An internationally harmonized regulation permitting unlicensed transmission in the lower UHF bands is proposed, e.g. in the 515-605 MHz range. Transmission power levels up to 2 W EIRP are envisioned. This would give citizens a share of the best spectrum for free use. Tools against congestion...

An internationally harmonized regulation permitting unlicensed transmission in the lower UHF bands is proposed. Such a regulation is expected to create a new market for high range WLAN and digital PMSE devices, closing one of the last gaps of unlicensed wireless communication.

Technology competition between wireless communication technologies can lead to new, more or less disruptive services. A potentially disruptive technology would be to have unlicensed transmission in the lower UHF bands at power levels up to, e.g. 2 W EIRP. This would give citizens a share of the...

The difficulties involved in the task of reestablishing full employment in the OECD area point to fundamental problems in the theories applied. Nevertheless, some facts can be reconstructed in connecti on with the historical relationship between wage dynamics and unemployment. This is...

The continuing absence of innovation in Europe's mobile services industry is identified and characterised here, with such examples as mobile Internet and mobile music. Innovation failure is a critical factor leading to a lack of high-income jobs, network effects, and price reductions for data...
