This Spectrum Orientation Plan describes the current and planned use of different frequency bands in Sweden. The Plan also describes anticipated changes and licensing method. According to the principles of technology and service neutrality other uses are possible in most bands. The plan should be seen as an orientation and an overview, rather than an exhaustive list. It is non-binding and can and will change over time without notice.
