These bands, currently held by ministries such as space, defense, broadcasting, railways and housing, include portions of the mid-band, according to previous reports. A significant portion of the current spectrum is used by legacy systems, such as those in the armed forces and the space department, which will be relocated to alternative frequencies to free up space.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The refarming of 687 megahertz spectrum brings the total available spectrum for Indian carriers to 1,587 megahertz The Government of India has approved the refarming of 687 megahertz of spectrum from various ministries for the deployment of 5G and future 6G services, local press reported, citing the country\u2019s communications minister Jyotiraditya Scindia, as saying.
