The National Radio Research Agency (RRA) announced a revision to the technical standards for earth stations on October 15, 2024, to facilitate the smooth introduction of low Earth orbit satellite communications services in Korea. The public consultation period for this revision will be open until December 13, 2024.


• Background

The goal is to establish technical standards to enable citizens to access high-speed internet anywhere, anytime through low Earth orbit satellite communications in Korea. In particular, new technical standards for earth stations (user terminals) will be introduced to ensure the smooth adoption of these services.


• Regulatory Details

New technical standards will be introduced for user terminal earth stations that communicate with non-geostationary satellites used for fixed satellite services at altitudes below 600 km.


• Objectives and Expected Benefits

This regulation is expected to enable smooth communication in areas where the construction of traditional communication networks is difficult, such as remote islands, mountainous regions, maritime areas, and aviation. Additionally, it will broaden users' options by offering a variety of communication methods.

The revised Intelligent Robot Act, which came into effect on November 17, 2023, is expected to lead to an increasing encounter with robots delivering food or goods while walking on sidewalks. For the safety of pedestrians, robots allowed to move on sidewalks are restricted to a weight of 500 kg or less and a width of 80 cm or less. The speed of movement is regulated to be 5-15 km/h depending on the weight. To operate a business using robots, it is necessary to obtain operational safety certification from a designated certification authority. The certification authority will issue a safety certification, similar to a 'pedestrian license,' certifying the safe operation of the robot, after evaluating 16 criteria, including compliance with operational zones, pedestrian crossing, dynamic stability, speed control, and remote operation. Furthermore, the robot must comply with traffic laws, and in the case of jaywalking or violation of safety regulations, the operator may be subject to

  On December 13th, the government announced plans to enhance the competitiveness of the secondary battery industry during an emergency economic ministerial meeting.   A bill will be introduced by 2024 to systematically promote the post-use battery industry. A three-stage safety inspection system will also be implemented for the secure distribution and utilization of electric vehicles with used batteries and reusable products. Batteries meeting performance criteria are recognized as products from the dismantling stage, with extended storage periods for recycling and mandatory information input at each lifecycle stage through legislation. The patent review period for secondary batteries will be shortened from 21 to 10 months. Exemptions for electric sales permits will be granted to electric two-wheeler battery exchange services, and support will be provided for new markets like secondary battery subscriptions. Tax deductions for overseas resource development investments, sta

What is KC certification in Korea?

-

  KC Certification KC stands for "Korea Certification" and is a mandatory certification system established by the Korean government to ensure that products manufactured in Korea or imported from abroad comply with domestic safety and technical standards so that only certified products can be distributed and sold. It plays an important role in ensuring the safety and performance of products in Korea, protecting users and the environment. For companies looking to enter the Korean market, KC certification is a prerequisite for customs clearance and product sales. With KC certification, companies can lower the barriers to entry, gain a competitive edge, and successfully enter the Korean market. KC certification is broadly categorized into electromagnetic certification and safety certification. Since these fall under different government ministries, companies need to undergo separate certification processes for each. ✅ KC EMC ✅  KC Safety 👉 Contact GCA Tel. +82-31-360-8180 Email:
