In this case, a Distinguished Lecture by Prof. Roy Summit entitled: "Spectrum Sharing: Scenarios and Opportunities".

FYI: The talk at UC3M will be streaming.

Abstract:

This talk will present an overview of current research that thematically centers around Spectrum Sharing – a topic whose importance has been ratcheted by the Jun 2010 U.S. Presidential Memorandum (https://www.whitehouse.gov/the-press-office/presidential-memorandum-unleashing-wireless-broadband-revolution) to ``make available a total of 500 MHz of Federal and nonfederal spectrum over the next 10 years, suitable for both mobile and fixed wireless broadband use”.  The first down payment on the above is the current AWS-3 transition (https://www.ntia.doc.gov/category/aws-3-transition) of 50 MHz of spectrum that will require spectral coordination between numerous Federal incumbents (radar, navigation etc.) and cellular operator networks (notably, 4G LTE and WiFi).

Hope that this activity would be valuable for you.

Best regards

Víctor P. Gil
