Description
Published draft Spectrum Rules and Policies for the Operation of Unmanned Aircraft Systems
On 23 December 2023, US Federal Communications Commission (FCC) issued a proposal to regulate the licensed spectrum for unmanned aircraft (drones) use. The proposed rules aim to allow the use of wireless communications in pilotless aerial systems in the 5030-5091 MHz band. The FCC proposed to amend the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) to allow the use of drones in the 5030-5091 MHz band. The amended section entitled "unmanned aircraft control services" outlines the rules for the use of drones, from general rules to technical requirements.
