📡Proposed Regulations on 37 GHz Band Spectrum and Emissions Limits
In this document, the Federal Communications Commission (Commission) seeks comment on three issues: adopting a more stringent emissions limit for Upper Microwave Flexible Use Service (UMFUS) operations above 37 GHz; whether the first phase of the coordination mechanism adopted in the companion final rule, published elsewhere in this issue of the Federal Register, can be enhanced by consideration of additional factors; and whether it might be possible to replace the same coordination mechanism with a dynamic spectrum management system (DSMS). The Commission also proposes to correct an error in a power flux density (PFD) figure in one of its technical rules for UMFUS.

In this document, the Federal Communications Commission (Commission) makes available 600 megahertz of high-frequency spectrum for flexible fixed and mobile use by establishing a mechanism for access to the 37-37.6 GHz band (Lower 37 GHz band). This spectrum, which is shared between non-Federal and Federal operators, can be used for fixed wireless broadband, Internet of Things (IoT), or other innovative services. Crafted in collaboration with the National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA) and with input from the Department of Defense (DoD), this new regime provides access to a block of millimeter wave spectrum with low barriers to entry.
