FCC Begins Process For Spectrum Frontiers Auctions

The Federal Communications Commission adopted a Public Notice seeking comment on proposed application and bidding procedures for the auctions of the 28 GHz and 24 GHz spectrum bands.

The Public Notice proposes to offer approximately 6,000 licenses through two auctions. Bidding in Auction 101 (28 GHz) will commence on November 14, 2018. Bidding in Auction 102 (24 GHz) will commence immediately after the conclusion of Auction 101. The FCC also proposes to have separate application filing windows for the auctions and seeks comment on whether to apply certain auction rules, e.g., prohibition on certain communications, across both auctions.
