Ep # 21: Advancing America's Leadership Through 5G & 6G Innovation? With Eric Burger

ALYNMENT - Private Networks Technology to Business Alignment for Enterprises

Getting reliable, high-speed connectivity continues to be a challenge for enterprises, but things are changing! Private-sector innovation and government support are working to advance America's longtime leadership in wireless technologies. Spectrum sharing initiatives like CBRS are disruptive, DoD's investment in 5G testbeds is promising, and the recent decision by FCC to break free 100 MHz spectrum in the 3.45-3.55 GHz band is exciting. But how will all these initiatives help enterprises accelerate digital innovation?

Our guest today is going to help us weave through the maze of shared, flexible-use, and licensed mid-band 5G spectrum that is coveted for private business networks and how the latest 5G testbeds at the Department of Defense will benefit the private sector.
Dr. Eric Burger is a Professor and the Founder and Director of the Security and Software Engineering Research Center at Georgetown University. Before Georgetown, he served as the Assistant Director at the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy. He also served as the CTO of FCC and lead several public and private network equipment and enterprise software companies. He played a key role in implementing the regulations to remediate illegal robocalls AKA Spam Calls.
Dr. Burger also contributed to the Secure 5G and Beyond Act and led the program to identify and transfer 100 MHz of 5G mid-band spectrum from Federal DoD use to the private sector. Let us welcome Dr. Eric Burger.
