This section contains the statutory basis for this part of the rules and pro-vides the purpose for which this part is iss
29、ued. (a) Basis. The rules for miscellaneous wireless communications services (WCS) in this part are promulgated under the provisions of the Commu-nications Act of 1934, as amended, that vest authority in the Federal Commu-nications Commission to regulate radio transmission and to issue licenses for
30、radio stations. (b) Purpose. This part states the con-ditions under which spectrum is made available and licensed for the provision of wireless communications services in the following bands. (1) 23052320 MHz and 23452360 MHz. (2) 746763 MHz, 775793 MHz, and 805 806 MHz. (3) 698746 MHz. (4) 13901392
31、 MHz. (5) 13921395 MHz and 14321435 MHz. (6) 16701675 MHz. (7) Reserved (8) 17101755 MHz and 21102155 MHz. (9) 24952690 MHz. (c) Scope. The rules in this part apply only to stations authorized under this part. 62 FR 9658, Mar. 3, 1997, as amended at 65 FR 3144, Jan. 20, 2000; 65 FR 17601, Apr. 4, 20

(a) Miscellaneous wireless communica-tions services. Except as provided in paragraph (b) of this sec
33、tion and sub-ject to technical and other rules con-tained in this part, a licensee in the frequency bands specified in 27.5 may provide any services for which its fre-quency bands are allocated, as set forth in the non-Federal Government column of the Table of Allocations in 2.106 of this chapter (c
34、olumn 5). (b) 775776 MHz and 805806 MHz bands. Operators in the 775776 MHz and 805806 MHz bands may not employ a cellular system architecture. A cel-lular system architecture is defined, for purposes of this part, as one that consists of many small areas or cells (segmented from a larger geographic
35、service area), each of which uses its own base station, to enable frequencies to be reused at relatively short dis-tances. (c) Satellite DARS. Satellite digital audio radio service (DARS) may be pro-vided using the 23102320 and 23452360 MHz bands. Satellite DARS service shall be provided in a manner
36、 con-sistent with part 25 of this chapter. 65 FR 3144, Jan. 20, 2000, as amended at 65 FR 17601, Apr. 4, 2000; 72 FR 48843, Aug. 24, 2007 27.3 Other applicable rule parts.
