This document outlines the "The Value Estimation of an HFGW Frequency Time Standard for Telecommunications Network Optimization", a STAIF 2007 presentation outlining both a scientific and business model for the integration of emerging HFGW research into the telecommunications industry. Stephenson and Harper outline an initial application to provide an unpeturbed frequency time standard (FTS), which takes advantage of the higher penetration of HFGW carrier signals.

"A conceptual design for an HFGW Frequency Time Standard system was presented that is predicted to result in a number of potentially valuable enhancements to existing telecommunication systems. Enhancements could include improved TDMA due to better time knowledge, improved phase shift encoding efficiency due to lower phase noise, and improved FDMA and FHSS efficiencies due to better frequency knowledge. The worldwide deployment of an HFGW FTS system was conservatively estimated to accrue $50 Billion in value over the first 10 years of operation.

More specifically, one of the U.S. FCC’s last decade’s auctions (Auction 14 for Wireless Communications Services in ’97) brought ~$14B for 30Mhz approximately nationwide coverage. Applying the 2.5x simple capacity multiplier, another potentially $20B (low-side) in value could be created in these bands alone. For all these reasons, we view our value estimation—even at an order of magnitude smaller--as sufficiently conservative, supportable, and transparent to merit serious ongoing dialog regarding commercialization of an HFGW FTS service." -- Colby Harper & Gary Stephenson
