Simplifying Management, Reallocation, and Transfer of Spectrum Act or the SMART Act

This bill requires the National Telecommunications and Information Administration to implement a standardized framework that facilitates the sharing of electromagnetic spectrum between nonfederal users and federal entities.

This framework must enable the secure management of harmful interference between nonfederal users and federal entities that share a spectrum band in order to ensure access by such nonfederal users to the spectrum band.
