From the famous IEEE article at https://spectrum.ieee.org/telecom/wireless/the-end-of-spectrum-scarcity https://spectrum.ieee.org/telecom/wireless/the-end-of-spectr...:
> Moreover, interference is not some inherent property of spectrum. It's a property of devices. A better receiver will pick up a transmission where an earlier one heard only static. Whether a new radio system "interferes" with existing ones is entirely dependent on the equipment involved. Consequently, the extent to which there appears to be a spectrum shortage largely depends not on how many frequencies are available but on the technologies that can be deployed. Many regulations intended to promote harmony of the airwaves have instead, by putting artificial limits on technology, created massive inefficiency in spectrum utilization.
