LMDS: A Primer on "SuperWireless Communications"

The FCC is about to auction off the largest allocation of spectrum in its history. Local Multipoint Distribution Service (LMDS) will allow license holders to control up to 1.3 GHz of wireless spectrum in the 28 to 38 GHz range. In addition, the LMDS rules do not specify service requirements but let the operators choose how to allocate the band among a wide range of two-way video, voice, and data products. The lack of restrictions on the use of the spectrum will make these licenses attractive to telecommunications competitors seeking alternative access to the end user including:

Competitive Local Exchange Carrier (CLECs)
Inter-exchange Carriers (IXCs)
Out of Region RBOCs
Foreign Carriers
Utilities

Today, the only licensed operator of an LMDS system is CellularVision of New York, a wholy owned. subsidiary of CellularVision USA (Nasdaq: CVUS). CellularVision has been widely credited with pioneering the LMDS technology and proving its viability throughout the world. In New York they provide a 48 channel subscription TV service, and recently entered the Internet access market with a high speed modem capable of receiving data at rates up to 48 Mbps.

John Walber, President and COO of CellularVision New York, will present an overview of LMDS. He will discuss LMDS architecture, hardware and services, with a particular focus on data products.
