FCC Look at LTE-U Must Be Technology Neutral, CTIA Says

An FCC examination of LTE-unlicensed and licensed assisted access technology must be technology neutral, CTIA officials told FCC staff, said an ex parte filing in docket 15-105. The FCC released a public notice seeking comment on both (see 1505050047). Comments are due June 11 in docket 15-105. Technological neutrality “will allow industry to innovate and evolve broadband services to best serve wireless consumers,” CTIA said. “This approach also will allow industry standards bodies to determine the most appropriate technical capabilities for providing LTE technology under Part 15.”
