GSME calls for UHF band to be opened up to mobile and fixed telecoms service:Wireless Design & Development

GSM Europe has called on the European Commission to define a harmonised sub-band within the Ultra High Frequency (UHF) band, which is currently used for broadcasting analogue television, to be used for fixed and mobile telecoms applications. This is one of the options set out in the Radio Spectrum Policy Group's (RSPG) Opinion on "EU Spectrum Policy Implications of the Digital Dividend", which examines how UHF spectrum could be used once television broadcasting has become entirely digital within the European Union. The RSPG advises the European Commission on spectrum policy.
