Federal Communications Commission
In a rule published October 5, 2000, the Commission added and amended regulations governing the licensing and operation of the 24.25- 24.45 GHz and 25.05-25.25 GHz bands to promote the effective use of the 24 GHz band and to accommodate deployment of point-to-point, point-to- multipoint fixed wireless technology at 24 GHz. In addition, the Commission adopted competitive bidding rules to select among mutually exclusive applicants for licenses in these bands. The FCC determined that the 24.25-24.45 GHz and 25.05-25.25 GHz bands (24 GHz band) would be made available for licensing throughout the United States by Economic Areas (EAs). In this connection, the Commission decided to use a total of 176 service areas--the 172 EAs specified by the Department of Commerce and four Commission-created EA-like areas for Guam and the Northern Mariana Islands, Puerto Rico and the United States Virgin Islands, American Samoa, and the Gulf of Mexico. This document contains editorial corrections to the final rules document.
