Meaning
Statutory Japanese certification framework verifying that radio equipment complies with Ordinance Concerning Technical Regulations Conformity Certification under the Radio Law of Japan. Obtaining mic technical conformity grants legal authorization to distribute, install and operate specified wireless devices in the Japanese domestic market. Registered certification bodies conduct compliance evaluations on hardware samples.
Ordinance Scope
Technical regulations specify frequency stability, occupied bandwidth and unwanted emission limits across regulated frequency bands. Attaining mic technical conformity requires submitting technical documentation, circuit schematics and test reports to an accredited Japanese certification agency. Approvals grant equipment registration numbers for commercial sales in Japan.
Testing Standard
Accredited testing laboratories perform conducted and radiated radio frequency measurements according to official Japanese test methods. Evaluating mic technical conformity involves measuring carrier frequency stability across operational supply voltages and ambient temperature ranges. Antenna power measurements verify that transmitted field strength stays within statutory limits for specific frequency allocations.
Testing protocols require recording spurious emission levels across harmonic frequencies under extreme operating conditions.
Certification Label
Compliant radio equipment must display the Giteki mark alongside a unique certification number assigned by the registered agency. Manufacturers print this mark directly on product labels, shielding cans or digital screen displays prior to product shipment. Unmarked devices cannot legally operate within Japanese jurisdiction.
