Very High Frequency (VHF) and Ultra High Frequency (UHF) radio systems play a crucial role in enabling wireless communication across various industries and applications. VHF (30–300 MHz) and UHF (300 MHz–3 GHz) radio frequencies offer distinct advantages, with VHF excelling in long-range communications over open spaces and UHF being well-suited for urban environments with obstacles that can interfere with signal propagation. The equipment for VHF and UHF radio systems includes transceivers, antennas, repeaters, and other components designed to transmit and receive voice and data signals. Commonly used in public safety, aviation, marine, military, and industrial settings, these radio systems provide reliable and efficient communication. They are essential for tasks such as coordinating emergency response efforts, managing logistics in large-scale events, or ensuring seamless communication in remote and challenging terrains. VHF UHF radio systems contribute to the backbone of critical communication infrastructure, fostering connectivity and coordination in diverse operational environments. Their versatility, range, and reliability make them indispensable tools in fields where effective communication is paramount.

The Scheme GCS, Group C for VHF and UHF Radio System Equipment, is essential in the field of radio communication, particularly for applications that rely on these frequency bands, such as public safety, military operations, and various professional communication services. This scheme establishes standardized specifications for the design, functionality, and interoperability of VHF and UHF radio equipment. Compliance with Group C ensures that radio system equipment consistently meets performance benchmarks, covering critical factors like signal quality, frequency range, and compatibility with diverse communication protocols. By adhering to this scheme, manufacturers contribute to the development of a standardized and interoperable ecosystem for VHF and UHF radio equipment, enhancing the overall effectiveness and reliability of communication systems critical for public safety and other professional applications.

Note: Manufacturers of VHF UHF Radio System Equipment are required to obtain the mandatory TEC Certification to sell their products in the Indian market.

For manufacturers intending to market VHF UHF Radio System Equipment in India, strict adherence to TEC certification is a mandatory regulatory requirement. TEC certification is essential to ensure that VHF UHF Radio System Equipment complies with specific technical standards and regulations set by the Telecommunication Engineering Centre, a pivotal authority in India responsible for formulating and enforcing technical norms for telecommunication equipment. This certification process is crucial for validating the equipment's adherence to established criteria, encompassing aspects such as signal quality, interference mitigation, and interoperability within the Indian market. By obtaining TEC certification, manufacturers not only signify their commitment to regulatory compliance but also demonstrate the reliability and compatibility of their VHF UHF Radio System Equipment, ensuring seamless integration with the Indian communication network infrastructure.

The TEC Certification for VHF UHF Radio System Equipment includes the following six variants:

• VHF UHF Base Station - Baseband plus Radio
• VHF UHF Base Station - Radio Only
• VHF UHF Baseband Equipment without Radio
• VHF UHF Fixed Station
• VHF UHF Handheld Portable Stations
• VHF UHF Mobile Stations

About TEC Certification

TEC (Telecommunication Engineering Centre) Certification is a crucial accreditation granted by the Telecommunication Engineering Centre, which operates under the Department of Telecommunications, Government of India. TEC Certification ensures that telecommunications equipment complies with the specified technical standards and legal requirements, verifying their quality, safety, and interoperability. This certification is essential for manufacturers and importers seeking to market their telecommunications products in India. Established in 1987, TEC plays a vital role in formulating and enforcing standards to enhance the efficiency and reliability of telecommunication networks and services in the country. TEC Certification is a mark of adherence to these standards, facilitating market access and assuring consumers of the reliability and compliance of the certified products with Indian telecommunications norms.
