Aviation Spectrum Resources Seeks FNPRM on Drones' Use of 5030-5091 MHz

Aviation Spectrum Resources urged the FCC to launch a rulemaking on service and licensing rules in the 5030-5091 MHz band enabling safety-related unmanned aviation system command and control. Comments filed last year in response to a record-fresh public notice (see 2110130044) demonstrate “a range of UAS spectrum needs and reinforces the support for the Commission to take timely actions to meet those needs,” the company said in a filing posted Monday in RM-11798: “The Commission should not attempt to solve all the spectrum requirements of the UAS industry in a single proceeding, as the ideal of a comprehensive solution would likely stand in the way of seizing the opportunity to make real and needed progress in the near term.”
