Renewing U.S. Telecommunications Research

Committee on Telecommunications Research and Development,National Research Council,National Academy of Sciences,Computer Science and Telecommunications Board,Division on Engineering and Physical Sciences

The modern telecommunications infrastructurea made possible by research performed over the last several decadesa is an essential element of the U.S. economy. The U.S. position as a leader in telecommunications technology, however, is at risk because of the recent decline in domestic support of long-term, fundamental telecommunications research. To help understand this challenge, the National Science Foundation asked the NRC to assess the state of telecommunications research in the United States and recommend ways to halt the research decline. This report provides an examination of telecommunications research support levels, focus, and time horizon in industry, an assessment of university telecommunications research, and the implications of these findings on the health of the sector. Finally, it presents recommendations for enhancing U.S. telecommunicationsa ™ research efforts.
