Search Primer

Term list: Separate terms with spaces, not commas or semicolons.

Multi-word term: Place inside quotes to ensure an exact match (e.g. "universal service fund").

Acronyms: Use all capital letters to ensure the search is not looking for that letter sequence instead.(e.g. NTIA).

Required term: If a term must be included in any resulting articles, prefix it with a plus sign (e.g., "FCC chairman" +Pai).

Excluded term: If a term should be excluded from any articles being found, prefix it with a minus sign (e.g., FCC -Carr).

Simplest form: Use the simplest form of a term (e.g. "satellite" instead of "satellites" or "impose" instead of "imposed").

Verizon Urges Preserving 7 GHz Spectrum for Potential Wireless Industry Use
January 2, 2024 |Wireless

Carriers need additional spectrum and the FCC shouldn't allocate the 7190-7235 MHz band to the space research service or the 7190-7250 MHz band to the Earth exploration satellite service on a secondary basis for nonfederal use, Verizon said in comments on an NPRM about implementing World Radiocommunication Conference decisions from 2015 and 2019. CTIA offered a similar view (see 2311290040). The record also supports a proposal removing the broadcasting service allocation in the 698-758, 775-788 and 805-806 MHz bands “consistent with the Commission’s transition of the 700 MHz band from television broadcasting use to public safety and mobile broadband uses,” Verizon said in a filing Thursday in docket 23-121. “Data usage on Verizon’s 5G Ultra Wideband network increased 249 percent between January 2021 and June 2022,” the carrier said: “Demand for wireless networks is only expected to increase, with some estimates suggesting that mobile data traffic could grow nearly four-fold by 2028. There is also increasing demand for fixed wireless access solutions, such as Verizon’s 5G Home Internet and LTE Home Internet services.”
