Coalition Meets Commissioner Aides on 5G in 12 GHz

Representatives of the 5G for 12 GHz Coalition spoke with aides to FCC Chairwoman Jessica Rosenworcel and Commissioners Geoffrey Starks and Nathan Simington on use of the 12 GHz band for 5G. “The Coalition has drawn a diverse group of supporters that have coalesced around the evidence showing the feasibility of coexistence” there, said a filing posted Thursday in docket 20-443: “The technical, engineering and economic studies submitted into the record were intended to assist the Commission staff in evaluating the feasibility for coexistence in this band and address other questions raised by the Commission in the 12 GHz NPRM and by third-party commenters.” Representatives of Incompas, Dish Network, Airspan, the Rural Wireless Association, Public Knowledge, Open Technology Institute at New America and RS Access were among those on the calls.
