Gired, the group linked to Brazil’s regulator Anatel and which is in charge of the digitization of TV channels in the country, approved the last study on the release of the 700MHz band for 4G services.
The approval was in the region of Santa Cruz do Sul, Rio Grande do Sul state.
Now, all main municipalities across Brazil have technical viability for operations in the band.
By the end of 2018, 130mn people in Brazil lived in cities served exclusively by digital TV, following the analog signal switch-off.
