3. New radio technologies and their impact on spectrum management www.sportviews.org � Objective � Survey of wireless technology developments which are disruptive in terms of expected impact on spectrum use and spectrum management. We analyze how these new technology innovations can support or in other cases require new methods for spectrum management. � Scope � Focus is on technology innovations in fixed, mobile (including nomadic) and broadcasting systems. � The focus is on frequencies below 6 GHz that is considered the prime frequency range for fixed, mobile and broadcast services. 3.1 Overview of the main innovations in radio technology 3.2 Technology Roadmap 3.3 Disruptive technologies and their impact on Spectrum Management January 2007 9
