May 2023 Open Meeting Agenda

The Federal Communications Commission’s May open meeting will be headlined by a pair of spectrum policy changes to both pave the way for future wireless technologies and also unlock new wireless services right now. Here’s everything we have lined up for our May open meeting:

• We’re unlocking cutting-edge radar-enabled technologies. The FCC will vote on rules to expand the permissible uses for short-range radars in this band, while making sure new operations can coexist with other services already making use of this spectrum. These changes would facilitate advances in everything from augmented reality to drones to healthcare monitoring.
• We’re optimizing a massive swath of spectrum for services from 6G to satellite. In a pair of separate proceedings, the FCC has been studying how best to use more than 1 gigahertz of mid-band spectrum from 12.2 GHz to 13.25 GHz. 
• ​We’re ramping up our all-of-the-above approach to combat robocalls.
• We will also consider an adjudicatory matter from our Media Bureau.
