DoT allocates BWA spectrum to Qualcomm
The Telecom Ministry is believed to have finally allotted spectrum to U.S.-based Qualcomm for offering wireless broadband services, two years after it won the radio waves through auction. A senior DoT official, however, said Qualcomm would have the right to use this spectrum for 18.6 years only. However, its spectrum was put on hold as the company was locked in a dispute with DoT after the department in September, 2011, rejected its application for Internet Service Provider licence due to late submission. Qualcomm later approached telecom tribunal TDSAT, which ordered DoT to give licence and allocate spectrum to the company.
