Spectrum

— Proactively addressing the spectrum issues of a Next G world.

With the build-out of 5G, spectrum use and demand is already increasing and will grow even more with 6G. The Spectrum WG is working to address and influence spectrum access, management, policy recommendations, standards organizations, and long term needs to support the 6G use cases. The work will identify potential spectrum in North America and worldwide and address opportunities related to spectrum harmonization by coordinating/collaborating with other likeminded global 6G initiatives.

The group will continue to develop a forward-leaning approach to evolving spectrum access and management, and policy recommendations to maximize 6G opportunities while promoting the most effective and efficient spectrum uses. The group’s deliverables include a set of recommendations that can be shared with industry and government stakeholders for actionable implementations in policy.
