Wireless Comparative Analysis and Best Practices Education Project
Community Partners, the California Community Technology Policy Group, the Broadband Institute of California and the California Emerging Technology Fund are pleased to announce the launch of an exciting new project on wireless networks.
This project, the Wireless Comparative Analysis and Best Practices Education Project, is an aggressive 2-year program to identify and promote best practices and models for wireless networks, with a special emphasis on digital inclusion. These best practices and models will be available to community leaders, industry representatives and government officials for their use as they consider, develop and implement the most effective, inclusive, and sustainable wireless networks.
Some of the project activities and tasks include:
- A comprehensive literature review of recent articles on wireless projects.
- A review of wireless regulations to identify incentives and barriers that might support or constrain wireless implementation.
- Comparative analysis of 20 identified case study cities and/or regions.
- Development of principles for local jurisdictions to consider related to information technology, high-speed communications, and advanced communications services.
- Delineation of wireless best practices, including digital inclusion strategies and community benefits, as identified through the research and input from stakeholders and a Panel of Expert Advisors.
