Sujit Dey, UCSD
WORKSHOP LEAD
The workshop is intended to explore how spectrum innovation (including new spectrum allocation, technologies and policies) can enable transformative use cases, applications and services in key sectors of national importance, including Healthcare, Climate/Green Economy, Education, Transportation, and Manufacturing, and how digital divide and social equity can be addressed while boosting US economic leadership.
The workshop will have the following objectives:
1) Identify representative emerging use cases and applications that can benefit from new spectrum allocation technologies and policies;
2) Understand their requirements and establish KPIs;
3) Understand what spectrum bands may be appropriate for different applications, and can multiple spectrum bands be utilized for the same application?
4) Explore whether and how application-specific dynamic spectrum allocation technologies can be developed to satisfy application-specific KPIs, and
5) Identify what policy questions may need to be answered to facilitate such emerging applications.
