Introduction

Games of the XXXII Olympiad and Tokyo 2020 Paralympic Games (collectively “Tokyo 2020 Games”) will be held 23 July ~ 8 August 2021 and 24 August ~ 5 September 2021, respectively. Numerous radio equipment is expected to be utilized during the Tokyo 2020 Games for TV image productions, news reports, Games Timing, and other Games operations. This Wireless Equipment Usage Guide is created by the Tokyo Organising Committee of the Olympic and Paralympic Games (“Tokyo 2020”) for the purpose of providing information for the radio users in venues to optimise the use of wireless devices, including when the same frequency band has to be shared, and to be aware of how to avoid interference to or from other radio users.

Observing Rules for Use of Radio Frequencies in Japan

In Tokyo, Japans political and economic centre, the use of radio frequencies is very congested. There are many cases where the same frequency band must be shared with number of users. It is therefore imperative that the rules of Japanese Radio Act are followed by the radio users. If you do not follow the rules, you may not only interfere or obstruct other radio communications, but also be on the receiving end of the interference. Radio equipment users are required to follow the rules.

From Spectrum Application to Using Radio Equipment in Venues

When a user wishes to use radio equipment in the venue, Japanese licence for radio stations plus permission from Tokyo 2020 must be obtained beforehand. The procedure is shown in the flowchart below. ① application submission ~ application accepted ~ frequency coordination ~ notification of allocated frequency ~ scheduling T&T reservation ~ provisional approval issued

② provisional approval issued ~ Testing of equipment ~ licence and permission granted ~ Tagging of equipment ~ equipment approved for use ③ approval of use ~ using equipment at venue

※This document will give guidance in the stage indicated as ③ in the diagram below. See “4. Using Radio Equipment” for more information.

Using Radio Equipment

If you wish to use radio equipment in the venue, you need to firstly receive provisional approval for the frequency, pass the radio equipment inspection and receive approval tag. Even when the equipment already has Japanese licence, as long as they are going to be used in the Tokyo 2020 venue, they need to have Tags. Wireless devices can be used in the venue only when Tags are attached.

Check before you start using wireless equipment

Wireless devices must meet the technical standard and be used correctly in order to avoid interference. Followings are the requisite for using wireless devices.

① Apply for frequencies Please refer to the Spectrum Application Guide https://tokyo2020.org/en/organising-committee/environmental-arrangement/

② After Test & Tagging schedule is fixed, undergo the inspection and receive the Tag. For inquiries regarding Test & Tagging, Contact: [email protected]

When using your wireless equipment Wireless equipment must be used correctly under the approval condition in order to optimise its ability and to avoid interfering other wireless equipment. Keep the following in mind when using your wireless equipment. ① Fill out your reliable contact detail in the contact form (sent to you at the time of Test and Tagging reservation) and submit it to Tokyo 2020. If you have not done so before Test & Tagging, please fill out the contact field in your Provisional Approval letter and bring it to the Spectrum Desk at the time of Test & Tagging. ② Radio licence from Japanese government must be obtained in advance for using wireless equipment in Japan. Licence for all the wireless equipment used by overseas stakeholders during Tokyo 2020 Games is obtained by Tokyo 2020 in their behalf. ③ Use of wireless equipment is permitted only after passing the radio equipment inspection conducted by Japanese government, and after receiving the approval tag of Tokyo 2020. The approval condition of each device is managed with the Tag. ④ When the approval of equipment is venue-specific, it cannot be used at other venues. ⑤ During Ceremony period, only devices with Ceremony Tag can be used at Olympic Stadium (OLS). Equipment using the mobile phone lines such as IP radios, however, can be used without a Ceremony Tag.

⑥ The approval is valid from the day the approval tag was issued until the last day of Tokyo 2020 Games (Olympics and/or Paralympics). If your equipment received radio interference during this period, notify Call Centre and give the name of your organisation, your name, contact number, time/place of the interference, the frequency you were using, and the description of the situation. Technology Call Centre Contact details e-mail: [email protected] Phone ＊English Support:+81-3-6632-2937 ＊Japanese:+81-3-6631-2020 [We are recording calls to improve the quality of service for the customers] ⑦ Make sure before reporting interference incident, - your device does not use frequencies designated for systems that share the same frequency bands such as digital convenience radio, wireless LAN, RFID or DECT, because they are approved on the condition of “allowable interference”. You have accepted that communication on these frequencies may not be possible as expected when they are congested. Even when conversations get mixed, we do not respond to them as resolvable interference cases. - that the device is in proper working order - that the device is properly charged. ⑧ Request made by the Japanese government or Tokyo 2020 to suspend use of wireless device must be complied with immediately. ⑨ In order to eliminate harmful interference, Japanese government and Tokyo 2020 will conduct radio monitoring and spot checks by placing radio monitoring facilities and personnel at all venues. ⑩ User of radio device that has not gone through the official procedure as stipulated in the Radio Act of Japan, or that deviates the approval conditions may be punished (imprisonment for a period not exceeding 1 year, or a fine not exceeding 1 million yen) under Japanese Law. Rules must be followed. ⑪ Be aware that using multiple devices simultaneously (the transmission and reception timings overlap), at the same or adjacent frequency, at physically close positions, may cause suppression of sensitivity and cause the devices to be inoperable. The basic characteristic of radio makes it difficult to avoid such situation altogether, but it may be effective to temporarily place distance between devices or shift the timing of use.

⑫ Available radio frequency in Japan is very scarce and interference is likely to occur. We strongly recommend that radio communication at Tokyo 2020 Games is limited to only when the wired connection is not available. ⑬ If the approved frequencies for transmitting and receiving differ on your device, make sure they are set accordingly. ⑭ If you are using the same frequency as other users, make sure that no one else is using the device before emitting radio waves. ⑮ Japanese outlets (Type A) are Alternative Current, single-phase, two-wire system AC 100V, either 50Hz or 60Hz. Have appropriate converter, etc. ready as necessary.

Using LAN equipment (such as Wi-Fi devices)

Channels available for Wi-Fi and other wireless LAN (Wi-Fi) devices are used for important systems of the Games Timing and operations. Please note that use of the radio equipment is prohibited unless it is set at the authorised frequency (channel) and at locations designated in the provisional approval so as not to interfere with the Games operations. ・Use of mobile Wi-Fi routers (pocket Wi-Fi, Mi-Fi, etc) is prohibited within secure perimeters unless the use is specifically approved and used in a stationary manner. ・Use of Wi-Fi Access Point function (such as Tethering and Ad-hoc mode) of mobile terminals like personal computers and smartphones is prohibited. Be advised that Tokyo 2020 may request to check the SSID of your LAN device at the time of Test & Tagging.

Radio equipment usable without Tokyo 2020 approval

The following radio equipment do not require approval from Tokyo 2020 for use within venues;

① Mobile phones serviced by Japanese mobile carriers ② Mobile phones used by those who have brought them in from overseas that conform to the international technical standards equivalent to the ones

stipulated in the Japanese Radio Act, and use international roaming or SIM card of Japanese mobile carriers ③ Handsets (using 2.4GHz band, 5.2GHz band, 5.3GHz band and 5.6GHz band: e.g. Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, etc.) of the wireless device of the low-power data communication system with a conformity mark* that has been certified to comply with the technical standards stipulated in the Japanese Radio Act. However, the digital still camera or a wireless file transmitter with a wireless LAN access point function, even when it is used only as a wireless LAN client, is subject to authorisation from Tokyo 2020. * Radio equipment that conforms to the technical standards stipulated by the Radio Act of Japan is marked with the "Technical Regulations Conformity Certification" mark as seen in the figure below.

【Technical Regulations Conformity Certification mark】

④ Handsets (using 2.4GHz band, 5.2GHz band, 5.3GHz band and 5.6GHz band) of the wireless device of the low-power data communication system that conforms to the international technical standards equivalent to the ones stipulated in the Japanese Radio Act, that are used within 90 days of entering Japan (Example: devices with FCC certification or CE mark, and have Wi-Fi Alliance or Bluetooth SIG logo, etc.)

Bluetooth mobile Smart Phone headset, etc.

【Examples of radio equipment that do not require Tokyo 2020 approval】

Radio Monitoring in Japan

Should radio interference occur during the Games time, Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications (“MIC”) will immediately try to locate and eliminate the source of interference using radio monitoring system. MIC currently operates a 24-hour response system of radio monitoring to keep strict order against illegal radio activities such as sabotaging significant radios of police, fire, aviation, maritime, or mobile phones and broadcasting. On top of the existing monitoring system, MIC will fortify responses by introducing new radio monitoring systems at competition venues and their surroundings during the Games period. Tokyo 2020 will also conduct radio monitoring in cooperation with MIC to maximise the use of radio devices at venues, etc. without any interference.

Other Test & Tagging at IBC/MPC (Tokyo Big Sight), OV/PV (Olympic/Paralympic Village) and UAC (Uniform/Accreditation Centre)

Spectrum Desk is situated outside of the secure perimeter, with the exception of IBC/MPC and OLV/PLV. At IBC/MPC and OLV/PLV, as the Spectrum Desk is placed within the secure perimeter, radio equipment can go through the PSA (Pedestrian Screening Area)/ VSA (Vehicle Screening Area) but must be brought to the Spectrum Desk to undergo Test & Tagging before they can be used. At UAC, be sure to have your radio equipment inspected and approved before using them.

FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions)

Q1: If my wireless device is licensed to use frequencies, can other similar wireless devices be used in the venue without Test & Tagging? A1: Each wireless device needs to receive approval for use and has to have a Tag attached. No device can be used in a venue without undergoing Test & Tagging.

Q2: Can I use backpack camera (i.e. LiveU, TVU, etc) using mobile carrier connection at venue without approval from Tokyo 2020? A2: There is no need for spectrum application or approval procedure. However, we recommend that a Tag is attached to the device in order to avoid being mistaken as uninspected at entrance screening. Tags can be obtained at the Spectrum Desk.

Recommendations for wireless equipment installation

All installation of wireless equipment at Tokyo 2020 Games competition venues and relevant sites must abide by Japanese Radio Act and international standards, and must be used at frequencies approved by Tokyo 2020 Organising Committee (Tokyo 2020). User of wireless equipment is required to follow instructions of Tokyo 2020 and take measures to maintain spectrum environment free of harmful interference by cooperating with all other radio users. Please note that installation cost of filters to eliminate interfering frequency should be borne by the radio user.

To minimise the impact of harmful interference on radio communication system and maximise the effectiveness of the wireless system, the following points should be considered.

・The wireless equipment and antenna conform to each other.

・Where multiple number of antennas are fixed in a limited space, they need to be mounted as far apart as possible to avoid interference caused by interaction.

・Keep an appropriate distance between wireless users. If another device with an adjacent frequency is used in the close proximity, sensitivity suppression effect of the receiver may disable reception.

・When intermodulation occurs and the allocated frequency cannot be used, it can be eliminated by inserting a bandpass filter or notch filter into the wireless device. (Non-linear characteristics of the receiving equipment causes intermodulation when many wireless devices are used at the same time.)

・If the installation is near a portable base station with high communication traffic, the base stations radiation of radio wave is expected to increase. If your reception is interfered, it is recommended that a filter be inserted to mitigate the impact. 19

・Be sure to operate at the allocated frequency. The common cause of harmful interference in past Games is incorrect or offset frequencies other than the approved frequencies.

・Make sure the power setting of your device is below the approved power level. Exceeding the approved antenna power can be the cause of harmful interference. Please operate on the minimum transmitter power required for communication so more users can use wireless equipment.

・Devise a way to avoid using multiple wireless microphones at the same time. When two or more microphones are used with a separation of less than 1 meter, they are more likely to generate radio interference in the intermodulation product.
