5925 – 6425 MHz Non-Specific SRD Applications & Wireless Access Systems 23 dBm (200mW) mean e.i.r.p.

Mean e.i.r.p. density for in
band emissions – 10
dBm/MHz

An adequate spectrum
sharing mechanism shall be
implemented for channel
access and occupation
Restricted to Low Power
Indoor (LPI) use only
Outdoor use (including in
road vehicles) is not
permitted.

band emissions 1 dBm/
MHz. An adequate spectrum
sharing mechanism shall be
implemented for channel
access and occupation.
Very Low Power (VLP)
Indoor and outdoor use.
Use of drones is prohibited.
