WASHINGTON, June 18, 2026 – Federated Wireless is aiming to boost shared spectrum capacity without additional airwaves or network gear.
The company’s new Spectrum AI tool, which it said will be commercially available in mid-July, uses machine learning to judge the guard bands and power limits necessary to avoid interference for a given radio.
