Germany’s Federal Network Agency (BNetzA) has confirmed that it will award spectrum for the provision of local 5G services in the second half of this year.
Under this process, German companies will be able to apply for spectrum in the 3.7-3.8 GHz band, the regulator said in a statement.
“There is great potential for 5G, especially in the industrial area,” BNetzA President Jochen Homann said. “We want to make frequencies available for companies to build local networks that exactly meet their needs.”
