>Additionally, almost no two countries actually have overlapping 5G bands

What does that mean? The 5G NR in the future will be reformed from the current LTE, and aren't we all set for mmWave AND 3.x Ghz Spectrum for 5G? I think that is what the majority of EU, South Korea, Taiwan and China are doing. I am pretty sure that is what US and Canada are doing as well.

Even the sub-6GHz spectrum allocations in various countries don't overlap that much. But yeah, the 3-6 GHz spectrum is going to be the biggest game changer since it will actually propagate okay and doesn't have the phase noise problems of very high frequencies. https://www.microwavejournal.com/articles/31757-global-5g-ru...
