Spectrum Frontiers, Infrastructure Deployment, Lifeline, Robocall Items Planned for Nov. 16 Votes

摘要

FCC Chairman Ajit Pai plans to ask his fellow Commissioners to vote at the agency's Nov. 16 meeting on eight items, including an order to make more than 1,700 megahertz of spectrum available for 5G and other terrestrial wireless uses, as well as making 4 gigahertz of spectrum available for core satellite uses; efforts aimed at easing deployment of wired and wireless infrastructure; a Lifeline item that would ensure higher-level "tribal" subsidies go only to those living on tribal lands; and a "crackdown" on unlawful robocalls by authorizing carriers "to block calls that purport to come from invalid or unassigned phone numbers."
