More spectrum will be made available for spectrum licensing, bringing 5G mobile broadband services a step closer for Australia.
The Australian Communications and Media Authority is preparing to reallocate spectrum in the 3.6 GHz band, and to move to more efficient arrangements in the 900 MHz band for advanced mobile broadband technologies.
The 3.6 GHz band is being looked at internationally as a pioneer band for 5G mobile broadband. We want to make sure Australia is well placed to realise the benefits 5G has to offer, said ACMA Chair Nerida OLoughlin.
