The Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (Trai) has begun work on a consultation paper for auctioning of spectrum in four bands: the two crucial satellite bands which include Ka (satellite to earth 17.221.2 GHz and upload from 27.5-31 GHz) and KU (10.7-14.5 GHz) which enable broadband services, and the contentious E band (7176 to 81-86 GHz) as well as the V band (between 57-71 GHz).
The E band was recently offered by the DoT for 5G backhaul to operators in the interim at an administrative price, pending a final decision on how it will be allocated.
The move comes just a few days after the DoT sent references on these issues to the regulator. "Yes, we have received four references just a day or two before from the DoT and will come out with consultation papers in this regard soon. The process has already started. We will be carrying out studies and gathering data. We will examine possible options, new technological trends, and international practices so that we are able to come up with appropriate questions for consultation," said a senior Trai official.
