The Federal Communications Commission (FCC or Commission) has adopted rules for the Citizens Broadband Radio Service (3.5 GHz band). The Report and Order adopts spectrum sharing techniques to create a new three-tiered commercial radio service spanning 3550-3700 MHz. The use of advanced spectrum-sharing technology will allow wireless broadband systems to share spectrum with military radars and other incumbent systems, while protecting important federal missions. The Commission also adopted a Second Further Notice of Proposed Rulemaking that seeks comment on several related implementation issues.
