   On the first day of March, I gave a speech at Mobile World Congress,   
   where I announced my intentions to promote more efficient use of   
   spectrum through an exploration of receiver performance and   
   standards. As we turn the calendar to April, I'm working to get this   
   review underway as soon as possible. When it comes to unleashing   
   wireless innovation at the Commission, you could say that March came   
   in like a lion and is going out like a lion. Here's what you can   
   expect from this proceeding and the rest of the Commission's April   
   agenda.   
      
   We're taking an important step in innovative spectrum management. In   
   the past, the FCC's discussions of spectrum efficiency have been a   
   one-way effort, focusing almost exclusively on transmitters. I'm   
   proposing that the Commission take a fresh look at how receiver   
   improvements could provide greater opportunities for efficient use of   
   spectrum. If approved, this inquiry would explore how to promote these   
   improvements through incentives, guidelines, or regulatory   
   requirements. It would also seek comment on legal authority and   
   market-based mechanisms that could help create a more transparent and   
   predictable radiofrequency environment for all spectrum users - new   
   and old. I salute my colleague Commissioner Simington for his   
   leadership on this issue and collaboration on this item.   
      
   We're improving emergency alerts. When it comes to public safety,   
   Wireless Emergency Alerts have been a game-changer, harnessing the   
   power of mobile phones to help us receive targeted, real-time   
   information about imminent threats. This April will mark 10 years   
   since the first WEA was sent. To make sure this tool is even more   
   effective in the future, the Commission will consider a proposal to   
   require enhanced reporting on the reliability, speed, and accuracy of   
   their WEA service, and seek comment on further improvements to WEA.   
      
   We will consider two adjudicatory matters from our Media Bureau.   
      
   We will also consider an item from our Enforcement Bureau.
