Mr Somchai (centre left) presents the payment of the first instalment of 1.88 billion baht for the 700MHz band to the NBTC.
Advanced Info Service (AIS), the country’s largest mobile operator by subscribers, expects its 5G subscriber base will reach 1 million by the end of this year, thanks to the rise of 5G-enabled smartphones and 5G network roll-out nationwide.
The company had around 100,000 subscribers to its 5G services as of the end of last year, while data consumption is expected to surge by 20-30% this year.
AIS chief executive Somchai Lertsutiwong said the company has the largest spectrum portfolio in the market both in terms of the variety of frequency bands and bandwidth.
