- Capacity increases linearly with bandwidth
but
only logarithmically with SNR. Returns diminsh dramatically above SNR
of
20 dB (past the "knee" of the curve)
- It follows directly from Shannon's Law that nonexclusive
licensing of large, contiguous regions of radio spectrum, combined with
interference mitigation techniques such as antenna gain
requirements, spectrum etiquettes, and cognitive radio technology, maximize the number of
high
bandwidth links which can be created using a given region of the radio
spectrum. Why?
