Wi-Fi advocates get win from FCC with vote to allow higher-power devices
摘要
美国联邦通信委员会计划在6GHz Wi-Fi频段授权一类新型无线设备，允许其以高于当前限制的功率运行，并考虑提高部分仅限室内使用的无线设备的功率上限。委员会将于1月29日投票决定是否创建此类“地理围栏可变功率”设备，它们可在户外运行，支持AR/VR等高数据速率应用，但需通过地理围栏系统避免干扰固定微波链路和射电天文台。FCC主席将此举措归功于特朗普总统推动创
The Federal Communications Commission plans to authorize a new category of wireless devices in the 6 GHz Wi-Fi band that will be permitted to operate at higher power levels than currently allowed. The FCC will also consider authorizing higher power levels for certain wireless devices that are only allowed to operate indoors.
The FCC said it scheduled a vote for its January 29 meeting on an order "to create a new category of unlicensed devices... that can operate outdoors and at higher power than previously authorized devices." These so-called Geofenced variable power (GVP) devices operating on the 6 GHz band will "support high data rates suitable for AR/VR, short-range hotspots, automation, and indoor navigation," and "overcome limitations of previous device classes by allowing higher power and outdoor mobility," the FCC said. They will be required to work with geofencing systems to avoid interference with fixed microwave links and radio astronomy observatories.
FCC Chairman Brendan Carr attributed the FCC's planned action to President Trump in a press release titled, "President Trump Unleashes American Innovation With 6 GHz Win." That's consistent with Carr's relatively new stance that the FCC takes orders from the president, despite his insisting during the Biden era that the FCC must operate independently from the White House.
