    The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has updated its rules for the 24 GHz band to align with international standards set by the World Radiocommunication Conference in 2019 (WRC-19). These updates aim to protect sensitive satellite sensors that monitor weather and climate by limiting unwanted emissions from mobile devices operating in these frequencies. The new rules will be implemented in two phases, with stricter limits coming into effect after September 1, 2027. This decision supports international harmonization and encourages the development of advanced wireless services while ensuring that critical scientific observations are safeguarded.

    Simple Explanation

    In the new rules, the people in charge decide that phones and gadgets must be quieter in certain sky spots so that scientists can keep watching the weather without interruptions. They plan to make these rules even stricter in a few years to make sure everything stays peaceful up there.
