Abstract
Principal features of personal communications service (PCS), namely, ubiquity, portability, and integration of voice and data, are examined, highlighting some issues affecting the spectrum choices before today´s policymakers. Spectrum issues are discussed, focusing on two tools for promoting efficient spectrum use: the use of generic service definitions and band assignment.<>
