ExecutiveSummary

ThewirelessindustryhasbecomeacornerstoneoftheAmericaneconomy,influencingnearlyevery

aspectofdailylifeandbusinessoperations.Astechnologycontinuestoadvance,thedemandfor

wirelesscommunicationcontinuestosurge,withAmericansconsuminganastounding100billion

gigabytesofdatainthepastyearalone.Thisgrowingrelianceonwirelessnetworksunderscorestheirroleascriticalinfrastructure,essentialforfacilitatingeconomictransactions,maintainingpersonal

connections,andmaintainingnationalsecurity.

Theindustry'ssignificantcontributionstoeconomicoutputandjobcreationfurtherhighlightits

importance.Wirelessenablesvastswathesofeconomicactivity,bothdirectlythroughinvestmentsincommunicationinfrastructureandindirectlybyenablingnewservicesandimprovingworker

productivity.Overthepastdecade,wirelesshascontributedover$5trillionofGDPand3millionjobstotheU.S.economy.

Approximately1.1GHzoflicensedspectrumbelow6GHzhassupportedthiseconomicgrowthandemployment.However,thewirelessindustryisrapidlyapproachingaspectrumdeficitthatwillresultinnetworkcongestion,therebyhinderingthecontinuedgrowthfueledbythewirelessindustry.

Projectionsindicatethatwirelessoperatorswillneedatleast400MHzofadditionalspectrumby2027tomeettheneedsoftheU.S.economy,adeficitthatwillcontinuetogrowtoover1400MHzby2032.

AdditionalwirelessspectrumisfundamentaltosomanyaspectsoftheU.S.economy.Inparticular,thisstudyfocusesontheeconomicactivityandconsumerbenefitsgeneratedby:

?continuedimprovementstomobileservicetomillionsofAmericans;

?improvedfixedbroadbandcoverageandpenetrationviafixedwirelessaccess(FWA);

?supportforindustriesthatrelyonmobileconnectivity,suchasvideostreamingandcutting-edgeVR/AR;and

?supportforindustriesthatservethewirelessindustry,suchasconstructionandelectronicmaintenance.

Allthiseconomicactivityandwirelessindustryinvestmentenabledbyadditionallicensedspectrum

willcontributesignificantlytotheAmericaneconomy.Weestimatethateachadditional100MHzof

mid-bandspectrumtomobilewillgenerate$264billionofGDP,about1.5millionnewjobs,andabout$388billioninconsumersurplus.Theimpactof400MHzofmid-bandspectrumwouldbe$1.1trillionofGDP,6.18millionnewjobs,andabout$1.5trillioninconsumersurplus.Beneficialeffectswould

continuetoaccumulatebeyond400MHz,andweestimatethatby2028even400MHzofnew5Gspectrumwillnotbeenoughtokeepupwithconsumerdemand.
