Concern for 24Ghz band

Earlier this year Ofcom announced an exemption for Railway Level Crossings systems to use a part of the 24GHz band where we have secondary status.

More recently, on 6 October, the European Union's Radio Spectrum Committee published a review of automotive ultra-wideband short-range radars that currently operate across the entire 24GHz band and which have caused considerable concern.

The Radio Society of Great Britain actively participates in consultations on these matters and, along with IARU Region 1, is working to protect and enhance our 24-24.05GHz Primary allocation where innovative DX and Beacon activity is concentrated.
