Legislation¶

Radioelectric frequecies belong to the State public field. There are international and national regulation agencies that allocate part of the frequency bands of the spectrum to users, with a limited bandwidth and a maximum emission power authorized for the equipment.

In France, the ANFR (Agence Nationale des Fréquences) is the agency in charge of the frequency allocation, regulation, and the license delivery. They TNRBF (Tableau National de Répartition des Bandes de Fréquences), is the reference document which precises for each frequency band which is the radiocommunication service authorized in France.

Only the ANFR can provide the input we need for our system design, which are:

• the frequency band
• the available bandwidth
• the emission power (EIRP) authorized for our link
