Wireless networks have been an outstanding success, exceeding expectations multiple times. Over the last few decades, performance and coverage have improved tremendously, and we increasingly rely on wireless connectivity to keep in touch with each other, to be informed and entertained, and to carry...
In recent weeks CTIA and T-Mobile US have both asked the Federal Communications Commission to change the way the agency plans to allocate the Citizens Broadband Radio Spectrum. If adopted, the proposed changes will help U.S. mobile network operators deploy spectrum in the 3.5...

Operators finally have the tools they need to optimize their networks in real time and, in doing so, to increase the efficiency of network resources and improve subscribers’ QoE.
To do so, they need to gain a deeper understanding of how their networks work,...
Despite calls for harmonized 5G spectrum at MWC, the U.S. and EU seem to be on different paths at least in the near term. Several spectrum bands were identified by the ITU WRC-15 for future 5G services, including three bands above 6GHz in the 24...

At the dawn of the 5G and the Internet of Everything era, one would easily assume that most people are already well connected with broadband access, especially in urban areas. If things and clothes are becoming connected, then the large majority of humans must...

Who is winning and starting the year off right?
It is a busy time of year and we are still playing catch up, so we apologize for the delay in getting this update out. Compass Intelligence just completed the final assessment of Q1 2017 and...
The CBRS 3.5 GHz framework in the US is an innovative take on spectrum sharing. Regulators and the rest of the wireless industry worldwide are watching the adoption of CBRS in the US because it has the potential to increase spectrum utilization and to...
A question often raised about CBRS concerns options in the unlicensed bands – namely Wi-Fi, LTE in unlicensed bands and MulteFire. Does CBRS compete with them, and if so, which one will win?
With the increase in traffic and the widening of applications that use...
Approximately 30% of U.S. households in remote and rural communities still lack access to high speed broadband, and availability of fixed terrestrial broadband services in rural America continues to lag behind urban and suburban areas at all speeds. High speed internet access via DSL,...
Artificial intelligence, or AI for short, has been described variously as a threat to humanity, a boon to economies, and many other things in between. All valuable technologies solve a pertinent problem. Until recently AI and its favorite children, machine learning and predictive analytics, have...

Spectrum is a finite resource. And it is a resource that has become extremely useful – necessary, in fact – to virtually all of us: individuals, businesses, public agencies. Picture what would happen if, for a single day, all wireless connections ceased to work.
