Current spectrum sharing frameworks have limitations. The challenges associated with present-day spectrum sharing are manifold. They span technical, economic, regulatory, political and national security dimensions that are exacerbated by strongly opposed views for or against sharing. Read more...

There is ongoing momentum around the world as regulators continue to earmark unlicensed or lightly-licensed frameworks spectrum for shared use by localised private networks. The same holds true for unlicensed 6 GHz policy implementations and expanded sharing arrangements in the lower 6 GHz range. A more recent development pertains to… Read more...

While WRC-23 identified portions of the upper 6 GHz band for IMT, there is emergent consideration of sharing between Wi-Fi and IMT in the range. Spectrum sharing is also under investigation between terrestrial and non-terrestrial networks underpinned by the need for 6G to be sharing native by design. Read more...

WRC-27 is set to consider three spectrum ranges for IMT identifications. All three ranges house a number of incumbent users – notably satellite, fixed and military and other critical services  – and are subject to extensive usage in many nations. The prospects for IMT sharing of the bands are uncertain… Read more...

Spectrum stakeholders around the world continue to examine spectrum-sharing frameworks across both unlicensed and licensed ranges and between public, commercial and private users under an array of sharing scenarios. Spectrum sharing is a broad term that encompasses multiple domains, modes of use and users and design and technical parameters. Progress… Read more...

PolicyTracker’s 6 GHz benchmark profiles implemented and planned unlicensed and licensed policies for spectrum in the band in 107 nations across all regions of the world. Sixteen new countries have now been added in the unlicensed category, bringing the total number of countries with unlicensed policies and plans to 100.… Read more...

As nations around the world continue to implement and plan unlicensed (and now licensed) 6 GHz policies, significant variance in policy approaches persists. This relates to targeted frequency ranges, permitted modes of operation and technical conditions for unlicensed operations, along with varied policy implementation mechanisms. Read more...
