Where is indoor coverage headed?
We’ve surely all experienced it: needing to step outside a building in order to get a mobile connection. Modern construction materials and stricter insulation norms, combined with shorter wave lengths for some of the 5G spectrum, have a negative impact on indoor coverage. But deployment of indoor systems remains complex and costly, limiting widespread adoption. So what’s the current situation, and is there a solution?
Presentations from the event of 13 May 2025

We had a look at what has been happening, starting with BIPT’s updated M-O DAS guidelines and thoughts on the future, as A.S.T.R.I.D. moves to 5G. Then, Brussels Airport Company shared its experience with a single antenna approach: is it a solution? Finally, we discovered how other jurisdictions are approaching indoor coverage, allowing neutral hosting. Could that be the system of the future or do we need to think more about mobile private networks on top of passive systems?
