Introduction

The APT Wireless Group (AWG) is covering various aspects of emerging wireless systems including IMT/IMT-Advanced  to meet the upcoming digital convergence era in the Asia-Pacific region. It is assisting the process of providing cost effective radiocommunications solutions and facilitating the transfer of technology.

The Terms of References of the APT Wireless Group are as follows:

  • Carry out studies and develop outputs to facilitate the harmonization of spectrum usage, the efficient and effective deployment of radiocommunication systems, and the development of new radiocommunication technologies and applications
  • Support and assist APT Members in using the radio frequency spectrum and deploying radio network effectively
  • Share information on spectrum usage and emerging radiocommunication technologies and applications, within Asia-Pacific region
  • Encourage radiocommunication industry research and development, and promote related telecommunication business activities
  • Perform technical and operational studies to support for World Radiocommunication Conferences (WRCs) if reqeusted by the APT Preparatory Group for WRCs
  • To communicate with, as well as develop APT proposals to related international and regional organizations on radiocommunication matters, as appropriate, to promote interests of APT Members.

Objectives

The principal objectives of the AWG are:

  • To facilitate regional harmonization of spectrum usage.
  • To assist and support APT Members in using the radio frequency spectrum effectively, inluding the facilitation of AFIS.
