[br]The 5G committee has asked the government to formulate "flexible conditions including sufficient quantum and duration of the spectrum, unified license, and single-window clearance" to conduct 5G trials, according to a report.[br][br]To recall, this 5G panel was formed in February by the DoT to make recommendations on key aspects related to carrying out 5G pilots in India.[br][br]Here's more on this development.[br][br][br][br]Panel seeks simplification of licensing norms[br][br]Citing a government source, the report says that the panel has asked the government to simplify the process for experimental license and that a "single window clearance and license for multiple locations should be provided."[br][br]The panel has also suggested the DoT to "take a relaxed approach for allowing quantum of the spectrum and look at awarding non-interfering radio waves for trials."[br][br][br]The panel has also recommended the quantum of waves[br][br]According to the report, the panel has also recommended on the quantum of wave frequencies required for 5G trials.[br][br]The panel has asked for lesser spectrum for Narrow IoT pilots whereas, for 5G New Radio (NR), it has requested for 100 MHz frequency.[br][br]In the mmWave band, the 5G committee has asked the government for as much as 400 MHz of airwaves.[br][br]For initial trial, the committee has asked for 1-year duration[br][br]The committee has requested the government to allocate a duration of 1 year for the initial trial of 5G in India.[br][br]The Karandikar-led panel has asked the department to overcome existing bottleneck related to licensing.[br][br]Presently, the government's Wireless Planning and Coordination (WPC) authority can award an experimental license for three months which is valid on radio links and not for full-fledged trials.[br][br][br][br]#Infinix_India.... |
