Stressing that the entire 6 GHz band should be delicensed for WiFi services, the tech industry has highlighted that enough spectrum in various bands has already been provided for 5G and for future needs. It added that the international telecommunication union<\/a> (ITU) is deliberating on allocating spectrum in 7-24 GHz bands as well as in 4800 MHz band for 5G.
In a letter to K Rajaraman, secretary, Department of Telecommunications<\/a> (DoT) dated March 29, the Broadband India Forum<\/a> (BIF) pressed its demands for delicensing the 6 GHz, so that affordable broadband can be provided to rural and remote areas of the country using WiFi technologies.
“At the outset, it needs to be emphatically stated that there are no references to 5G deployment using the 6 GHz spectrum band anywhere in the world. Being a globally harmonised 3GPP technology, 5G is required to be deployed in globally harmonised spectrum bands for optimal use and efficiency. 6 Ghz spectrum band is not one such band,” BIF President TV Ramachandran said in the letter, a copy of which has been seen by ET.
BIF counts the likes of Amazon<\/a>, Google<\/a>, Meta, Qualcomm<\/a>, TCS, Intel, Cisco and Microsoft<\/a> as its members.
The BIF’s reaction comes against demands by telecom operators Bharti Airtel, Reliance Jio Infocomm and Vodafone Idea, who want the 6 GHz band to be auctioned, saying it is useful for commercial deployment of 5G services as well as for 5.5G and 6G in the future.
At present, the 6 GHz band is partly used for Indian Space Research Organisation satellite operations. The prize 6 GHz offers is huge. It can support internet speeds of up to 10 Gbps, similar to 5G speeds, or up to 100 times faster internet speed than 4G.
According to telcos, WiFi services offered by technology companies on 6 GHz would be similar to the connectivity services that telcos offer. But they would use spectrum that is practically free and without any regulatory burden of, say, licence fees and security compliances, thus upending the principle of ‘same service, same rules.’
The tech industry, however, feels otherwise.
BIF said ITU has initiated preliminary studies on the use of a portion of the 6 GHz band for 5G purposes in Region 1 (which includes the Americas and UK), and the outcomes of these studies are expected to be revealed at the upcoming World Radio Conference (WRC-23) later in Q4 this year. “But it is worth noting that the US regulator, FCC, was one of the earliest countries to delicense the 6 GHz band in April 2020. Since then, more than 50 countries have followed suit. While a majority of them have delicensed the entire 1200 Mhz in the 6 GHz band, some countries including the EU have delicensed the lower part of the band”.
The tech industry group noted that with the availability and benefits of superior and standardized WiFi technologies such as WiFi 6E and WiFi 7 in the 6 GHz band, many countries with much smaller requirements than India have delicensed the entire 6 GHz spectrum band for greater broadband proliferation through WiFi.
Ramachandran said to meet the visionary objective of achieving 50 million public WiFi hotspots by 2030 as part of the Bharat 6G Vision, India requires a significantly larger amount of delicensed spectrum than the measly 680 MHz currently available in the overcrowded 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz spectrum bands.
To serve a population of 1.4 billion consumers with 50 million WiFi hotspots spread at every nook and corner of the country, India needs much more delicensed spectrum to achieve its national goals,” BIF added.

全球6 GHz不用于5克,应该delicensed: BIF点
强调整个6 GHz乐队应该delicensed WiFi服务,高新技术产业已经强调,已经提供了足够的光谱各波段5 g和未来需求。它补充道,国际电信联盟(ITU)正在考虑在7-24 GHz频段的频谱分配以及4800 MHz频带5 g。

强调整个6 GHz乐队应该delicensed WiFi服务,高新技术产业已经强调,已经提供了足够的光谱各波段5 g和未来需求。它补充说,国际电信联盟(ITU)正在考虑在7-24 GHz频段的频谱分配以及4800 MHz频带5 g。
在一封给K拉,秘书,电信部(点)3月29日宽带印度论坛(BIF)按其要求delicensing 6 GHz,这样实惠的宽带可以提供给农村和偏远地区的国家使用无线技术。
在一开始,它需要着重指出,没有引用5 g部署使用6 GHz频段乐队在世界任何地方。作为一个全球统一3 gpp技术,5 g需要部署在全球统一的最优频谱乐队使用和效率。6 Ghz频段乐队不是这样一个乐队,“BIF电视拉马钱德兰在信中表示,总统已被外星人的副本。
BIF的喜欢亚马逊,谷歌元,高通TCS,英特尔、思科和微软为其成员。
BIF的反应是对要求电信运营商Bharti Airtel依赖Jio Infocomm和沃达丰的想法,希望6 GHz乐队被拍卖,谁说它是有用的商业部署5 g服务以及5.5 g和在未来6克。
目前,6 GHz乐队部分用于印度空间研究组织卫星操作。奖6 GHz提供是巨大的。它可以支持10 Gbps的网速,类似于5 g的速度,或者比4 g网络速度快100倍。
根据电信公司,提供无线服务技术公司在6 GHz类似于电信公司提供的连接服务。但他们会使用频谱,几乎是免费的,没有任何的监管负担,说,许可证费用和安全遵从性,从而颠覆的原则同样的服务,同样的规则。
然而,科技行业的感觉。
BIF说电联已开始初步研究使用6 GHz乐队的一部分用于5 g在区域1(包括美国和英国),和这些研究的结果将显示在即将到来的世界无线电会议(WRC-23)在今年第四季度。”,但值得注意的是,美国监管机构,FCC,是最早的国家之一delicense 6 GHz乐队在2020年4月。从那时起,已经有超过50个国家紧随其后。虽然大多数人delicensed整个1200 Mhz的6 GHz乐队,一些国家包括欧盟delicensed下部的乐队”。
科技产业集团指出,可用性和优越的好处和标准化等无线技术WiFi 6 e和WiFi 7中6 GHz乐队,很多小得多的国家需求比印度delicensed整个6 GHz频段带更大的宽带扩散通过WiFi。
拉马钱德兰说见面的有远见的目标实现5000万年2030年公共WiFi热点巴拉特6克的愿景的一部分,印度需要一个明显增大的delicensed频谱拥挤的少得可怜的680 MHz目前2.4 GHz和5 GHz频段。
服务人口14亿与5000万年消费者WiFi热点传播在这个国家的每一个角落,印度需要更多delicensed光谱实现其国家目标,”BIF补充道。
