Abstract
This paper, intended for wireless researchers and developers is an introduction to the ongoing spectrum management activity for wireless services. An overview of the spectrum management process is presented and a summary is provided of the specific actions the spectrum management community has completed during the past several years to support the new wireless services. The paper addressees these subject areas: Organization of U.S. Spectrum Management, spectrum allocation and assignment, wireless allocation policy, spectrum engineering and spectrum economics.
