Modifying Emissions Limits for the 24.25-24.45 GHz and 24.75-25.25 GHz Bands; Correction

AGENCY:

Federal Communications Commission.

ACTION:

Proposed rule; correction.

SUMMARY:

In this document, the Commission is correcting the docket number in a proposed rule that appeared in the Federal Register on January 29, 2024. The document proposes to implement certain decisions regarding the 24.25–27.5 GHz band made in the World Radiocommunication Conference held by the International Telecommunication Union (ITU) in 2019 (WRC–19). Specifically, the Commission proposes to align part 30 of the Commission's rules for mobile operations with the Resolution 750 limits on unwanted emissions into the passive 23.6–24.0 GHz band that were adopted at WRC–19. These proposed rule changes would help to facilitate the protection of passive sensors used for weather forecasting and scientific research in the 23.6 GHz–24.0 GHz band, while continuing to promote flexible commercial use of the 24.25–24.45 GHz and 24.75–25.25 GHz bands (collectively, 24 GHz band). The Commission also seeks comment on alternatives to the proposals it makes, and on other related issues.

DATES:

Comments are due on or before February 28, 2024; reply comments are due on or before March 14, 2024. Written comments on the Initial Regulatory Flexibility Analysis (IRFA) in this document must have a separate and distinct heading designating them as responses to the IRFA and must be submitted by the public on or before February 28, 2024.
