  • A holistic framework for analyzing spectrum licensing models— illustrated by local licensing for 5G and 6G networks

    Open AccessArturo Basaure, Marja Matinmikko-Blue et al.ARTICLETelecommunications Policy2026

    Building on insights from regulation analysis literature, this research proposes a novel holistic framework for analyzing spectrum licensing models and illustrates it with recent local spectrum licensing models that enable the deployment of local 5G and 6G mobile communications networks. The framework consists of three lenses of analysis: focus areas that cover the process, product, and outcomes of regulation; the licensing elements comprising th…

    Digitalisation and the green transition are driving change to societies at large. These intertwined processes play a key role in the broader topic of sustainable development, which is making its way into different sectors of society. Sustainable development is not only about technology development but involves several business and regulatory decisions that have a fundamental impact on our future society. Information and communication technologies…

  • Legitimacy considerations in regulation for local mobile communication network business in Finland and the UK

    Open AccessOxana Gisca, Marja Matinmikko-Blue et al.ARTICLETelecommunications Policy2024

    The article explores the legitimacy of local 5G and upcoming 6G mobile communication networks in Europe. The paper paves the way for a new perspective for understanding the legitimacy of local 5G/6G mobile communication networks by applying the business model-based ecosystem perspective and legitimacy as a theoretical foundation. As regulations are expanding to consider the novel deployment model of local 5G and 6G mobile communication networks, …

  • Key value indicators

    Open AccessGustav Wikström, Nona Bledow et al.ARTICLETelecommunications Policy2024

    Technology design, development and evaluation has long been driven by functional performance optimization and estimated market opportunities. Today, societal challenges and sustainable development goals are calling for a paradigm shift towards aligning technology development with a values-based consideration and re-prioritization of different ecological, social and economic outcomes. Values have been identified as key drivers of Information and C…

  • Toward an integrated framework for developing European 6G innovation

    Open AccessPetri Ahokangas, Oxana Gisca et al.ARTICLETelecommunications Policy2023

    This article contributes to the discussion on 6G and European policy development, outlining an integrated framework for Europe to benefit from 6G innovation in the future, both as a developer and user of 6G technologies. As 6G is envisioned as a general-purpose technology that can transform the whole of society, there is a need to adopt a broader perspective to innovation compared to earlier technology generations. This proposed framework compris…

  • Regulatory challenges and implications of the European electronic communications code (Eecc) for local mobile communication network business

    Open AccessOxana Gisca, Marja Matinmikko-Blue et al.ARTICLETelecommunications Policy2023

    Regulatory provisions pose legal constraints on deploying mobile communication networks and related services. Local 5G and upcoming 6G networks, particularly those that are independent of the big mobile network operators (MNOs), face new challenges due to the incoherent harmonization and implementation of the regulatory provisions and the standby approach undertaken by many EU member countries. This paper analyses the European Electronic Communic…

  • A deep dive into the birth process of linking 6G and the UN SDGs

    Open AccessKirsi Ojutkangas, Elina Rossi et al.ARTICLETelecommunications Policy2022

    United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (UN SDGs) are becoming an increasingly important theme for researchers in multiple fields to investigate. In this paper, we look at how a group of 40 experts from academia and the mobile communications industry identified ways in which future 6th generation (6G) mobile communications is linked with the UN SDGs while writing a white paper on the topic. In this paper, building on the methodology of criti…

  • Platform configurations for local and private 5G networks in complex industrial multi-stakeholder ecosystems

    Open AccessPetri Ahokangas, Marja Matinmikko-Blue et al.ARTICLETelecommunications Policy2021

    Data and connectivity platforms play a crucial role in the digitalization of different sectors of our society. In complex industrial multi-stakeholder ecosystem contexts connectivity and data platforms are increasingly becoming converged, and private, vertical-specific local 5G networks are emerging. For this context, we depict and analyze alternative configurations for converging connectivity and data platforms and propose appropriate management…
