The WInnForum is seeking your input in the 2nd edition of our widely downloaded Dynamic Spectrum Sharing Annual Report

Downloaded more than 2,600 times, this report was initially created in 2014 for regulators, policy makers, spectrum managers, network planners, and wireless researchers who need to understand the state of technologies such as dynamic spectrum access and their ability to facilitate spectrum sharing. It acts as a reference guide to clearly identify and synthesize a harmonized view of the results of spectrum sharing research and trials, identify what is in development, and articulate what issues are being addressed and what issues still need to be resolved.

The Wireless Innovation Forum is in the process of producing a 2nd Edition. We are seeking input on topics including regulations, tests, trials and deployments, standards, equipment, and business models in the following bands:

  • TV
  • AWS-3
  • 3.5 GHz
  • 5 GHz
  • Beyond 5 GHz
  • Other bands of interest

If you haven't already, you can download the current report here. 

To provide input on the above topics, or any additional topic not listed, please contact Lee Pucker at [email protected]. Don't miss this opportunity to be involved in and recognized as a contributor to this well regarded and referenced report. 

 

More about the first edition of the Report

This report acts as a reference guide to clearly identify and synthesize a harmonized view of the results of spectrum sharing research and trials, identify what is in development, and articulate what issues are being addressed and what issues still need to be resolved.  In developing this report, the dependencies of business, regulation and technology in advancing dynamic spectrum sharing became obvious: 
  • regulation cannot proceed without a clear understanding of technological capabilities and business potential
  • business investment cannot proceed without a clear understanding of technology and the regulatory environment under which it will be deployed
  • technology development cannot proceed without business investment and an understanding of the regulatory constraints. 
Research programs and activities are crucial for driving innovation into this cycle by extending the knowledge of what is technically possible and therefore addressing the need for evidence-based advice to support the development of appropriate policies, regulations and licensing.  The development and evaluation of new concepts and strategies for sharing of, and dynamic access to, spectrum can be leverage or done in collaboration with industry who can in turn devise new business models.
