Global momentum and economic impact of the 1.4/1.5 GHz band (L- band) for IMT

October 2015: The paper finds that the potential economic benefits from IMT (i.e. mobile broadband) services use of 1452-1492 MHz could amount to at least USD40bn globally, based on stated country positions at the time of writing. A further USD9bn could be realised if those Asia Pacific countries not supporting 1452-1492 MHz moved to support use of the band for IMT services.
