Ofcom Says 4 4G Providers Best for Competition
U.K. communications regulator Ofcom is preparing for a major auction of spectrum to support fourth-generation mobile services, and has concluded that there would be a significant risk to national wholesale competition if there were fewer than four national wholesale competitors with credible spectrum portfolios for providing higher quality data services.
To guard against this risk, Ofcom proposes introducing limits both on the minimum and maximum amounts of spectrum bidders can win. These are called auction "floors" and "caps," and will ensure that there are four 4G competitors.
