Annex B: summary of Regulations in selected countries for 76-77 GHz and 77 - 81 GHz radar sensors The overview provides a summary of selected market areas and countries and illustrates the radio spectrum regulations for radars operating in the frequency range 76 GHz to 81 GHz. The presented table is a snapshot of the regulation at the time when the document was developed. For reference to most recent local regulatory documents should be consulted. Summary of the situation in key market countries For 76 GHz – 77 GHz the technical requirements for acceptance are in principle homogenous and aligned over the listed countries and regions. Only a few countries deviate regarding the typical power parameters and the method applied for verification (examples: reference to conducted power). For 77 – 81 GHz quite a number of countries do not have yet a regulation or are about to work out new regulations and standards. In addition the power requirements show big variation. Specifically the limitation of power density for dedicated usage (vehicle) or in relation to bandwidth will restrict the usage and function of related sensors.
