iStockThe Department of Telecommunications (DoT) has invited participation to study the demand for direct assignment of spectrum to set up captive non-public networks (CNPN).
Willing participants can apply to be part of the exercise between August 10 and September 9, through a module launched on the Saralsanchar portal, DoT said in a notification Wednesday.
The government had issued the ‘Guidelines for Captive Non-Public Network (CNPN) license’ on June 27 which aimed at establishing the legal framework for CNPNs.
Under the said guidelines enterprises seeking to establish CNPN may obtain spectrum on lease from mobile phone companies or directly from DoT. These guidelines also provide that DoT will undertake demand studies for direct assignments of spectrum to enterprises setting up CNPNs.
Enterprises having net-worth more than Rs 100 crore and willing to set up CNPNs by obtaining spectrum directly from DoT are invited to participate in this exercise.
Eligible and willing enterprises are required to submit the details such as ownership, net worth, proposed locations, requirement of spectrum in various bands etc. through the module.
CNPNs can play a key role in developing industries by providing secure, ultra-reliable, low latency and high throughput communication using advanced technologies.
The DoT clarified that participation in this exercise shall not entitle the enterprises any claim for any spectrum assignment.
