Improving Federal Coordination and Transparency in Radio Spectrum Management
This law mandates new procedures requiring government agencies to coordinate better and increase transparency when deciding how to allocate radio frequencies (spectrum). This means that decisions affecting the future of wireless networks, 5G, and other technologies will be more open to public scrutiny. The goal is to ensure new wireless technologies can be deployed efficiently without disrupting existing federal services.
Key points
Requires public disclosure of how federal agencies coordinate decisions regarding spectrum allocation, increasing transparency.
Increases transparency in the process where the government decides which frequencies will be designated for commercial auctions (e.g., for 5G networks).
Mandates regular updates to the agreement between the FCC and NTIA to adapt spectrum management to changing technologies.
