The core 3G mobile band in most countries, the 2.1 GHz band can be refarmed to 4G and 5G. Adjacent spectrum has become a battleground between the mobile and satellite companies but there is hope that this was resolved at WRC-19 Read more...

A 5G-only band that could form an attractive alternative to the C-Band in Asia, Africa, and the former Soviet Union. Despite initial interest, there has been a recent decrease in the number of planned assignments. Read more...

26 GHz is considered the first mmWave 5G band in China and Europe. Read more...

A 5G-only band that could form an attractive alternative or complement to the C-Band in Asia, Africa, and the former Soviet Union. Its use in the West is limited by military and public safety considerations. Read more...

Many regulators are making this band available for unlicensed/licence exempt services, but the mobile industry may gain some access to this spectrum too. Read more...

WRC-23 will consider an IMT identification for 10-10.5 GHz in Region 2. Prior to WRC-19 there appeared limited international pressure for commercial use of this spectrum. Momentum may build around 10 GHz as a licensed 5G candidate band as a result of WRC-19. Read more...

Despite initial interest before WRC-19, the 31.8-33.4 GHz band, also referred to as 32 GHz, does not currently have a global mobile allocation and there are no future plans for the band to be discussed at upcoming WRCs. Read more...

This spectrum has been auctioned in the US. It was also identified for IMT at WRC-19 in several countries, but there are few plans to award the band. Read more...

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

The core 3G mobile band in most countries, the 2.1 GHz band may be refarmed to 4G in due course. Adjacent spectrum has become a battleground between the mobile and satellite industries but there is hope that this was resolved at WRC-19 Read more...
