Spectrum is a finite resource, for which demand is increasing, due to new services requiring more bandwidth. Regulators are therefore constantly re-assessing spectrum assignment, to ensure efficient use, and to assign a market value. Our consultants have cost-modelling skills that support regulators in determining cost and benefits of license types, and their impact on future pricing. We have advised Regulators on:
Management of spectrum, including international usage and trends
Development of legislations, relevant laws and regulations
Spectrum value, benchmarking and techno-economic modelling
Preparing spectrum licenses to meet objectives, by tender or auction
The development of a national frequency plan
