On
the
consumer
side,
as
the
move
to
smart
phones
and
4G/5G
shows,
the
public
appetite
for
bandwidth
is
growing
rapidl
y
.
This
is
driving
the
re-farming
of
spectrum
in
auctions,
spectrum
clearing
activity,
coverage
checks,
and
inevitabl
y,
activity
by
the
broadcasters,
who
are
giving
up
some
of
this
spectrum.
•
Emergency
services
are
expanding
into
new
bands
with
new
technologies
–
P25,
new
versions
of
TETRA,
or
moving
to
LTE.
This
migration
drives
spectrum
monitoring
needs
similar
to
the
cellular
needs,
even
if
on
a
smaller
scale.
•
Defense
departments
around
the
world
are
becoming
more
and
more
dependent
on
electronic
communications
–
for
routine
messaging,
tactical
communications,
and
covert
operations.
In
each
area,
spectrum
monitoring
is
used
to
ensure
reliable
communications.
The
need
for
ef
fective
spectrum
monitoring
will
only
grow
for
the
foreseeable
future.
This
note
will
help
you
understand
the
tradeoffs
in
monitoring
spectrum,
as
well
as
how
to
set
up
your
analyzer
for
your
situation.
