Study Notes
Spectrum Pricing Methodologies
- Market-based approach involves auctions to allocate spectrum
- Formula-based approach involves incentive pricing, such as AIP (Administrative Incentive Pricing), which promotes spectral efficiency and socio-economic policy goals
- AIP resolves interference problems by identifying sources of harmful interference for existing and potential users
Objectives of Spectrum Management
- Optimize usage of scarce frequency resources
- Selection criteria for spectrum allocation include:
- Tariffs proposed
- Coverage (geographical and in terms of users)
- Network implementation objectives
- Commitments regarding quality and service range
- Efficient use of frequencies
Auctions in Spectrum Allocation
- Auctions are commonly used when:
- Spectrum is in scarce supply
- Many firms want to acquire a license
- The service to be provided with the spectrum can be precisely defined
- The monetary value of the license is relatively high
- Auctions can be time-consuming due to evaluations of financial capacity, technical plans, etc.
