| Albania | Yes | 04-10-2010 | Implemented through reference in the National Frequency Allocation Table, Government Decision Nr.479, Dt. 06.05.2009 | ||
| Andorra | No info | ||||
| Austria | Yes Partly | 13-03-2013 | In Austria the decision can only be implemented partly. The frequency band 28.8365-28.9485 GHz is designated to FS and currently licensed to Mobile Operators. After the termination of the valid licences (according to decides 2) and depending on the future need in the Mobile backhaul market, Austria will decide on the future application of the band 28.8365-28.9485 GHz for FS or FSS, taking into account the most beneficial usage | ||
