Spectrum Management Forum 2016


The 5G Ecosystem

The Commonwealth Spectrum Management Forum 2016, took place at the Hotel Mont Febe, Yaounde, Cameroon on the 2-4 November 2016.

Spectrum is a finite and valuable resource that is central to the utilisation of Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs). Advances in ICTs bring new demands on the Spectrum every day. Proper planning and optimum use of Spectrum is a key factor that impacts on the development of every country. Managing Spectrum requires a multi-stakeholder approach, that extends beyond national borders. Priorities of policy makers, regulators, service providers and manufactures have to be given due consideration.

Stakeholders reviewed the international coordination mechanisms of the International Telecommunication Union through the World Radiocommunication Conferences, in advance of WRC-2019. This Forum aims to build the capacity of stakeholders in managing spectrum from planning and assigning to utilising and recovery as well as to help stakeholders prepare for the next World Radio Communication Conference.

Key Topics:

      • Implementing WRC 15 outcomes
      • Managing spectrum to maximise value
      • Methods of Spectrum assigning
      • New services and demand on Spectrum
      • Preparing for WRC 19s
