Radio policy society says spectrum fees should factor in earnings and capex
A proposal called for fees for assigning and re-assigning radio spectrum to be designed to take account of operators\' earnings and capital investment as the AI and 6G era approaches. The Korea Radio Policy Society held an academic conference on Aug. 25 on the direction of radio policy amid AI expansion. Speakers discussed global trends in AI infrastructure and spectrum policy and warned that spectrum fees set too low or too high could distort demand, deter competition or raise consumer prices.
