In a groundbreaking move, LPTV Broadcasters Association member HC2, a major U.S. broadcaster operating over 250 stations, has filed a petition with the FCC, the US government communications regulating authority, to recognize 5G Broadcast as an official TV broadcast standard. If approved, this will mark the first commercial licensing of 5G Broadcast anywhere in the world! This development could propel the U.S. to the forefront of next-generation broadcasting, setting a benchmark for other markets to follow.
