on the use of measurement instrumentation employing a peak detector function with an instrument resolution bandwidth approximately equal to 1.0 percent of the emission bandwidth of the device under measurement. 14.

(5) Emissions 250 kHz or less that are above and below the MICS band (402405 MHz) will be attenuated below the maximum permitted output power by at least 20 dB. Compliance with this limit is based on the use of measurement instrumentation employing a peak detector function with an instrument resolution bandwidth approximately equal to 1.0 percent of the emission bandwidth of the device under measurement. 15. Section 95.639 is amended by adding paragraph (g) to read as follows: X(#  S(   95.639 Maximum transmitter power. * * * * * (g) In the MICS the following limits apply:  (1) The maximum EIRP for MICS transmitter stations is 25 microwatts. The antenna associated with any MICS transmitter must be supplied with the transmitter and shall be considered part of the transmitter subject to equipment authorization. Compliance of any MICS transmitter with the 25 microwatts EIRP limit may be determined by measuring the radiated field from the equipment under test at 3 meters and calculating the EIRP. The equivalent radiated field strength at 3 meters for 25 microwatts EIRP is 18.2 mV/meter when measured on an open area test site, or 9.1 mV/meter when measured on a test site equivalent to free space such as a fully anechoic test chamber. In either"0&<,f'f'#" case, compliance is based on measurements using a peak detector function and measured over an interval of time when transmission is continuous and at its maximum power level. In lieu of using a peak detector function, instrumentation techniques set forth in ANSI C63.171998, Section 6.1.2.2.1 or Section 6.1.2.2.2 may be used in determining compliance with the above specifications.  (2) For a transmitter intended to be implanted in a human body, the following test fixture must be used to simulate operation of the implant under actual operating conditions. See  95.605. (i) For measurement purposes to determine compliance with emission limits, the radiating characteristics of an implant transmitter placed in a test fixture should approximate those of an implant transmitter placed in a human body. An appropriate human torso simulator for testing medical implant transmitters consists of a cylindrical Plexiglas container with a size of 30 cm by 76 cm with a sidewall thickness of 0.635 cm. It must be completely filled with a material that is sufficiently fluidic that it will flow around the implant without any voids. The dielectric and conductivity properties of this material must match the dielectric and conductivity properties of human muscle tissue at 403.5 MHz. All emissions measurements will be made using the above specification at a nominal temperature of  S (2025$C. Simple saline solutions do not meet the above criteria. A mounting grid for the implant inside the container must be provided that permits the radiating element or elements of the implant to be positioned vertically and horizontally. The grid should also support any additional implant leads associated with the therapeutic function in a fixed repeatable manner. The implant must be mounted 6 cm from the sidewall and centered vertically within the container. The above fixture shall be placed on a turntable such that the implant transmitter will be located at a nominal 1.5meter height above ground and at a 3meter distance from the measurement antenna. Radiated emissions measurements shall then be performed to insure compliance with the applicable technical specifications. (ii) A formula for a suitable tissue substitute material is defined in the paper Simulated Biological Materials for Electromagnetic Radiation Absorption Studies by G. Hartsgrove, A. Kraszewski, and A. Surowiec as published in "Bioelectromagnetics 8:2936 (1987)". (3) The power radiated in any 300 kHz bandwidth shall not exceed 25 microwatts EIRP. See  95.633(e) and 95.639(g). 16.
