ICYMI China made big moves on mid-band spectrum this week, allocating 700 megahertz of 6 GHz spectrum for 5G/6G. FCC decision to give this spectrum away to unlicensed interests looks increasingly regrettable. ctia.org/news/china-commits-…

House E&C passes Spectrum Auction Reauthorization Act of 2023 out of committee; on to a full House vote.
Replying to @jeffreywestling
Audience just got packed so it looks like Spectrum Reauth Act is up next.

Most GAA and PAL users are on 10 MHz channels with an aggregated max of 35 MHz per base station. CBRS is way over-allocated relative to actual usage.

So many thinly veiled threats in today's NTIA session, esp. from the defense/aviation sector.

How is it unfair for airlines to have to upgrade their essentially defective altimeters that receive radio energy 100s of MHz away from the altimeter band, while 5G base stations, thanks to filters, emit virtually no energy in the actual altimeter band. bit.ly/3Ein8nt

I spoke to @SenatorBennet at #SiliconFlatirons about his call for a digital regulator, whether he thinks TikTok should be banned, where he stands on the antitrust bills and if he thinks a federal privacy law should override Colorado's. More here: washingtonpost.com/politics/…

Coleman Bazelon spot on: the value of spectrum isn't the cash the government gets or total bids at auction. The real value comes from the uses to which it's put. #senatecommerce

Nice question from Sen Hickenlooper - how can modernizing spectrum relocation fund better support NTIA's ITS labs in Boulder? CTIA's Baker notes opportunities to make relocation fund more foward-looking and enable NTIA and ITS to tap spectrum relocation fund #futureofspectrum

During today’s @energycommerce hearing, Communications & Technology Ranking Member @boblatta highlighted the need for federal agencies to use spectrum resources efficiently for future generations of technology.

The elephant in the room #FAA5G is that radio altimeters require 600 - 800 MHz of spectrum (incl GBs) to provide a service that can pulled off in less than one MHz. Radio altimeters are the most inefficient, most costly, and most embarrassing tech devices in service today.

Much ado about nothing
The FAA also has yet to confirm any C-band #5G interference. "We are using our established safety-reporting systems to look into a handful of reports of possible 5G interference. So far none of these reports have been validated." lightreading.com/5g/more-c-b…? via @robpegoraro

The last company that didn't spend money on spectrum when they were behind was Sprint. We all know how that ended Investing in spectrum and network is part of the cost of service. Without it you are not going to keep customers. The close to $100b on spectrum was well invested

To paraphrase South Park: "Everything worked out what a happy end. FAA and FCC are friends again So let's all join hands at get 5G deployed! (Though we're still annoyed.) Our network will b complete 'Cause C-Band spectrum is sweet. (Super Sweet!) whitehouse.gov/briefing-room…
