Allocating broadcast spectrum Models and proposals

William P. McLauchlan and Richard M. Westerberg

Telecommunications Policy, 1982, vol. 6, issue 2, 111-122

Abstract: The authors describe a model of the current US allocation system. By contrast they then outline a proposed model for spectrum allocation on the basis of the value which people place on various portions and uses of the spectrum. In light of these models, the authors examine aspects of proposals by Congress to change the decision making process for spectrum allocation. Finally, the implications and possible consequences of these proposals are examined.
