WRC-27 study for radiolocation use

Proposed Use
231.5–275 GHz WRC-27 study for primary radiolocation allocation
WRC-27 agenda item 1.8:

to consider possible additional spectrum allocations to the radiolocation service on a primary basis in the frequency range 231.5-275 GHz and possible new identifications for radiolocation service applications in the frequency bands within the frequency range 275-700 GHz for millimetric and sub-millimetric wave imaging systems, in accordance with Resolution 663 (Rev.WRC-23)
