Updated RF Spectrum Guidelines for SRDs

The Communication Authority of Kenya has recently renewd its guideleines concerning usage of rediofrequency spectrum for short range devices. The amended paper includes information on allocating spectrum for Wi-Fi 6E equipment in the following bands:  
Frequency Bands Power/Magnetic Field Spectrum Access and Mitigation Relevent Standard Notes
5925 – 6425 MHz 23 dBm (200 mW) mean EIRP. Mean EIRP density for inband emissions – 10 dBm/MHz An adequate spectrum sharing mechanism shall be implemented for channel access and occupation ATU Recommendation on 6 GHz. Restricted to Low Power Indoor (LPI) use only Outdoor use (including in road vehicles) is not permitted.
5925 – 6425 MHz 14 dBm (25 mW) EIRP Mean EIRP density for inband emissions 1 dBm/MHz. An adequate spectrum sharing mechanism shall be implemented for channel access and occupation. Very Low Power (VLP) Indoor and outdoor use. Use of drones is prohibited. Very Low Power (VLP) device is a portable device.
