Connect2HealthFCC - Wireless Health and Medical Devices Background

The FCC's Office of Engineering and Technology (OET) conducts many activities relating to wireless medical devices, including equipment authorization (for products such as smartphones, car door remote controls, Wi-Fi devices, baby monitors, and personal computers); testing for radio frequency safety; and regulation of radio spectrum.

OET has a long history of working to enable health and medical devices. Some of its more recent accomplishments include:

MedRadio (Medical Device Radiocommunications Service): In the course of two rulemaking proceedings, the Commission allocated spectrum and adopted technical rules for innovative new body-worn and implanted medical radio devices that can provide a variety of diagnostic and therapeutic functions from diabetes and heart monitors to pacemakers and cardiofribrilators.

Medical Body Area Networks (MBANs): In 2012, the FCC released an Order to allocate spectrum for Medical Body Area Networks (MBANs), making the U.S. the first country in the world to make spectrum available for this specific usage. MBANs are networks of wireless sensors, often no bigger than a Band-Aid, which can transmit data on a patient's vital health indicators to their doctor or hospital. For more information, see the MBANs Fact Sheet and a listing of Frequency Bands for Medical Devices.

Medical Micropower Networks (MMNs): In 2011, the FCC adopted rules to enable a new generation of wireless medical devices that can be used to restore functions to paralyzed limbs. MMNs are ultra-low power wideband networks consisting of transmitters implanted in the body that take the place of damaged nerves, restoring sensation and mobility.

Retinal Implants: In November 2011, OET granted a waiver of the Commission's rules to Second Sight Medical Products, Inc. to allow it to obtain FCC certification for and market its Argus II Retinal Prosthesis System which is a medical implant system designed to treat profoundly blind people suffering from advanced retinal degenerative diseases. For more information, see the waiver (https://docs.fcc.gov/public/attachments/DA-11-1951A1.pdf)

Experimental Licensing Program: In May 2012, the FCC announced a plan to cut red tape and increase spectrum flexibility for testing new wireless health innovations, to speed new wireless health technologies to market. The new experimental licensing regime will create more flexibility and streamlined processes for testing new wireless medical devices.

FCC-FDA Memorandum of Understanding: In 2010, the FCC entered into an unprecedented partnership with the Food and Drug Administration, working together to ensure that communications-related medical innovations can swiftly and safely be brought to market. In June 2012, the FCC issued a letter in response to an inquiry from Reps. Walden, Bilbray, Blackburn, Burgess, Gingrey, and Pitts regarding wireless medical devices and the FCC's partnership with FDA, providing a comprehensive overview of activities that the two agencies have undertaken since enacting the MOU in 2010.

IMPLANTS

Nano-Implants for Wireless Brain Interfacing

We are developing nano-devices using meta-materials that can non-invasively and remotely monitor and modulate our biological system. The requirements of the system are: 1> they should be as small as possible such that the volume displacement of tissue due to the placement of the device is minimal, 2> They should be untethered/wireless such that they can be remotely controlled. Such a device will sense the biological environment and send the information to a system outside the body in real time. The device will also have the capability to do internal analysis of the sensed data and depending on the analysis results, take further action such as electrical stimulation or drug delivery. The device will harvest energy from external applied fields for its functioning and also modulate the external fields for communicating sensed data.

The possibilities with such bioelectronic devices are endless, and we are exploring, among others, brain activity recording at a large scale with a precision of single neuron, activity recording in spinal cord and peripheral nervous system, monitoring tumor microenvironment, observing response to pathology development or external stimulus at a single cell level along with integrated functionalities such as stimulation and drug delivery.

Medical Implant Communications Service Frequency Table

MICS Designated Frequency Ranges MICS = 402 to 405 MHz

This table is the frequency chart for the legal Medical Implant Communications Service. There is only 1 designated range (as of 4/1/2006 still) of frequencies. Each device must be registered for compliance and conflict avoidance. MICS, as it is called, uses certified private use grade, low power transmitters similar to Personal Radio Services equipment. However, the 402-405 MHz frequency band is available for MICS operations on a shared, secondary basis. The FCC determined that, compared to other available frequencies, the 402-405 MHz frequency band best meets the technical requirements of the MICS for a number of reasons. The 402-405 MHz frequencies have propagation characteristics conducive to the transmission of radio signals within the human body. In addition, equipment designed to operate in the 402-405 MHz band can fully satisfy the requirements of the MICS with respect to size, power, antenna performance, and receiver design. Further, the use of the 402-405 MHz band for the MICS is compatible with international frequency allocations. Finally, the use of the 402-405 MHz frequency band for the MICS does not pose a significant risk of interference to other radio operations in that band. MICS systems consist of the transmitters connected to medical implant devices, and programming, monitoring and control equipment. A Medical implant device is generally regarded as apparatus that is placed inside the human body for the purpose of performing diagnostic or therapeutic functions, such as cardiac pacemakers and defibrillators. Operation in the MICS is permitted by rule and without an individual license issued by the FCC. A person is permitted to operate medical implant transmitters connected to medical implant devices that have been implanted in that person by a duly authorized health care professional and medical implant programmer/control transmitters associated with their medical implant transmitter(s). Duly authorized health care professionals are permitted by rule to operate MICS transmitters. Manufacturers of medical implant devices and MICS transmitters and their representatives are authorized to operate transmitters in this service for the purpose of demonstrating such equipment to duly authorized health care professionals. No entity that is a foreign government or which is acting in its capacity as a representative of a foreign government is eligible to operate a MICS transmitter. The term 'duly authorized health care professional' means a physician or other individual authorized under state or federal law to provide health care services using medical implant devices. Operations that comply with the requirements of this part may be conducted under manual or automatic control.

The MICS was officially adopted by the FCC on October 10, 1999; this page was created the same day. The service rules for the equipment and use of the MICS include limitations on transmitter output power, out-of-band emissions, and protection of other services. Users of MICS transmitters must cooperate in the selection and use of channels in order to reduce interference and to make the most effective use of the authorized facilities. Most importantly, channels must be selected so as to avoid interference to other MICS transmissions. As a safeguard against such MICS to MICS interference, external medical implant programmer/control MICS transmitters must incorporate a mechanism for monitoring the channel or channels that the MICS system devices intend to occupy and, unless there is a medical implant event, may not initiate a MICS communications session unless certain 'access criteria' are met. A medical implant event is defined as an occurrence or the lack of an occurrence recognized by a medical implant device, or a duly authorized health care professional, that requires the transmission of data from a medical implant transmitter in order to protect the safety or well being of the person in whom the medical implant transmitter has been implanted. The Commission has clarified that regularly scheduled transmissions that are not instigated by a change in the patient’s medical condition do not qualify as medical implant events. A request for waiver to permit certification of implanted devices that emit periodic scheduled transmissions is pending. In addition, all MICS operations, as a consequence of their secondary status, must not cause harmful interference to stations in the Meteorological Aids, Meteorological Satellite, or Earth Exploration Satellite Services operating in the same or adjacent frequencies. Further, MICS stations must accept interference from such Meteorological Aids, Meteorological Satellite, or Earth Exploration Satellite Service stations. Any non-implanted MICS apparatus must be made available for inspection upon request by the FCC. Persons operating implanted medical implant transmitters must cooperate reasonably with the FCC in the resolution of interference complaints.

"We are witnessing explosive growth in wireless medical technologies, including devices that control bodily functions and measure an array of physiological parameters. Even software, such as a smartphone application, can be considered a medical device depending on its function. Other types of wireless medical devices can communicate in some manner with landline networks, cellular systems, or broadband facilities that access the Internet."

Implant Technology

These rules are being violated every second of the day by the people who operate the Body Area Network connected to Targeted Individuals and by radio communications that operate the horrendous V2K assaults. There are no exceptions to these rules for any reason that can be read in these rules.

"A person is permitted to operate medical implant transmitters connected to medical implant devices that have been implanted in that person by a duly authorized health care professional and medical implant programmer/control transmitters associated with their medical implant transmitter(s). Duly authorized health care professionals are permitted by rule to operate MICS transmitters.",

NOTE: THIS DOES NOT SAY ORDINARY PERSONS WORKING IN MILITARY , LAW ENFORCEMENT, FIREMEN, VETERANS, DRUG ADDICTS, COPS, CAPS, CONTRACTORS or "VOLUNTEERS" or DISPATCHER ORGANIZED STALKERS OF ANY KIND CAN CONNECT OR OPERATE YOUR IMPLANTS. There was no legal authorization for the implants to be implanted.

YET, THIS HAPPENS EVERY HOUR OF EVERY DAY ANYONE IS IMPLANTED WITH THE BODY AREA NETWORK AND BECOMES A THING IN THE INTERNET OF THINGS.

This technology has not been released to the public as yet, it hasn't even been through clinical trials, that's what Targeted Individuals are being used for. Instead of Brown Shirted Hitler Youth, we have neighborhood mothers, fathers, kids, aunts, uncles, grandmothers and grandfathers using their phones to connect TI's when they are shopping and they are hit with microwave that operate their implants to make them fall down, have pain explode in their feet, or make their feet and legs go numb. They can make a TI lose control of their elimination. They can be hit the TI in the head with pain.

This has been going on for a at least 20 years now. Many TI's have been killed with this weaponization of the communication system. This is what Infragard and their partners do to people when they are out and about going to work, going to concerts or sporting events, or just going to the beach.

Some TI's have already been victim of this type of injection. This is a real experience in 2013. I made an appointment to go to the doctor. Like always, someone from the gov told them I was coming and the receptionist was told to connect me with her phone in some way. That became very obvious when the connection actually did connect.

The night before I went to the doctor, I received an injection in the middle of my chest in the night. There was a bump with redness all around.

I went to the doctor, checked in and sat down. The receptionist got her phone out and started using it. She went outside with her phone. I had to go to my car for something and when I re-entered the waiting room, my head went on fire. All around my skull, it was heated like it was on fire. It lasted about 10 seconds, but that was enough, I knew what she had done and I knew what the injection was for. The phone directed energy towards me that reacted with whatever the injection contained - metal particles. That had never ever happened to me before and it has never happened after that. However, I sill have part of the implant in my chest.
