>> Medical Body Area Networks (MBANs) Report and Order (R&O) and Further Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (FNPRM): The agency will vote on a R&O and FNPRM to establish service rules and an allocation for Medical Body Area Networks and seek comment on the selection of an MBAN coordinator.
>> Removing Barriers to Broadband Deployment in the 800 MHz Band R&O: Commissioners will look at a R&O that will provide EA-based 800 MHz licensees with the flexibility to better utilize spectrum to transition networks from legacy 2G technologies to advanced wireless technologies.??
