The future of AT&T Bell Labs and telecommunications research

A. Michael Noll

Telecommunications Policy, 1991, vol. 15, issue 2, 101-105

Abstract: Bell Labs is a costly development house, and the products designed and developed there do not appear competitive in price and features. Since divestiture it is no longer fair that AT&T foot most of the research bill for the US telecommunications industry as a whole. Everyone concerned would benefit from the creation of a national telecommunications research institute funded by a tax on the gross revenue of all service providers.
