The National Telecommunications Agency (ANATEL) of Brazil updates the list of restricted radiofrequency bands and the usable bands by restricted RF equipment.
These changes will be effective as of September 1st, 2020 and it replaces the restricted bands previously defined by ANATEL. The updated list of restricted bands is shown below:
| MHz | MHz | MHz | GHz |

| 16.42-16.423 | 1,300-1,427 | - | - |
A few key changes are the following:
- The frequency band 5.9 GHz - 7.1 GHz, commonly used for Wi-Fi is now permitted for use.
- The 5.850 - 5.925 GHz band has been opened for 802.11p (V2X).
- The 57 - 71 GHz band is now used for 802.11ad.
- The 76 to 81 GHz is now used for radar systems.
