The decision was taken on Tuesday at a meeting of a committee formed last month to formulate a guideline for rolling out 5G, said Senior Assistant Director of BTRC Zakir Hossain Khan.
The telecom regulator formed the committee comprising representatives from ministry, regulator and operators last month in order to formulate policy, frequency, frequency prices, timeframe of implementation etc.
The 5G service will change the digital environment which will lead to deploying state-of-the-art technology.
