Summary and High Points of Docket No. 18-295
This R&O is based on a previously released Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (Notice) which solicited responses from the industry to allow unlicensed use of the 6GHz band (5.925-7.125GHz). The FCC has considered the responses and will be releasing currently allocated spectrum (incumbent) to use by certain unlicensed devices and applications. These unlicensed devices and applications will be required to operate within a rules and coordination construct to protect the incumbent from interference.
* Similar to current Wi-Fi power levels.
