Telefónica, Nokia and the Polytechnic University of Valencia (UPV) are taking a new step in the evolution of mobile communications thanks to a pilot project using the upper part of the 6 GHz band (6 425-7 125 GHz, 3GPP n° 104). This band is considered essential by the main European telecommunications operators, including Telefónica, for [...] The post Telefónica, Nokia and the UPV demonstrate, through a pilot project, that the 6 GHz band is adap…
We are facing one of the technological developments that will mark the fate of the EU on wireless networks, and according to what we will see, the thing is twisting in Europe. With the wireless spectrum increasingly limited, the EU faces a technical and political pulse that can end badly. The battle for the top 6 GHz band (6,425 to 7,125 MHz) confronts the Wi-Fi Alliance and the Dynamic Spectrum Alliance (DSA) against the continent’s large mobil…
After a successful performance test in Europe, Telefónica and Nokia insisted that the 6 GHz band is critical to ensuring the future of mobile connectivity. Actors validated the band’s capacity in a pilot that took place on the Campus of the Polytechnic University of Valencia (UPV) and involved the adaptation of the 5G holographic laboratory. “The 6 GHz band offers a bandwidth significantly higher than that of 3.
The European Union is preparing to resolve a highly strategic issue for the future of connectivity: should the 6 GHz band, the backbone of the 6E and future Wi-Fi 7 networks, remain open to sharing or be reserved for mobile operators for the deployment of advanced 5G and 6G? Behind this technical battle is in reality a war of influence between two digital visions: that of free and community access to connectivity, and that of a hundred-year cont…
Telefónica and Nokia Ahead of Brussels: Show that the 6 Ghz Band Is Key to the Autonomous Car and 6g
In a key week for the European Commission to decide how it assigns the 6 GHz bands, Telefónica and Nokia take a giant step by successfully testing the high frequencies for autonomous driving and other industries. The future of 6G and WiFi connectivity is decided this month. Brussels is immersed in debate to decide the strategy it will execute on the allocation of the 6 GHz bands. And its decision depends to a large extent on everything we can ex…
The European Union is debating the allocation of the 6GHz band (6,425~7,125MHz). Mobile operators want to use it for 5G/6G network construction, while the Wi-Fi camp wants to use it to improve the home and business network experience. This band differs from the 5,945~6,425MHz band used by Wi-Fi 6E/7. Currently, the EU is considering a shared solution, but Germany prefers to prioritize its use for cellular networks, raising concerns among the Wi-…
