V. 5 GAA’s Conclusion C-V 2 X has emerged as the best opportunity to further the vision of ITS in the 5. 9 GHz band respond to the societal needs that Congress, the Commission, and the DOT repeatedly have identified over the better part of the past three decades. As the Commission takes a broader look at the 5. 9 GHz band, it should pursue a forward-looking approach for licensed ITS operations in the 5. 9 GHz band as proposed herein that facilitates C-V 2 X’s evolution path to 5 G. Moreover, during the pendency of this rulemaking, the Commission should grant 5 GAA’s waiver request to enable initial deployments of this potentially life-saving technology as soon as possible. • New ex parte, 05 April 2019: (includes the 03 April ex parte) Agenda • https: //ecfsapi. fcc. gov/file/1040534706725/5 GAA%20 Ex%20 Parte%20 Notice%204. 5. 19. pdf • https: //mentor. ieee. org/802. 18/dcn/19/18 -19 -0051 -00 -0000 -5 gaa-waiver-ex-parte-notice-4 -5 -19 -fcc-gn-18 -357. pdf Slide 11 Jay Holcomb (Itron)
