European Union: the 26GHz band for 5G services

Today, the European committed officially the 26GHz band for the upcoming 5G services throughout its territory, paving the way for the use of the millimeter wave in Europe by the end of next year.

26GHz 5g Europe

Separate auctions were held in the US for different millimeter wave bands in the 24GHz and 28GHz bands. The European Commission has selected a wide range from 24.25 to 27.5GHz for the upcoming 5G devices - on a non-exclusive basis.

The similarity between the US and EU spectrum distribution should exist to allow manufacturers to easily develop and test globally compatible 5G devices with kilometer waves.

The European Union has already adopted two "breakthrough zones" for the upcoming 5G. A low frequency at 700MHz and a middle band at 3.. The first offers slower but long-distance coverage of wireless signals, while the second covers shorter distances but is faster.

By comparison, the 26GHz band will have the shortest signal distance, but much faster speeds, a formula more useful for high-density / concentration urban areas.

The EU requires all its Member States to pass the necessary legislation to allow the use of the 26GHz band by 31 December 2020.

It is initially expected that the 26GHz spectrum will be used for fixed 5G broadband services, faster 5G mobile, mixed reality, as well as for some industrial applications.
