Annual Reports on Federal Government Spectrum Usage
This new act requires a government agency (NTIA) to annually publish reports on how the federal government uses specific radio frequency bands. This will give citizens access to information on how radio resources are managed, potentially impacting wireless technology development and service availability.
Key points
The NTIA will annually publish reports on federal government spectrum usage in the 225 MHz to 50 GHz range.
Reports will include detailed information on frequency assignments, major systems, and future uses, increasing government transparency.
Information will be publicly available on the NTIA website, excluding classified sections, allowing citizens to monitor radio resource management.
