The Dynamics of Spectrum Management: Legacy, Technology, and Economics
The volume highlights the role of technologies such as social networking, peer-to-peer sharing, 4G and 5G networks and cloud computing in expanding communication services beyond simple voice to complex data and video. It argues that radio frequency spectrum has emerged as significant and spectrum management and competitive allocation of related property rights are much contested. It discusses spectrum management regimes as moving from command and control to flexible use and the many opportunities in managing large swathes of spectrum as a common property resource. With case studies, it views the challenges posed by political legacies and market realities to spectrum managers. It goes in detail into the technology of spectrum, its economic classification, conceptual issues in the allocation and assignment of spectrum, economic models for valuing spectrum, mobile partnerships and alliances.
