 <description>&lt;h2&gt;Broadband PCS&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Personal communications services created in the A- through F-Block auctions and used for voice and data. Broadband PCS is allocated 140 MHz of spectrum with 20 MHz currently unassigned. Frequency blocks A, B, and C were each assigned 30 MHz of spectrum, while frequency blocks D, E, and F were each assigned 10 MHz of spectrum. (Cingular)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Licensees use broadband Personal Communications Service (PCS) spectrum for a variety of mobile and fixed radio services, also called wireless services. Mobile broadband PCS services include both voice and advanced two-way data capabilities that are generally available on small, mobile multifunction devices. The Commission and other wireless industry representatives often refer to these services as &quot;Mobile Telephone Services&quot; and &quot;Mobile Data Services.&quot; Many broadband PCS licensees offer these services in competition with existing cellular and SMR licensees. Examples of entities holding a significant amount of broadband PCS spectrum include AT&amp;amp;T Wireless and Sprint PCS.  (FCC)&lt;/p&gt;
