700 MHz and 2600 MHz

• The spectrum is currently being used for broadcasting service. After digitalization of TV broadcast, this spectrum (Digital Dividend) could be made available for mobile broadband communication

• Re-farming process & timeframe and Auction process & timeframe are still unclear

• Dtac would prefer the 700 MHz band plan as• It provides more spectrum• No conflict with existing 850 MHz • Coverage band for LTE

Digital Dividend (700 MHz)

• NBTC needs to re-farm 2600 MHz

• It is European standard LTE capacity band

2600 MHz

12

700 MHz band is prime LTE coverage band

2600 MHz is prime LTE capacity band
