This paper presents one possible approach for liberalization of the radio spectrum based around spectrum usage rights (SURs) which are technology and usage neutral. This is challenging technically because of the complexity of defining rights which are flexible and technology-neutral while retaining sufficient safeguards against interference. The work presented here is part of an ongoing process of defining and testing SURs. Of com is currently considering SURs, though is not committed to implementing them at this stage, and will issue further discussion documents on this area in due course.

In this paper, we analyze the paradigm shift of radio policy with the development of radio technology. In particular, we propose the definition of spectrum sharing, which is now omitted in the Korean radio law, and analyze the category of spectrum sharing depending on the licensing regime. Also we propose to extend the spectrum usage right, which defines only exclusive usage rights by spectrum auction in the Korean radio law, to all the stations which use radio spectrum and to restructure the Korean radio law.
