(Mic.gov.vn) -
The Ministry of Information and Communications (MIC) will grant licenses for network operators to provide pilot 4G broadband service in Q3 or Q4 at the latest, said a high-ranking official.
Deputy Minister of Information and Communications Phan Tam has recently made the announcement.
Mr. Tam said that the MoIC will allow network operators to use 1800 Mhz waveband which currently serves 2G service for their 4G service.
So far, four network operators, namely VNPT, Viettel, MobiFone and FPT Telecom, have already got licenses for the trial run.
4G promises faster mobile and internet connections than the 3G network.
