4. European 5.9 GHz
Title: Electromagnetic compatibility & Radio Spectrum Matters (ERM); System reference document covering Intelligent Transport Systems / Road Transport and Traffic Telematics communications systems operating in 5.9 GHz band
Scope: System reference document covering the spectrum usage requirements and protection parameters for vehicle to vehicle and vehicle to roadside/infrastructure. A European assignment of protected spectrum GHz for high-reliability applications covering safety services is requested. This work supports the eSafety initiative This work is in co-operation with ISO TC 204 (Intelligent Transport Systems).
