Issue Date: May 2024
Technical staff from regulatory authorities or other private and public organisations apply the skills and knowledge in this unit. They combine technical radio communications skills with broader organisational and administrative skills to evaluate and select antenna systems in a range of commercial and community contexts.
Technical staff may be responsible for small projects or parts of larger projects, and for the coordination and direction of small technical groups.
This unit describes the performance outcomes, skills and knowledge required for the selection of an antenna system for radio communications to meet given performance requirements.
This unit does not cover the estimation or analysis of radio signals within the desired area of coverage or over a specific radio path. This is covered in ICTRFN5179A Evaluate and analyse radio frequency (RF) signal coverage plots.
No licensing, legislative, regulatory or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of endorsement but users should confirm requirements with the relevant federal, state or territory authority.
