Public Services Regulatory Commission of the Republic of Armenia has released two amendments to its 2011 Decision №169Ն on Approval of the Procedure for Issuing Permits for the Use of Radio Frequencies.

1. Amendment №159Ն, on permit of usage of radio frequency ranges without permit, released on May 11, 2012, available at https://www.psrc.am/contents/document/4749 (choose language → HY)

<…> Based on Article 5, Part 1, Point 1(d) and Point 2(b), Article 6, Part 1 and Part 2, Point 1, and Article 17, Part 5 of the Law of the Republic of Armenia "On Electronic Communication," as well as Article 70, Part 1 of the Law of the Republic of Armenia "On Legal Acts," the Public Services Regulatory Commission of the Republic of Armenia decides:
To amend Points 4 and 5 of the annex to the decision №169N of April 13, 2011, by the Public Services Regulatory Commission of the Republic of Armenia titled "Approval of the Procedure for Granting Permissions for the Use of Radio Frequencies," by restating them with a new wording. <…>
"4. No permission is required for:
<…>
9) The use of broadband wireless access equipment operating in the 2400–2483.5 MHz radio frequency band with a power of up to 100 mW.
<…>”


2. Amendment №295-Ն, on permit of usage of radio frequency ranges without permit, released on August 23, 2023, available at https://www.psrc.am/contents/document/11375 (choose language → HY)

<…> Based on Articles 33 and 34 of the Law "On Normative Legal Acts," the Public Services Regulatory Commission of the Republic of Armenia decides:
To amend Subpoint 10 of Point 4 of the annex to Decision №169-N of April 13, 2011, of the Public Services Regulatory Commission of the Republic of Armenia, titled "Approval of the Procedure for Granting Permissions for the Use of Radio Frequencies," as follows:
"10) For the use of local network equipment operating in the 5150-5350 MHz and 5470-5875 MHz radio frequency bands with an effective radiated power (e.r.p.) of up to 100 mW (only indoors, as well as in airplanes during all phases of flight), utilizing dynamic frequency selection (DFS) and transmitter power control (TPC).” <…>


Essentially, this two documents define this frequencies as permitted:
- 2400 - 2483.5 MHz @ 100 mW
- 5150 - 5350 MHz @ 100 mW with DFS, outdoor usage forbidden
- 5470 - 5875 MHz @ 100 mW) with DFS, outdoor usage forbidden

However, I am not sure if AUTO-BW option here is required. As far as I know, there is currently no limitation on bandwidth usage in IEEE 802.11 set of protocols in Armenia.

Please try to change any non-ASCII characters down to ASCII.
And please wrap commit messages to under 80 characters per line.

This mentions TPC, which we don't actually support. We adopted reducing
the maximum EIRP by 3 dBm, on the basis of that is what the ETSI regulations
do.

You don't need to include the actual text, which makes the commit
message really long.

Just list the bits that are updated, and provide links to the justification.
And pointers to the actual item would be nice. So something like the
following:

1. For 2.4 GHz range, based on reworded subparagraph 9 from
   https://www.psrc.am/contents/document/4749

   * 2400 - 2483.5
     - 100 mW EIRP
     - indoor use only

2. For 5 GHz range, based on reworded subparagraph 10 from
   https://www.psrc.am/contents/document/11375
   which also supersedes the previous document

   * 5150 - 5350
     - 100 mW EIRP
     - indoor use only
     - DFS required
     - TPC required, reduce limit by 3 dBm to 17 dBm

    same for the other range.

Normally any additional notes should be written under the "---" so that
when we apply the patch, it doesn't get included.

AUTO-BW is just for stitching together adjacent bands that have different
requirements. Since you aren't doing that here, it isn't needed.


Also, we require a Signed-off-by line from you, like with all kernel patches.

Drop the AUTO-BW, as mentioned.

Hi Chen-Yu,

I greatly appreciate your assistance, as it is my first time sending Git patches with e-mail.
I will re-create this thread with proper formatting and improved commit. Thank you.
