Progress on Spectrum Allocation

Mid Band Spectrum Allocations

I can only hope that the Senate can put partisan differences aside and focus on what’s good for the nation. We need more 5G and 6G and we need more competition for broadband.

Rather than going forward with backward-looking Title II regulations it would be wise for the FCC to issue a Further NPRM seeking comment on the state of competition in the Broadband ISP market. The NPRM barely touches this topic, but it’s actually at the center of the current issue set. There is much the Agency can do to accelerate the transition from a wire-dominant broadband regime to a wireless future in which the Internet is fully pervasive.

HTF Comments on Title II NPRM

But most of all, the FCC needs to guide Congress toward a regulatory status quo that enables the Commission to function to its full capability so that the Internet can fulfill its potential. The FCC and the Internet are not at war with each other, you are both partners in making a better tomorrow.

FCC Lumbers Along with Net Neutrality

I would much rather see the FCC spend its free time on the spectrum problem than fooling around with Title II. But that takes the agency focusing more on what the country needs and less on its institutional self-esteem. That’s harsh, but it’s consistent with what’s actually happening in 2023

5G Hampered by Bad Information

In both 5G coexistence and support for our allies, the Pentagon should focus more on the immediate goal and less on tactics. Despite its penchant for debate, the Pentagon has little relevant experience in either field.

Pentagon Gets Real About Spectrum…at Last

Sharing by denial of service and allocating spectrum in the interest of anti-competitive industries doesn’t make the US more safe and secure. But improving technology, revising policy to promote innovation, and setting high but realistic goals does. The brightest lights in DoD have illuminated the path to success. Reducing DoD’s appetite for dedicated spectrum is step one.
