Sennheiser emphasizes importance of reliable radio frequencies for entertainment industry
Be it a theatrical event or a music studio , Bluetooth headphones have become a necessary equipment for the Entertainment Industry . December 1 pronounced the beginning of the “ Alliance for Broadcasting and Cultural Frequencies ”. This German institution works on reducing the frequency for its present operators .
The initiative for the 2023 World Radiocommunication Conference targets to monitor the spectrum usage and needs which is known as ITU-Region 1 . This covers a frequency range of 470 – 960 MHz and tracks the continent of Europe , Africa & Middle East . This panel discussion hopes to bring in regulatory alteration to the frequency of 470 – 694 MHz ’ s . This span is currently being utilized by wireless microphones and few other audio devices .
In context of further spectrum loss ( for theatre production & LIVE Events ), more development requires to be tweaked-in as the officials are already challenged with a shortage of radio frequency . Hence , global availability for a microphone in the range of 470- 694 MHz is necessary as this is what the Organization is aiming upon .
Since past many years , cultural frequencies have been used by various departments such as weather track , Culture , Radio Astronomy and Broadcasting . Also , it has been considered trustworthy and has achieved a great recognition Internationally .
One major concern towards this sound frequency is that few devices demand for the allocation of 470-694 MHZ which is co-primary . This can definitely ascertain a flexible usage of the frequency Range . But a Live Broadcast doesn ’ t require that amount of MHz as it requires authenticity . Also , a sufficient number of free frequencies should be available at each venue .
In the discussion panel of the World Radiocommunication Centre , there was a clear
consensus of opinion between the German Federal States and the German governing parties about the continuation of the existing and successful use of cultural frequencies .
In addition to Sennheiser , other manufacturers , users and broadcasters are also actively involved in the discussions at the ITU-R and in the national preparatory groups . For broadcasting and culture , it is about reliability in the use of the last remaining global frequency resources . It ’ s not about “ flexibility ”, which here would be synonymous with an ongoing debate at a wide variety of levels in favour of the cellular mobile industry , which is already served far beyond its needs .
