‘LEARN’ More About The FCC’s Incentive Auction
The FCC released expanded details of next week’s Learn Everything About Reverse-Auctions Now Program (LEARN) public workshop, set for May 3 from 9:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. at commission HQ in Washington, D.C. The event aims to address the technical aspects of the 600 MHz wireless band plan (GN Docket No. 12-268) that will result from the incentive auction, including mobile antenna issues, high-power services in the duplex gap and intermodulation issues, harmonics interference, co-channel interference, filter pass band and duplexing approaches permitted in the band. Related band-plan issues like the use of guard bands or Channel 37 by various licensed or unlicensed transmissions could be included in a future LEARN workshop. For more information, contact Paul Malmud at 202/418-0006.
