(Utkast) Kommisjonens gjennomføringsbeslutning (EU) .../... om endring av gjennomføringsbeslutning (EU) 2020/1426 med hensyn til innføring av bredere frekvenskanaler i det harmoniserte frekvensbåndet 5,9 GHz til sikkerhetsrelaterte anvendelser av intelligente transportsystemer for vei
Radiofrekvenser til intelligente trafikksikkerhetssystemer: endringsbestemmelser om bredere frekvenskanaler
Utkast til kommisjonsbeslutning godkjent av komite (representanter for medlemslandene) og publisert i EUs komitologiregister 9.6.2026
Bakgrunn
(fra kommisjonsbeslutningen)
(1) Commission Implementing Decision (EU) 2020/1426 harmonises the conditions for the availability and efficient use of frequency band 5 875-5 935 MHz (‘the 5.9 GHz frequency band’) for the deployment of safety-related applications of road and urban rail intelligent transport systems (ITS).
(2) Recent developments in standardisation support the use of 20 MHz channels in the frequency range 5 875- 5 925 MHz designated for safety-related applications of road ITS.
(3) Radio spectrum accessibility to wider channels for safety-related applications of road ITS, in addition to the currently harmonised 10 MHz channels, would allow the implementation of basic and advanced use cases, which provide advantages such as simplified implementation and higher spectrum efficiency, while maintaining a technology-neutral approach to spectrum use.
(4) On 24 January 2025, pursuant to Article 4(2) of Decision 676/2002/EC, the Commission gave a mandate to the European Conference of Postal and Telecommunications Administrations (CEPT) on updating the harmonised technical conditions laid down in Implementing Decision (EU) 2020/1426 with a view to introducing wider frequency channels in the 5.9 GHz frequency band for safety-related applications of road ITS.
(5) In response to that mandate, on 7 November 2025 the CEPT adopted its Report 91 (‘CEPT Report’), which provides harmonised technical conditions for introducing wider frequency channels to the 5.9 GHz frequency band for safety-related applications of road ITS.
(6) The CEPT Report concludes that two channels of 10 MHz can be combined in one contiguous 20 MHz channel for safety-related applications of road ITS. The CEPT Report also concludes that pending the availability of solutions ensuring protection of urban rail ITS in the frequency band 5 915-5 925 MHz, the use of the 20 MHz channel in the frequency band 5 905-5 925 MHz for road ITS should be limited to infrastructure-to-vehicle communications. The CEPT Report also proposes amendments of the technical and operational conditions set out by Implementing Decision (EU) 2020/1426.
(7) Commission Implementing Decision (EU) 2020/1426 should therefore be amended accordingly.
(8) The measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Radio Spectrum Committee,
