Answer 1

Correct option is (a) Lack of spectrum access

To elaborate: Spectrum Policy Task Force identified the lack of capacity is due to the current regulations applied on spectrum access. SPTF supported multiple dimensional access of the spectrum. The FCC relies on SPTF to create spectrum policies and spectrum management techniques that could lead to better overall usage of the available spectrum.
