Unlike fixed spectrum allocation \u2014 where a portion is locked for either 4G or 5G \u2014 DSS can dynamically adjust to traffic conditions. For instance, if 5G demand surges in a specific area, the full spectrum can be shifted to 5G. If 4G usage later increases, DSS reallocates accordingly, ensuring both technologies perform at optimal levels.<\/p>\n<p>As of the end of the first quarter of 2025, True served over 14.2 million 5G users across Thailand. The company\u2019s Network Modernization Plan, under which DSS is being deployed, aims to further improve speed, coverage, and service stability for both TrueMove H and dtac customers.<\/p>\n<p>True\u2019s spectrum strategy has also been strengthened by its recent acquisition of 70 megahertz in the 2.3 GHz band. This mid-band spectrum will be used to support 4G services, freeing up more of the 2.6 GHz band for the provision of 5G services.<\/p>\n<p>True noted that it decided to start the deployment in Thonglor as it is a vibrant urban hub known for its mix of lifestyle, business, and residential activity. It is particularly popular among professionals, business leaders, and expatriates \u2014 making it an ideal testbed for premium 5G service, according to the telco.<\/p>\n<p>Group CEO Sigve Brekke, along with True\u2019s network engineering team, conducted an on-site inspection in Thonglor to review the DSS implementation.<\/p>\n<p>In 2023, Thai carriers Total Access Communication (Dtac) and True Corp had <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rcrwireless.com\/20230302\/5g\/thai-telcos-true-corp-dtac-complete-merger-process\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">completed their merger.<\/a> Nordic operator Telenor, which partially owns Dtac, said that the transaction was the largest telco merger in Southeast Asia by combined enterprise value.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"True noted that the launch of DSS marks the start of a nationwide expansion of high-performance 5G and&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":108645,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[17],"tags":[611,158,67,132,68],"class_list":{"0":"post-108644","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-mobile","8":"tag-mobile","9":"tag-technology","10":"tag-united-states","11":"tag-unitedstates","12":"tag-us"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@us\/114950182228150330","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/108644","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=108644"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/108644\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/108645"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=108644"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=108644"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=108644"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
