U.K. telecommunications services regulator Ofcom has proposed an update of some licenses held by mobile operators Vodafone and O2 (Telefonica) with the aim of enabling the deployment of 5G using those frequencies.
“In response to requests from Vodafone and Telefónica, we are proposing to make changes to some licenses they hold. The changes would allow them to deploy new technologies, including 5G, and deliver the next generation of connectivity and services to their users,” Ofcom said in a statement.
