In 2023, Americans utilized over 100 trillion megabytes of wireless data, marking a record 36% increase from 2022, despite reducing phone talk time significantly.
The rise in wireless data usage is primarily driven by advancements in technology such as drones, self-driving vehicles, and precision agriculture, rather than traditional communication.
Meredith Attwell Baker, CEO of CTIA, stated that access to more full-power, licensed spectrum is essential to meet the booming demand for wireless and fuel innovation.
The establishment of the National Spectrum Strategy by the White House aims to enhance spectrum access and management to address the ongoing challenges in wireless communications.
