Hi Kristiaan, the ACA provisions do not currently support the deployment of 802.11h in the 5470-5725 MHz band. The following discussion paper outlines an ACA proposal to add this portion of the 5GHz spectrum to the existing LIPD class licence system.
The discussion paper on this can be found at; http://www.aca.gov.au/radcomm/frequency_planning/spps/0313spp.pdf while you have 1 day to put your thoughts together if you wish to comment ! On the subject of spread spectrum devices in general, the ACA standard mandating parts of AS/NZS 4771:2000 is now located at http://www.aca.gov.au/aca_home/legislation/standards/radspread_03.pdf. This standard comes into effect 10 December 2004. The labelling notice has also been considerably revised and compliance level 2 is specifically selected for spread spectrum devices. This can be viewed at http://www.aca.gov.au/aca_home/legislation/radcomm/notices/devices_2003.rtf. Best Regards, Martin. Martin Garwood. Approval Specialists Pty.
