1800 MHz is the world’s most popular 4G band, especially in Regions 1 and 3. Read more...

Roughly analogous to the European 2.1 GHz and 1800 MHz mobile bands, the AWS family forms the basis of 3G and 4G services in the Americas. Read more...

The premier mid-range global 5G band. Many countries plan to assign at least 300 MHz of spectrum in 3.3 - 3.8 GHz for 5G networks. In the short-run, usage is likely to be dominated by 4G for capacity constrained areas or FWA in rural areas. Read more...

A portion of this band is set to become a key 5G band in the USA, Japan, and possibly beyond. These frequencies are being explored in some countries as an extension of 4G/5G frequency bands from 3.3 – 3.8 GHz, sometimes to be made available on a shared and/or local basis. Read more...

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

6 GHz is a promising 5G frequency, likely to be subject to a long fight between mobile and unlicensed communities, possibly culminating at WRC-23.  This note also considers proposals for other 5G bands above 6 GHz and below 24 GHz. Read more...
