The Royal Meteorological Institute of Belgium (KMI/IRM) and the BIPT work together to detect radar interference. Radar images can be disturbed by transmitters that use the same frequency band as the radar (around 5 GHz). Those are often powerful Wi-Fi transmitters providing a wireless link between points, e.g. at a camping site or at a company that wants to wants to link several of its buildings by means of a wireless internet. A Wi-Fi transmitter has to continuously scan the frequency band to find out whether a weather radar is using the same frequency. If so the Wi-Fi transmitter has to adapt its frequency by means of DFS (Dynamic Frequency Selection). Unfortunately, certain transmitters do not, resulting in interference to weather radars. The BIPT and the KMI/IRM have decided to exchange more information and to establish an action plan to identify undesirable jammers in the future.

Parcels have come to assume the postal items emotional value. Users are generally satisfied with the current postal network.

Article 5 of the European Postal Directive lays down that the universal service should evolve ‘[…] in response to the technical, economic and social environment and to the needs of users’. That is why BIPT publishes every three years a study to monitor and map the needs of postal users. The consumer preferences have been analysed by means of a quantitative survey on the one hand and a complementary qualitative survey on the other. By combining the two research methods it is possible to perform a more in-depth analysis of the needs of residential and professional postal users. Both surveys are important for all stakeholders. On the one hand users are informed about current and future challenges of the UPS. On the other, operators get an insight into the needs of the postal users, so that they can zero in on them. Finally, the surveys make it easier for the legislator to make the supply side of the UPS correspond as much as possible with the demand side of the UPS.

Every three years BIPT publishes a study on the needs of postal users. A survey was conducted with various categories of postal users at the end of 2016 in order to get an overall picture of the consumers’ views regarding the universal postal service in Belgium. The survey aimed to map out consumer needs that might have changed, as well as certain trends from a consumer’s point of view.

Article 126 of the Act of 13 June 2015 on electronic communications, completed by the Royal Decree of 19 September 2013 obliges certain operators to retain identification data, mainly for the benefit of judicial authorities. Once per year these operators have to provide BIPT with statistics on the access to those data by virtue of that Decree. These statistics are then integrated in an official report that is transmitted to the Minister of Justice and the Minister in charge of electronic communications. With a view to transparency towards the public, BIPT publishes a consolidated public version of that report which includes the statistics of all operators for the years 2014 and 2015 on its website. By giving preference to a consolidated and validated communication of the results of the entire sector, by acting out its role as a third-party confidential advisor, bestowed upon BIPT by law, the latter wishes to provide the transparency required to keep the end-user’s trust in the electronic communications services at a high level. This way we also avoid the burden that would befall each operator to have to communicate his own statistics individually, the hypotheses of which would perhaps differ from one operator to another. This includes: the numbers regarding the requests by administrations for the years 2014 and 2105; the number of data transmitted; the numbers regarding the deadlines following which these data have been collected; the requests that have remained unanswered.
