VISION:
------

The IEEE DySPAN 2005 will be a new, first-of-its-kind IEEE symposium
on "Dynamic Spectrum Access" (DSA) networks.  Current technology
trends indicate that high performance, low-power signal processing,
reconfigurable RF front ends, wide-band spectrum sensing and real-time
spectrum allocation and acquisition will enable a new paradigm of DSA
Networks.  In addition, the spectrum policy community (both
international and domestic) has clearly recognized the potential of
this technology and is addressing its impact on 21st Century spectrum
management by adopting flexible, market-based policies and rules for
unlicensed devices and licensed radio systems. This is therefore an
opportune time to have a single, premier forum that brings together a
broad range of representatives, researchers, practitioners and policy
makers from industry, academia, and government from around the globe
who are engaged in cutting edge explorations in technology, policies
and legal aspects of emerging DSA networks.  The highlight will
include (possibly) a keynote by the FCC Chairman, Assistant Secretary
of Commerce, or another key policymaker.
