The India Government frees up 5 GHz spectrum for Wi-Fi & 5G services. Users will surf the web unlimited in the frequency range of 5150-5250 MHz band.

The good news for anyone in India is that the Government has officially announced to free up 5 GHz spectrum for Wi-Fi & 5G services. That means users can use Wi-Fi unlimitedly in the frequency range of 5150-5875 Mhz band.

The government’s purpose is to boost setting up and exploiting Wifi services as well as 5G ones, and avoid the overload on telecom networks.

According to the statistics, India now has only 31,500 hotspots instead of 8 million ones as expected. For this reason, the government gave the move to de-license these bands in 5 GHz.

The 5 GHz spectrum frequency will be mainly covered in shopping centers and apartments. The 5G ecosystem is also paid special attention.

The government told that there would be possibly approximately 1 crore Wi-Fi hotspots in the rural area. Additionally, the devices with the wideband digital modulation techniques can access the free spectrum. It’s clearly a good luck for telecom companies.
