CRA, Communications Regulatory Authority has provided a policy for implementing Private Mobile Networks Using 5G Technology. The two public mobile operators in Qatar (Ooredoo Qatar Q.P.S.C. and Vodafone Qatar P.Q.S.C.) offer 5G networks and services which CRA recommends for use by Enterprises (businesses as well as government organizations). However, if an Enterprise intends to establish and operate its own 5G private mobile network, and wishes to obtain a spectrum license from CRA, CRA will review such cases on an exceptional basis. The spectrum license application must include a set of specific requirements, which are outlined in the policy document. Document can be downloaded here: President Decision and Policy Statement |
