Spectrum Policy in the 5G Era

This webinar will focus on spectrum policy in the 5G era and the recent increase in inter-agency spectrum turf wars. In recent years, there has been an uptick in the amount of involvement by other agencies, including the Department of Transportation, Department of Defense, Department of Energy, and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, to name a few, in FCC spectrum band proceedings. As spectrum demands continue to increase and the importance of sharing rises, some of this proceeding involvement has led to conflicts of interest, delays, and other challenges. The webinar will explore some of the most recent conflicts, such as C-band and 5.9 GHz band, the 6 GHz court challenge, as well as the potential long-term impacts of these battles on spectrum policy at the FCC and beyond.Featuring:--Prof. Adam Candeub, Professor of Law, Michigan State University--Harold Feld, Senior Vice President, Public Knowledge--Tricia Paoletta, Partner, Harris, Wiltshire & Grannis LLP--Moderator: Danielle Thumann, Legal Advisor, Commissioner Brendan Carr---This Zoom webinar is open to public registration at the link above.
