<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">The Spectrum Innovation Initiative (SII) seeks to chart out a trajectory to ensure United States leadership in future wireless technologies, systems, and applications in science and engineering through the
efficient use and sharing of the radio spectrum. The National Center for Wireless Spectrum Research (SII-Center) will serve as a focal point for sustained spectrum research in the most challenging areas that are expected to create advanced wireless technologies
and systems that benefit society, of which 5G and future cellular networks are an example. The SII-Center solicitation supports Multiple SII-Center Planning Grant awards funded at a level of up to $300,000 for up to 12 months as well as one SII-Center award
funded at a level of up to $5,000,000/year for 5 years. The SII team will held a webinar on Fri, May 08, 2020, 1:00PM – 2:00PM EDT that will cover the solicitation, submission requirements and program updates.
