Regulator concludes 4G licensing evaluation; aiming for fourth operator

The Telecommunications Office of the Slovak Republic (TU SR) has presented its evaluation of operators’ responses to its public consultation on the forthcoming tender for the allocation of 800MHz, 1800MHz and 2.6GHz band frequencies. The Office is preparing the tender to promote the availability of broadband access networks, in line with Slovakia’s national broadband strategy. Public consultations on the 790MHz-862MHz ‘digital dividend’ band freed up by the analogue-to-digital TV switchover – including papers published in March 2009, May 2010 and May 2011 – concluded that frequency licences based on technological- and service-neutrality should be issued, suitable for 4G Long Term Evolution (LTE) mobile broadband services, with an auction expected in the second quarter of 2012.
