Ofcom is the regulator for the communications services that we use and rely on each day . We make sure people get the best from their broadband, home phone and mobile services, as well as keeping an eye on TV and radio.

According to Ofcom, that represent an approximately 22% increase in the amount of spectrum currently available in the U.K. for mobile use. Specifically, there will be six 2×5 MHz blocks (60 MHz total) in the 700 MHz band available, as well as four blocks of 5 MHz in downlink-only spectrum .
