Test & Tagging

Major events require substantial radio resources for audiovisual purposes (cameras, wireless microphones, order systems, links, etc.) or for organization (PMR, timing, etc.). Thus, an important step for the success of a major event is the one of the test and tagging of radio equipment.

It has to be done before the event and consists in checking the conformity of the equipment to be introduced on the venue of the event and the compliance with the authorized frequencies. It facilitates the control of the spectrum operated during the event and contributes to solve frequencies jamming that could occur.

Major events require significant radio resources, both for audiovisual operations (cameras, microphones, order systems, remote control, telemetry, etc.) and for the needs of the organisers and private security (PMR, real-time tracking or geolocation, etc.).

Thus, checking the conformity of radio equipment is essential to the success of major events.

This step is prior to the event and consists of checking that the equipment to be brought onto the event site complies with regulations and is consistent with the authorised frequencies. It can take the form of equipment labelling and facilitates spectrum monitoring during the event, helping to prevent or resolve any interference.
