WASHINGTON-The Wireless Communications Association International’s unlicensed council, created earlier this month, modified its group name and selected ADC Telecommunications, Clearwire Communications and WaveRider Communications as team leaders for core functions.
WCA said the group “emulated a trend begun in Europe by substituting the term `license-exempt’ for `unlicensed’ in order to underscore that the services are approved by regulators even though no license is needed. The mission is to `to promote the use of license-exempt spectrum, with a particular focus on fixed and portable applications.”
