The DSA welcomes the recent decision by Vietnam's Ministry of Science and Technology and its Authority for Radio Frequency Management (ARFM) to expand access to the lower 6 GHz band for unlicensed use
The Dynamic Spectrum Alliance (DSA) welcomes the recent decision by the Ministry of Science and Technology and the Authority for Radio Frequency Management (ARFM) to expand access to the lower 6 GHz band for unlicensed use, enabling Wireless Access Systems (WAS) such as Radio Local Area Networks (RLAN) and Wi-Fi services. This initiative will expand access to advanced wireless broadband networks and foster technological innovation.

Dynamic Spectrum Alliance Welcomes Ofcom's Consultation on Expanding Access to the 6 GHz Band
The Dynamic Spectrum Alliance (DSA) welcomes Ofcom's recent public consultation on expanding access to the 6 GHz band for commercial mobile and Wi-Fi services. This initiative which proposes to allow the use of low power indoor (LPI) Wi-Fi devices across the upper 6 GHz band and standard power (SP) Wi-Fi devices in the lower part of the band using an Automated Frequency Coordination (AFC) database demonstrates Ofcom’s pragmatic approach to spectrum management as a means to maximize user benefits. DSA endorses Ofcom’s envisaged two-phase approach and the UK's vision to introduce LPI Wi-Fi into the 6425-7125 MHz band as early as possible. We also advocate for the authorization of Very Low Power (VLP) Wi-Fi devices in this band. We appreciate Ofcom's efforts to harness the capability of Wi-Fi to share spectrum with incumbent users of the 6 GHz band while supporting further studies to potentially introduce mobile communication systems in parts of the upper 6 GHz band.
