450 MHz was one of the first mobile bands but its use for consumer services has declined and it is now being promoted as an ideal band for industrial use cases such as utilities and governmental services. Read more...

1800 MHz is the world’s most popular 4G band, especially in Regions 1 and 3, but it is also emerging as a key 5G band in some European countries. Read more...

Using spectrum above 90 GHz for mobile is in the experimental phase, perhaps for “6G”. There are no prospects for an IMT identification. Read more...

There has been some regulatory activity in this range since nearly 6 GHz was identified for possible 5G usage at WRC-15. The competition concerns of US mobile operators also show the importance of the 37-40.5 GHz range. Read more...

7.7 GHz in 40-50 GHz was identified for possible 5G usage at WRC-15 with wide support from both the mobile industry and its traditional foes. With the wide bandwidth available that makes the chosen bands very promising prospects. Industry support is concentrated at the lower end of the band Read more...

A limited number of stakeholders support further research in this band with several proposals to ease regulation to stimulate innovation. However, most stakeholders feel that lower bands should be the first priority and nothing in this range was agreed as an ITU 5G candidate band. Read more...
