FCC Adopts 100% Wireless Handset Hearing Aid Compatibility Requirement for Future Models (89832–89868) Effective December 13, 2024
Achieving 100 Percent Wireless Handset Model Hearing Aid Compatibility, 89832–89868 [2024–25088] [PDF]
SUMMARY: In this document, the Federal Communications Commission (‘‘Commission’’) adopts a 100% hearing aid compatibility requirement that applies to all future wireless handset models offered for sale or use in the United States and implementation provisions related to this 100% requirement, including a Bluetooth coupling requirement. DATES: Effective December 13, 2024, except for amendatory instructions 3 and 4 which are delayed indefinitely. The Commission will publish a document in the Federal Register announcing the effective dates of these amendments. The incorporation by reference of certain publications listed in the rule is approved by the Director of the Federal Register as of June 3, 2021.

FCC Enhances Public Safety Communications in the 4.9 GHz Band with Nationwide Band Manager Framework (91578–91585) Effective December 20, 2024
Improving Public Safety Communications in the 4.9 GHz Band, 91578–91585 [2024–26794] [PDF]
SUMMARY: In this document, the Federal Communications Commission (Commission) takes another major step towards ensuring that the 4940–4990 MHz band (4.9 GHz band) is efficiently and intensely utilized in support of public safety missions nationwide. To that end, the Commission bolsters the coordinated nationwide approach to the band that it established in its Seventh Report and Order, FCC 23–3, in which it adopted a nationwide Band Manager framework to coordinate operations in the 4.9 GHz band, optimize public safety use, and facilitate the integration of the latest commercially available technologies, including 5G, for the benefit of public safety users. To further these goals—and ensure that the 4.9 GHz band is put to more robust use nationwide in the near term—the 4.9 GHz Band Manager, once selected, will be eligible to apply for a nationwide overlay license and authorized to enter into a sharing agreement with the First Responder Network Authority (FirstNet). Pursuant to this sharing agreement, FirstNet may be permitted to use unassigned spectrum in the 4.9 GHz band as part of its nationwide public safety broadband network (NPSBN) in a manner that protects incumbent operations. In addition to expanding the Band Manager’s responsibilities to include entering into a sharing agreement with FirstNet and establishing rules governing the nationwide Band Manager overlay license, the Commission also reaffirms its commitment to the nationwide Band Manager framework and clarifies the Band Manager’s responsibilities to address the new rules we adopt herein.
DATES: Effective December 20, 2024. 2024年12月期

FCC Adopts C-V2X Auto Safety Spectrum Rules
WASHINGTON, November 21, 2024—The Federal Communications Commission has adopted final rules for cellular-vehicle-to-everything (C-V2X) technology. These rules will improve transportation safety and permit more efficient mobility as this advanced communications technology is integrated into vehicles and infrastructure. C-V2X technology provides direct communications between vehicles, roadside infrastructure, and other road users such as cyclists, pedestrians, and road workers to facilitate, among other things, non-line-of sight awareness, notice of changing driving conditions, and automated driving.

ISED Update on 802.11ax and 802.11be Testing and Assessment Criteria
ISED update on 802.11ax and 802.11be testing
During the TCBC workshop, it came up in the KDB sharing session that ISED considered 802.11ax and 802.11be to be separate technologies that have to be assessed individually. This assessment was on our early understanding of 802.11be and mostly around the channel puncturing aspects of 802.11ax and 802.11be being different.
As mentioned at the workshop, this was taken back to the ISED team and we have since been supplemented with some additional data to support the similarities of 802.11ax and 802.11be. Upon review, ISED will accept full RU testing of 802.11be to be representative of 802.11ax provided that the power tables are the same. Any special RU configurations must be assessed separately.
