Washington Talks Wireless
summary
Panel reviews concrete wins and gaps: the U.S. recounts 30 years of auctions that raised hundreds of billions, touts the 3.45 GHz win and new band studies (37, 18, 5 GHz), and warns of a midband shortfall as global 6 GHz deployments diverge. Regulators push for auction authority and cite the 5G Fund targeting 14 million unserved homes while BEAD shows permitting delays (hundreds of days). Also covered: 89% wireless data growth, fixed‑wireless uptake, multilingual emergency alerts, and legal risks from recent court rulings.
