radio spectrum licensing

Radio spectrum licensing is the process by which governments manage and allocate specific frequency ranges for wireless communication. Since the spectrum is a limited resource, licenses grant entities the right to transmit in designated bands, preventing interference between users. These licenses ensure devices and services, like radio, television, mobile phones, and Wi-Fi, operate smoothly and reliably. Licensing involves rules, fees, and sometimes auctions, to organize the use of this valuable electromagnetic space fairly and efficiently, supporting a wide range of communication needs and technological innovation.
