A number of countries are looking at 4.5 GHz  as a possible 5G band. Japan, its most serious supporter, plans to allocate the frequencies in March 2019. Other interested countries include China, Korea, Myanmar and Taiwan. Read more...

24.5-27.5 GHz, known as 26 GHz, was selected as a possible 5G band at WRC-15 and European regulators have chosen this as a core band for the technology. China has also expressed support for the band. However, backing from the US and elsewhere means a rejected band, 28 GHz, will… Read more...

Bands in this range are not being studied for possible 5G identification at WRC-19 and most regulators who supported an identification have since recanted. There is huge opposition from the satellite industry but 5G trials in 10-20 GHz are continuing with one operator seeking to leverage existing backhaul usage. Read more...

24-27 GHz was selected as a possible 5G band at WRC-15 and European regulators have chosen this as a core band for the technology. However, support in the US and elsewhere means two rejected bands, 28 GHz and 24 GHz, may also be used. Read more...

The ITU has identified 66-76 GHz as a candidate 5G band. With studies ongoing and the backing of major administrations and industry players the 66-76 GHz band has good potential and is up for further discussion at WC-19. The 70-80 GHz is already used for backhaul and fixed link services. Read more...

Not an ITU candidate band but likely to be used for 5G in the US and South Korea. Read more...
