A growing number of regulators are moving to assign or set aside spectrum for private networks. This Research Note provides an overview of the status of spectrum earmarked for localized usage highlighting global and regional trends and setting the stage for more detailed consideration of private spectrum policy approaches that… Read more...

A growing number of nations are assigning spectrum for localised use by private networks. This is particularly the case in Europe, followed by Asia-Pacific and to a lesser degree the Americas. This Note provides a regional overview of the status of policy planning related to spectrum earmarked for localised use. Read more...

Assignment of spectrum in the 3.3 - 3.8 GHz range dominates private spectrum policy agendas, followed by spectrum in the 26 GHz and 28 GHz ranges. Despite this focus on mid-band and mmWave spectrum, there is wide variance in both spectrum bands and bandwidth amounts allocated for private use across… Read more...

As a growing number of nations move to assign spectrum for private local networks there is a wide variance in approaches – not only in terms of spectrum policy. Local licensing frameworks are also highly fragmented across parameters including definitions of local coverage areas, spectrum usage conditions and spectrum fees. Read more...
