Not assuming much...but for such wide-band channels (up to 2GHz) either a "dramatic" reorg of current radio spectrum is needed likely through "harmonisation" - normalization of standards or a new tech is needed to go into an unused spectrum (hence a push to ~60GHz).
I just wonder how a "dramatic overhaul and harmonisation" could look like in practice for 5G?
There seem to be no place to put even a single 500MHz channel anywhere below 6GHz, yet alone a 2GHz one?
Re-purpose current GSM and CDMA, etc. bands (take back the licenses and combine bands)?
Have single carrier become "MAC" provider and others use it (something akin to "ma-Bell & ATT&T" arrangement)?
Or what?
