The Technology CEO Council makes a strong and loud call today for the significant expansion of the use and usability of radio spectrum. The group includes the CEOs of nine leading IT companies and says that spectrum may be the most critical infrastructure element of 21st century economies.
Wireless companies have been hungry for more airwaves as they deploy new services like high-speed Internet and video content.
The executives also plan to suggest the FCC ease restrictions on wireless licenses so companies have more flexibility to use the airwaves for new services. They also will recommend making more unlicensed spectrum available that could be used for a variety of purposes.
The organization also plans to recommend Congress and regulators ensure that public safety organizations have the airwaves they need. Safety officials have complained about poor communications during disasters like the September 11 attacks and Hurricane Katrina.
