to contribute to protect PNT efficiently). A consensus also occur for a public provisional recommendation on protection of Lunar S-band PNT, proposing a PFD limit in 2483.5-2500 MHz, to be respected by each lunar surface wireless system. This prov REC will
be reviewed by next SFCG meeting, before to become a firm REC. CNES recommends the wireless devices implementers to take into account from now this Prov SFCG REC 43-1 (attached, and available in the SFCG web site:
