The Wireless Planning and Coordination (WPC) wing has proposed to reserve nearly 40 Mhz spectrum across various frequency bands to be used for indigenously developed telecom network products, say news reports.
The WPC, which controls spectrum usage in the country, has floated a draft national frequency allocation plan under which it has mapped out airwaves in four different bands including the 900Mhz, 1,800 Mhz and 1,900 Mhz frequency bands for exclusive use for indigenous products.
Currently, almost all of telecom network technology is being imported from multinational companies such as Ericsson and Nokia Siemens.
