PolicyTracker’s unlicensed 6 GHz benchmark now includes 83 nations and territories where unlicensed policies are either planned or in place. Seventy-seven per cent of nations in the benchmark have authorised or are planning to authorise unlicensed use of the lower 6 GHz range (5295/5245—6425 MHz). The remaining 23 per cent… Read more...
