The newest edition of the 5G Observatory bi-annual report has now been published.
The latest report covers several new 5G developments across the European Union, and tracks progress towards Digital Decade targets. Additionally, the report also features a new editorial assessing the potential impact of edge cloud computing on the telecommunications sector.
Overall, basic 5G household coverage (including both standalone 5G and non-standalone 5G) now stands at 89% across the EU. Of this, network coverage that relies specifically on the high-performance 3.6 GHz band has reached 51%.
The number of 5G base stations deployed in Europe meanwhile has risen to 460,000.
The report details good progress in the assignment of 5G Pioneer bands, albeit still short of the initial 2020 deadline. Recent auctions in Austria, Bulgaria and Latvia have improved the picture.
The 700 MHz band has now been assigned in 25 out of 27 Member States, and at the time of writing the report the 3.6 GHz band had been assigned in 26 out of 27 Member States. However, the 3.6 GHz auction in the Netherlands, which finished on Monday, means the band has now been assigned in all Member States.
The 5G Observatory report is a twice-yearly report on the latest developments towards EU 5G targets and policies, as well as international trends. It can be downloaded here. The interactive scoreboard can be viewed here.
