Until August 25, 2020, the document is undergoing an independent anti-corruption examination. In December last year, the State Commission on Radio Frequencies (SCRF) was supposed to consider the use of wireless broadband frequencies to provide universal communication services in rural areas. In particular, the SCRF planned to consider the use of frequencies in the 5.15-5.35 GHz and 5.47-5.65 GHz bands. These frequencies are needed by Rostelecom to implement a project to eliminate the digital divide. In ten years, the operator must conduct trunk fiber-optic lines to all settlements with a population of 250 to 500 people and install collective Wi-Fi access points. Frequency bands in the 5 GHz range would allow Rostelecom to make rural Wi-Fi points more powerful and extend their range.
