Broadcast regulator Ofcom has announced it will transfer some of the radio bandwidth allocated to digital TV to mobile data carriers to meet the growing demand for data. Frequencies in the 700 MHz band such as Freeview, and wireless microphones, will be segmented off for mobile data. Ofcom claimed demand for mobile data in the UK could be 45 times higher by 2030.
