Supply and Demand - Radio
Spectrum Allocation in the Entertainment Industry This month will see our
joint meeting with IET and TCN. The speaker for the evening will
discuss the allocation of wavebands for digital networks.
The wireless frequency spectrum is in short supply and
management of the available spectrum for programme makers and
theatre directors using wireless microphones and cameras need to
employ new ideas to maximise its use. This talk describes these new
techniques, including online applications methods, automated
assignment tools and refining sharing criteria.
