Why It Matters
Radio frequency spectrum has become a vital resource in need of balance that can be achieved through innovative advancements in policy and technology.
The World’s Largest Academic Hub for Radio Spectrum Stakeholders
NSF SpectrumX, initiated by a 5-year, $25M center grant from the U.S. National Science Foundation, is the world’s largest academic hub where all radio spectrum stakeholders can innovate, collaborate, and contribute to maximizing social welfare of this precious resource.
NSF SpectrumX brings together broad and synergistic research capabilities from a team of 87 student researchers and 66 research partners and staff from 30 universities, a key federal research facility, and a pioneering corporate partner; a multitude of relationships across industry, government, and academia; and significant experience in interdisciplinary research collaboration, policy engagement, and educating students at all levels about spectrum use and related topics.
