Regulatory Conditions Support mmWave Value
5G Fixed
Wireless Access
already permitted
with
a clear path to
mobile services
āā 5G is expected to be a mix of
fixed and mobile services in the
mmWave bands and there are a
variety of different use cases
expected to develop once 5G is
deployed. ISED has decided to
adopt a flexible use licensing
model for fixed and mobile
services in the 38 GHz band as it
will allow licensees to decide
whether to deploy fixed systems,
mobile systems or a combination
of fixed and mobile systems to
meet the demands of 5G
services."
