Subject: What's New In 5G - February 2021
by Russell H. Fox , Scott Thompson , Angela Y. Kung , Daniel P. Reing
and Christen B'anca Glenn
The next-generation of wireless technologies - known as 5G - is
here. Not only is it expected to offer network speeds that are up to
100 times faster than 4G LTE and reduce latency to nearly zero, it
will allow networks to handle 100 times the number of connected
devices, revolutionizing business and consumer connectivity and
enabling the "Internet of Things." Leading policymakers - federal
regulators and legislators - are making it a top priority to ensure
that the wireless industry has the tools it needs to maintain
U.S. leadership in commercial 5G deployments. This blog provides
monthly updates on FCC actions and Congressional efforts to win the
race to 5G.

Subject: ISPs step up fight against SpaceX, tell FCC that Starlink
will be too slow
SpaceX's FCC broadband funding faces more opposition from telco trade groups.
By Jon Brodkin
More broadband-industry groups are lining up against SpaceX's bid to
get nearly $900 million in Federal Communications Commission
funding. Two groups representing fiber and rural Internet providers
yesterday submitted a report to the FCC claiming that Starlink will
hit a capacity shortfall in 2028, when the satellite service may be
required to hit a major FCC deployment deadline.
