Jio Urges TRAI to Include L and S Bands for Satellite D2D Services in Spectrum Auction

Jio, a big phone company, wants the government to let them buy special airwaves, called spectrum, that can be used for talking to phones directly from satellites.

They say these airwaves, in the L and S bands, are important for the future of phone internet and connecting even in places far away from normal cell towers.

They also say that other big companies around the world are already using these kinds of airwaves to send signals from space to phones.

Jio believes that if they can get these airwaves through the regular auction, it will help make their phone networks better and ready for new technology called 6G.

Additionally, Jio is asking the government to test how regular phone signals and satellite signals can work together safely in the 6 GHz airwave band before they sell it off, so they don't cause problems for each other.
