Business Editors/Technology Writers

BOCA RATON Boca Raton (bō`kə rətōn`), city (1990 pop. 61,492), Palm Beach co., SE Fla., on the Atlantic; inc. 1925. Boca Raton is a popular resort and retirement community that experienced significant industrial development in the 1970s and 80s. , Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--June 20, 2002

Michael J. Paolini, president of Wireless CATV (Community Antenna TV) The original name for cable TV. It used a single antenna at the highest location in the community in order to deliver a quality signal to homes in areas with hilly terrain or other interference.  Systems, Inc., announced today that the new company had been formed to take advantage of the recently announced FCC auctions that will license 500 MHz (MegaHertZ) One million cycles per second. It is used to measure the transmission speed of electronic devices, including channels, buses and the computer's internal clock. A one-megahertz clock (1 MHz) means some number of bits (16, 32, 64, etc.  of bandwidth in over three hundred US cities.

Mr. Paolini stated that this amount of bandwidth is equivalent to the entire spectrum available to a single satellite and is more than sufficient to construct true wireless CATV systems. Such systems have previously been unsuccessful due to insufficient transmission bandwidth and transmission format restrictions. Mr. Paolini further stated that the FCC (1) (Federal Communications Commission, Washington, DC, www.fcc.gov) The U.S. government agency that regulates interstate and international communications including wire, cable, radio, TV and satellite. The FCC was created under the U.S.  had made its decision to provide an alternative to the cable television and satellite platforms to the consumer and had stated in their FCC release "...the Commission has long sought to facilitate the development of a terrestrial wireless alternative, with limited success," and the Commission also stated, "Regardless of the type of service MVDDS (Multi-channel Video Distribution and Data Service) A licensed part of the spectrum for delivering digital video and/or downstream Internet service. Located within the DBS band of 12.2-12.  ultimately is, if successful, it has remarkable potential to benefit the American people An American people may be:
  • any nation or ethnic group of the Americas
  • see Demographics of North America
  • see Demographics of South America
."

Mr. Paolini stated that the Company would not only serve as consultants to those wishing to participate in the industry, it will also seek out strategic financial and telecommunication partners for what he perceives is the next large telecommunications opportunity in the 21st century.
