The telecom industry -- particularly the wireless segment -- got a bump last month when US Congress approved legislation that will free up spectrum for next generation wireless networks to meet the surging growth of mobile devices. According to The Associated Press, wireless carriers and technology companies have been demanding access to more of the airwaves to allow them to keep pace with the explosive growth of Internet-connected smartphones and tablet computers.
Congress passed a payroll tax bill that also includes a plan to raise billions of dollars by auctioning off television airwaves. The proceeds from the auction will be used to fund an extension of jobless benefits as well as the creation of a nationwide public safety wireless network.
