Ofcom consultation on 24GHz car short range radar

The latest Ofcom consultation is on Ofcom’s proposal to exempt the use of automotive short-range radar equipment at 24GHz from Wireless Telegraphy licensing. A summary of the proposal and the full document can be found on Ofcom’s website.

The proposal would mean that short-range radar would operate in the Primary Amateur and Amateur Satellite Services’ band at 24.0 - 24.05GHz as an interim measure, prior to its long-term allocation at 79GHz. The remainder of the Amateur 24GHz band, at 24.05 to 24.25GHz, is already allocated only on a Secondary basis.

Further information can be found on the UK Microwave Group website, including a critique on the Ofcom consultation written by Mike Dixon, G3PFR.

The consultation period closes on 23 May
