STATEMENT OF NCTA REGARDING THE FCC’S NOTICE ON DEVICES IN THE 5 GHz BAND

“The FCC took a significant step forward today toward making sharing on the 5.9 GHz band a reality. Not only does the FCC ask the right questions about how to test both the Qualcomm and Cisco sharing proposals, but it also asks how to distinguish crash-avoidance from non-safety DSRC applications. NCTA is committed to finding a sharing solution that works and today’s FCC action points the country in the right direction.”
