The European Parliament has released the report "European Leadership in 5G" which examines the concept of 5G, how it might fit in to the future telecommunications landscape, the state of play in Research and Development in the EU, the possible business models and the role of standards and spectrum policy, to assess the EU’s strategic position.
After analyzing these matters, the report's authors made a number of recommendations, in particular, more precise definition of goals and scope for a 5G industrial policy, as well as a spectrum policy for 5G based on spectrum sharing.
