ACTION: Notice.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION, CONTACT:
Wendy Wigen at 703–292–4873 or
wigen@nitrd.gov. Individuals who use a
telecommunications device for the deaf
(TDD) may call the Federal Information
Relay Service (FIRS) at 1–800–877–8339
between 8 a.m. and 8 p.m., Eastern time,
Monday through Friday.
DATES: April 23–24, 2013.
SUMMARY: Representatives from Federal
research agencies, private industry, and
academia will identify economic and
policy R&D that will promote progress
toward more efficient spectrum
utilization and sharing.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Overview: This notice is issued by the
National Coordination Office for the
Networking and Information
Technology Research and Development
(NITRD) Program. Agencies of the
NITRD Program are holding the fourth
in a series of workshops to bring
together experts from private industry
and academia to help identify economic
and policy research that will accelerate
the progress toward more efficient
spectrum utilization and sharing. The
workshop will take place on April 23–
24, from 9:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. ET (both
days), at the MIT Patil Conference
Room/Kiva, 32 Vassar Street,
Cambridge, MA 02139. This event will
be webcast. The event agenda and
information about the webcast will be
available the week of the event at:
https://www.nitrd.gov/Subcommittee/
wirelessspectrumrd.aspx.
Background: The Presidential
Memorandum on Unleashing the
Wireless Broadband Revolution,
released on June 28, 2010, directed the
federal agencies to work together and
with the non-federal community,
including the academic, commercial,
and public safety sectors, to create and
implement a plan that ‘‘facilitates
research, development,
PO 00000
Frm 00070
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
experimentation, and testing by
researchers to explore innovative
spectrum-sharing technologies.’’
The WSRD has held three workshops
that addressed the challenge defined in
that Presidential Memorandum. During
WSRD’s first Workshop held at Boulder,
CO, in July, 2011, the participants
indicated that a national-level testing
environment is critical for validating
spectrum sharing technology under
realistic conditions; they also
emphasized the value of a spectrum
sharing testing environment for a
diversity of users. At a second
workshop, held in Berkeley, CA, in
January, 2012, key concepts and criteria
were established for spectrum sharing
test and evaluation capabilities. The
third workshop, held in Boulder, CO. in
July 2012, identified realistic projects
whose implementation will significantly
support the plan to meet the
Presidential Memorandum’s goals. This
fourth workshop will gather diverse,
knowledgeable, and forward thinking
stakeholders to advise us on the
important next step, the economic and
policy research that is needed to
promote an efficient and shared
spectrum environment.
