... CTL should foster collaboration between the Core Networks and Next-Generation Wireless teams to find and leverage synergies. FUNDAMENTAL ELECTROMAGNETIC TECHNOLOGIES AND STANDARDS Key Recommendation 4: Given the fundamental nature of FETS, the Radio Frequency Technology Division should create a system or database that tags key projects and links them to other work within or between different CTL focus areas, divisions, or NIST laboratory projects.

... Key Recommendation 11: The Spectrum Sharing and Sensing team should collaborate closely with the Rydberg Atom-based Radio Frequency Field Probe team to examine the probe's potential application to spectrum sensing and metrology and identify key technology opportunities in the space of spectrum metrology. FACILITIES, EQUIPMENT, AND PERSONNEL Key Recommendation 12: CTL should immediately prioritize its budget allocations to rectify the Building 24 issues by making improvements or relocating its work to an improved facility.

... Key Recommendation 14: As part of the CTL diversification staff strategy, CTL should encourage and partner with technical staff to develop a strategic plan that leverages existing and potential opportunities available for growing and training the talent pool within the desired areas of expertise with the help of professional societies and minority-serving institutions campuses. Examples of these opportunities include partnering with historically black colleges and universities, Hispanic-serving institutions, Project Connect, and the Advancing Minorities' Interest in Engineering organization.
