Use of Spectrum Bands Above 24 GHz for Mobile Radio Services
In this document, a Fourth Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (4th FNPRM) invites members of the public to comment on how best to transition existing spectrum holdings in the 39 GHz band to the new flexible-use band plan, and on using an incentive auction mechanism.
