For large sites, people can apply for multiple licence areas to achieve the required coverage area.<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u2022 Medium power licence (per base station licence):<\/strong> Given the higher transmit power and larger potential interference area, this licence will be issued on a per base station basis and, generally, for deployments in rural areas only, where they are unlikely to constrain low power users.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Ofcom will charge an annual licence fee for both the low power licence (charged on a per area basis) and medium power licence (charged on a per base station basis). In practice this works out as \u00a380 +vat in the 1800MHz and 2300MHz bands, and \u00a380 per 10MHz in the 3.8 &#8211; 4.2 GHz band. Suffice to say that if you wanted a nice big 100MHz block then that would cost \u00a3800 per year.<\/p>\n<p>For the 26GHz band, the annual licence fee is \u00a3320 and does not vary by bandwidth. Meanwhile short-term licences of less than one year will be priced on a pro-rata basis, with a minimum cost of \u00a332 per licence.<\/p>\n<p>Separately, Ofcom also announced today that they&#8217;ve worked with the Ministry of Defence (MoD) to identify 168MHz of spectrum between 7.9GHz and 8.4GHz, which is not being used in a variety of locations and could help meet demand for fixed wireless services. As a result, organisations can now also apply for a fixed link licence in the 8GHz band via Ofcom&#8217;s point-to-point fixed link licence application form (only available in certain areas).<\/p>\n<p>So far the only company that we know of to have made use of this system is <a href=\"https:\/\/strattoopencell.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">StrattoOpencell<\/a>, which worked with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/go\/vodafoneuk\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Vodafone<\/a> to offer high-speed data via the 2.6GHz band in &#8220;<em>remote areas without fibre connectivity<\/em>&#8221; (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/2019\/10\/vodafone-uk-share-unused-4g-spectrum-for-rural-broadband.html\">here<\/a>). Many more are expected to follow and mobile operators will no doubt be keeping a close eye on how this affects them (so long as it doesn&#8217;t cause them interference or serve to drive-up the price of spectrum in future <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/link\/5g\">5G<\/a> auctions then they&#8217;ll probably be happy).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ofcom has today begun inviting applications for their new Shared Spectrum Licences, which enables small businesses to create their own local wireless networks in radio spectrum bands (ranging from 1.8GHz to 26GHz) that could previously only be used by national mobile and broadband providers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":20383,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"ngg_post_thumbnail":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[406,60,36,79,476],"class_list":["post-20382","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-uk_isp_news","tag-5g","tag-mobile-broadband","tag-ofcom-regulation","tag-white-space","tag-wifi"],"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"","error":""},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.2 -
