radio spectrum management

Radio spectrum management involves organizing and regulating the use of the electromagnetic spectrum to ensure wireless communication devices—like phones, TV, radio, and Wi-Fi—work efficiently without interference. Since the spectrum is a limited resource, authorities assign specific frequency bands to different users and applications. They also set rules to prevent conflicts and optimize performance. Effective management enables reliable, high-quality wireless services and supports technological innovation while making the best use of this valuable, finite resource for society’s communication needs.
