6.3 FCC and RED Compliance

The TI mmWave Radar Device Regulatory Compliance Guide application note covers the requirements for compliance to regulatory standards for mmWave radar devices. Radio Equipment Directive (RED), a standard for equipment sold in Europe, and Federal Communications Commission (FCC), the standard for the United States, are reviewed in detail. The tools provided by TI for these tests, common issues, and resolutions to these issues are also covered.
