£180m To Fund TV Interference Solutions
The UK government has committed £180 million to fund solutions to TV interference caused by 4G.
Mobile operators bidding to acquire spectrum will have to pay into the multi- million pound fund .
Communications Minister Ed Vaizey told the Daily Telegragh that this fund will eventually be used to ensure disabled and elderly households don’t suffer TV signal interference when 4G networks arrive in the UK.
This news follows a warning last June that said the introduction of 4G technologies into the UK’s airwaves may interfere with digital TV signals. This is because the 800MHz spectrum is adjacent to the frequencies used for digital terrestrial television (DTT) broadcasting.
