| 2020-11897 | Review of the Commission's Rules Governing 896-901/935-940 MHz Band | Rule | In this document, the Commission adopts rules for broadband license operations in the 897.5-900.5/936.5-939.5 MHz segment of the 900 MHz band (896-901/935-940 MHz). The new rules are necessary because many 900 MHz licensees, including utilities and other industrial users, will require additional coverage and capacity to keep pace with the expanding need for enhanced connectivity. The intended effect of adopting rules for 900 MHz broadband license operations is to address many 900 MHz licensees' current and future needs because broadband can offer next generation services not typically associated with narrowband systems. In this document, the Commission also proposes to modify the 900 MHz nationwide ribbon license held by the Association of American Railroads, which would clear a prominent nationwide incumbent from the new broadband segment and enable significant advancements to railroad safety. The Commission denies a petition for rulemaking requested by the Enterprise Wireless Association. Lastly, the Commission adopts a partial lifting of the 900 MHz application freeze. | 2020-07-16 | 2020 | 7 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2020/07/16/2020-11897/review-of-the-commissions-rules-governing-896-901935-940-mhz-band | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2020-07-16/pdf/2020-11897.pdf | Federal Communications Commission | 161 | In this document, the Commission adopts rules for broadband license operations in the 897.5-900.5/936.5-939.5 MHz segment of the 900 MHz band (896-901/935-940 MHz).
