The telco which has been planning to rollout 4G LTE services for quite some time now, but was constrained due to the available spectrum of 5MHz not being adequate for both 2G voice and 4G data. The telco also explored possibilities of rolling of narrowband 4G LTE earlier, the technology which however could not evolve due to its own limitations.
Post announcement of the much awaited Spectrum sharing policy, the telco plans to pool its spectrum with a partner operator. The plan here being to allocate 5Mhz for 4G data and 5Mhz for 2G voice or upgrade their Network to 4G, and shift 2G voice on one of the existing players.
This way both Videocon Telecom and the partner operator will be able to offer both 4G and 2G services on each other's Network and optimally utilise the available spectrum, at the same time, ensuring and enhancing QoS.
Speaking on the announcement of spectrum sharing, Mr. Arvind Bali, Director & CEO, Videocon Telecommunications Ltd. said, " We welcome the much awaited and most sought after spectrum sharing policy . I think the policy shall definitely help in optimum utilization of the most scarce resource. This will not only help improve quality of service, reduce call drops but also further accelerate rollout of new technologies in the country. We will be actively participating in the opportunity. As we speak, we are crystallizing our plan on spectrum sharing and will definitely be inking spectrum-sharing pacts with other telcos."
