5G Snapshot
Important changes since the last 5G Snapshot include:
At present, GSA is aware of 59 countries in the world that are either formally considering introducing certain spectrum bands for terrestrial 5G services, holding consultations regarding suitable spectrum allocations for 5G, have reserved spectrum for 5G, have announced plans to auction frequencies or have already allocated spectrum for 5G use. (Note: all references to 5 countries in this document can be read as also including territories, special administrative regions, disputed territories and dependencies.) This figure includes countries examining/allocating spectrum on a technology-neutral basis with 5G in mind, but excludes countries undertaking such initiatives in relation to spectrum that is being allocated primarily for the provision of 3G or 4G services. Some countries have multiple initiatives underway.
