Azerbaijani operators allowed to use frequencies to deploy LTE network

All three GSM operators in Azerbaijan are permitted to use necessary frequencies for the deployment of the network LTE (Long Term Evolution), head of the regulation department of the Azerbaijani Communications and IT Ministry Aliyar Tamirov said at a press conference on the presentation of the Azercell Telekom 4G network.

He said it allows all three players of the mobile market of Azerbaijan to start rendering services in the fourth generation (4G) standard.

"Last year, after 3G licenses have been issued to operators, the Ministry took a decision and announced about a need to take measures to deploy the 4G network. Thanks to this decision it was decided to allow all three operators to use appropriate frequency for the deployment of the LTE network," Tamirov said.

At present, the country has three operators of mobile services rendering services in the 3G standard - Azercell, Bakcell and Azerfon.
