hello all, 

just a reminder on the 60GHz NPRM, see below.  also, that .18 doesn't meet now till 02sep so if anyone has comments to prepare, will have to do off-line calls and emails, to get to a final draft.   as mentioned below, would be best to have a final version to vote on in .18 on 02sept, to wait till 09sept is a little more challenging to get through the EC approval process in time. 

fyi

State-of-the-Art Radar Sensors in 60 GHz Band

FR Document: 2021-16637 Citation: 86 FR 46661

PDF Pages 46661-46672 (12 pages) Permalink

Abstract: In this document, the Commission proposes to revise the Commission's rules to provide expanded operational flexibility to unlicensed field disturbance sensor (FDS) devices (e.g., radars) that operate in the 57-64 GHz band (60 GHz band). The Commission's proposal recognizes the increasing practicality of using mobile radar devices in the 60 GHz band to perform innovative and life-saving functions, including gesture control, detection of unattended children in vehicles, and monitoring of...

•      Comments would be best to be approved in .18 on 02Sep (2 weeks from now), for a 10-day EC ballot.

•      If 09Sep, then needs an early close EC ballot. 

 

so if interested to comment can upload draft comment text to mentor, can go through your Task Group Chair, can let me know, etc.  will discuss today in the .18 weekly call.
