Set at a low but non-trivial level
to deter collusion and trivial bids,
but not so high as to deter bidders
or leave spectrum unsold.

encourage entry in the auction
Reserve price will be published
and this meets the transparency
objective.
Lower prices encourage entry
and help ensure all spectrum is
sold
Price should not be set too high
otherwise spectrum may be
unsold and revenues may be
reduced.

The average value for all 1800/1900 MHz data points is THB
10.51/MHz/pop (spot) and THB 7.25/MHz/pop (PPP). Like the
850/900MHz band, there is considerable variation in the data as
indicated by the standard deviation and the 95% confidence
intervals. Overall the 1800/1900 MHz bands are around 40-50%
lowers than the 850/900 MHz. Again, the Asia Pacific values are
higher as they mainly consist of awards for high income
countries. For lower income countries the average values are
much lower - around THB 6/MHz/pop.
Figure 3 shows the average values of the 1800/1900 MHz
awards for the different sub-sets of data points. The relative
values among the three groups are similar to the 850/900 MHz
benchmarks with Asia Pacific awards having the highest average
value compared to lower income groupings.
