FCC Sets Up White Spaces University

International white spaces enthusiasts could soon get a little one-on-one time with the Federal Communications Commission.

The agency announced Friday that it has created a new International TV White Spaces Fellowship and Training Initiative – a white spaces university of sorts for regulators and technical experts.

The initiative “will provide a platform for the FCC to work with international regulators and their spectrum experts on technical issues associated with the use of TV white spaces and further build on our momentum in this area,” FCC chairman Kevin Martin said in a statement.

The commission’s Office of Engineering and Technology and the International Bureau will oversee the effort, though they have not yet announced details on how and when people can apply. Some people will be trained remotely, while other fellows will be invited to FCC facilities.
