This Decision harmonizes the conditions for the availability and efficient use of the 5 945-6 425 MHz frequency band for wireless access systems including radio local area networks (WAS/RLANs). Because of the growing number and diversity of devices for wireless access systems including radio local area networks (‘WAS/RLANs’) and rising connection speeds and data traffic volumes, there is a need to harmonize new spectrum resources for the provision of wireless broadband via WAS/RLANs in addition to the spectrum already available on a non-exclusive basis in the 2,4 GHz (2 400-2 483,5 MHz) and 5 GHz (5 150- 5 350 MHz and 5 470-5 725 MHz) frequency bands. Additional spectrum for WAS/RLANs should support the wide channels required for many applications (including videoconferencing, downloading media, telemedicine, online learning, and gaming, augmented reality, and virtual reality) which need a large bandwidth in order to achieve gigabit speeds. Such applications have also become increasingly important in the coronavirus crisis.
