I'm not sure if this rule needs an AUTO-BW? (Note also that Ofcom opened a proposal to remove the DFS requirement on this frequency band (and to add new 5Ghz bands). Results of this are due later in 2020.) Therefore I think that the db.txt should say: | country GB: DFS-ETSI ... # Reference (IR-2030) (5725 - 5875 @ 80), (200 mW), DFS, AUTO-BW, wmmrule=ETSI | |Could someone appropriate please check this and update upstream.| | | |Thanks| |Ed W | || ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 7+ messages in thread

I'm not sure if this rule > needs an AUTO-BW? AUTO-BW doesn't make sense here, however it does look like the 5470 - 5725 rule could be expanded to 5730 to allow channel 144 to be used. I agree that it looks like DFS is required, and also TPC which will require us to use 100 mW as the max EIRP. Afaik the wmmrule doesn't apply to the 5.8 GHz band, so I think that isn't required. I'll send out a patch soon with these updates. Thanks, Seth > (Note also that Ofcom opened a proposal to remove the DFS requirement on > this frequency band (and to add new 5Ghz bands).

Can I also bring a later patch that I posted to your attention, the actual patch is now out of date, but I'm posting verbatim since I think there is a 25Mhz discrepancy (?) and also my patch is almost certainly wrong, so I'm after your guidance!! :-) Essentially there has been a recent result of a consultation in the UK (GB) to expand wifi into 6Ghz *AND* to NOT require DFS on high 5Ghz channels. So in summary, the change you just made (sorry) can now be set to *NOT* need DFS in the high channels around 5.7Ghz. More details in the links below. In particular one of the additional frequency ranges (6Ghz) has an intended use of indoor where it has large power outputs (and encouraged to use larger powers by request of Intel), but it is *ALSO* allowed to be used outdoor with very low power requirements (possibly it will later fall under the UK's allowance to use higher output power if you buy a £50 licence?). I've marked it as INDOOR-ONLY since that seems safest - I'm unclear how to mark something for dual use? These changes significantly expand the available 5Ghz space in the UK, so would be nice to get upstream for general use Notes: https://www.ofcom.org.uk/__data/assets/pdf_file/0036/198927/6ghz-statement.pdf https://www.ofcom.org.uk/__data/assets/pdf_file/0028/84970/ir-2030.pdf Thanks if you might make this second change!

I've looked through the 6 GHz statement. One thing I'm not clear on is whether the decision is effective immediately or only once the relevant regulatory documents have been ammended (as noted in section 6.3). I did not find an updated IR 2030 at least, so I wonder if these changes should wait for that. > So in summary, the change you just made (sorry) can now be set to *NOT* need DFS in the high > channels around 5.7Ghz. More details in the links below. The document only seems to state that the DFS requirement is removed for indoor use up to 200 mW EIRP. So this range may also need to have NO-OUTDOOR added if DFS is removed. Hopefully when IR 2030 is updated the restrictions will be clear. > In particular one of the additional frequency ranges (6Ghz) has an intended use of indoor where it > has large power outputs (and encouraged to use larger powers by request of Intel), but it is *ALSO* > allowed to be used outdoor with very low power requirements (possibly it will later fall under the > UK's allowance to use higher output power if you buy a £50 licence?).

The regdb can contain two entries for the same range in a given country, I'm not sure how that will be handled by the kernel though.

We have to use half of the maximum EIRP in cases where TPC is required because Linux does not support TPC. This is why 5250-5350 and 5470-5730 have lower limits than what is prescribed in IR 2030. Note that many recent rules have also included power spectral density (PSD) limits, which can also limit the max EIRP in the database since there's currently no support for PSD limits in Linux or wireless-regdb. Where specified in IR 2030 they do not impose any limit beyond the max EIRP for the minimum relevant bandwidth for our purposes (20 MHz), so they don't end up making any difference here. > - The 5.9-6.4Ghz range is now good for use (page 35 near the bottom), perhaps add something like: > > + (5925 - 6425 @ 160), (250 mW), NO-OUTDOOR, AUTO-BW, wmmrule=ETSI This looks about right.

I prefer that others write patches and I review them, since no one else really reviews the patches and it's always harder to spot errors in your own patches. But if you're unable to do it, I can create a patch. I think the 5725-5850 MHz change from above can also be included too, as long as it includes NO-OUTDOOR.

I've updated all rules for this range to remove AUTO-BW. I think the GB rule is correct now. I did a quick check of the other rules versus IR 2030, and they look okay to me. Let me know if you see any issues I missed. Thanks, Seth ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 7+ messages in thread
