PolicyTracker’s 4G and 5G Spectrum Guide

For the past three years we have published the leading resource for sector professionals seeking to understand future directions in 4G and 5G spectrum. The new edition has been updated for 2019 and is now available for purchase. For the first time it includes an analysis of the satellite sector, explaining its future spectrum needs and how these can be integrated into the planning for 5G.

The report is based on wide-ranging interviews with key industry professionals from vendors, operators, OTT players, national regulators, the ITU and regional ITU bodies. It includes the latest developments in the WRC-19 planning process following the 2nd ITU Inter-regional Workshop in Geneva

It also draws on data from our spectrum database of nearly 4000 licences worldwide and the daily monitoring of spectrum issues in the PolicyTracker newsletter.
