Vodafone noted that WRC-23 will decide the future use of the 6 GHz spectrum band
U.K. carrier Vodafone said it has achieved 1 Gbps speeds in its ongoing network tests in the upper 6 GHz frequency band, ahead of a meeting of national regulators and industry members at the World Radiocommunication Conference (WRC-23), taking place in Dubai beginning this week.
Vodafone noted that WRC-23 will decide the future use of the 6 GHz spectrum band.
Vodafone confirmed it recently ran tests of both 6 GHz spectrum and its existing 5G network operating at 3.5 GHz. Using the same amount of bandwidth and radio antenna power, indoor speeds of more than 1 Gbps were achieved in both cases, the telco said.
