The morning session covered industry perspectives and regulatory technical planning issues. The afternoon session looked at allocation issues, new ENG bands, LTE technologies and sharing options and included the perspective of broadcasters on current 2.5 GHz plans.
The day featured presentations from key ACMA staff involved with particular spectrum projects, as well as industry speakers.
