Abstract: Abstract The exponential increase of mobile traffic will continue to be a reality in the next years. To support it, some actions should be taken: the current frequency bands can be refarmed, the number of base stations can be increased, the technologies can evolve etc. Even with all of these, the spectrum in use will not be enough. Therefore, it will be necessary to allocate more spectrum, so the new expected traffic can properly flow. However, the spectrum is a scarce resource. Hence, from a spectrum management point of view, it is not suitable to allocate a huge amount of spectrum without planning. One question arises: how much spectrum is necessary to support all this new traffic that will emerge? This paper answers this question.
