Recently, the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications of Japan introduced the establishment fee system for specified base stations of mobile communication according to the amendment of the Radio Act(2019) and reviewed the method for evaluating the economic value of frequency in calculating standard fees for the establishment fee system. The purpose of the standard fees is to provide a standard for estimating the economic value of frequencies to assist applicants' predictability and calculating reasonable values for the assignment of frequencies(the establishment fee system for specified base stations). In this paper, contents and implications of the method for setting standard fees proposed in Japan are discussed, and the basic directions for applying the plan for the introduction of the system in Korea are suggested.
