[SFDXA] FCC Noise Floor Inquiry

[Kai]

Ray pointed me at a source that led to this:

The OFFICE OF ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY ANNOUNCESTECHNOLOGICAL ADVISORY COUNCIL 
(TAC) NOISE FLOOR TECHNICAL INQUIRY ET Docket No. 16-191

The TAC is requesting input to help answer questions about the study of changes 
to the spectrum noise floor over the past 20 years. Noise in this context 
denotes unwanted radio frequency (RF) energy from man-made sources. Like many 
spectrum users, TAC members expect that the noise floor in the radio spectrum is 
rising as the number of devices in use that emit radio energy grows. However, in 
search for concrete evidence of increased noise floors, we have found limited 
available quantitative data to support this presumption. We are looking to find 
ways to add to the available data in order to answer important questions for the 
FCC regarding this topic.

Comment Deadline: August 11, 2016
