BTL deep reading:5G advanced country spectrum and regulatory requirements
At present, all countries have announced the launch of 5G communication. According to the GSA Association's June report, 5G commercial services have been launched in 16 countries around the world, and many countries are subordinate to 5G network and commercial services.
Below we will give a simple explanation in four places: China\Japan\South Korea\Taiwan.

| SK Telecom | FR 1:n78(3600MHz~3700MHz) FR2:n257(28.1GHz~28.9GHz) | ||
China Taiwan | 2019/12 starting bidding is expected There are Chunghwa Telecom, Taiwan Big Brother, Far EasTone, Taiwan Star, Asia Pacific Telecom | FR1 : n28(703-748MHz) . n8 (885-915MHz) , n3 (1710-1785MHz) n1 (1920-1980MHz) , n7 (2500-2570MHz) n41 (2500-2570MHz , 2570-2620MHz , 2620-2690MHz) n78 (3300-3570MHz) FR2 : n257 (27GHz-29.5GHz) | Expected PLMN12 |
From the above table, the main frequency bands in Asia are the Sub-6G and the mm-Wave part of 28G.
At present, BTL has been subordinated to Sub-6G testing and can perform related RF/EMC/SAR testing. We also have a strong IA team to assist with South Korea's 5G certification. If you have 5G technology or certification issues, welcome to come. advisory.
