| Outline and Purpose of the Course | In recent years, radio wave technology such as satellite communication, cellular phones, wireless LAN, and so on has been remarkably developed. In postwar Japan, radio wave administration is promoted mainly on the basis of the Radio Law and the Broadcast Act. In particular, the Radio Law, which aims to promote public welfare by ensuring the fair and efficient utilization of radio waves (Article 1), fulfills a key role in a society that uses radio waves. This course discusses the establishment of radio wave legislation and basic matters on the Radio Law and its related laws and regulations. This is a required course for those wishing to obtain qualification as the First Class On-The Ground Special Radio Operator or the Third Class Maritime Special Radio Operator. | |||
