التغطية في اليابان

ماذا تعني أرقام اليابان

هناك رقمان مهمان، وواحد فقط منهما هو ما يقتبسه الجميع. السرعة المعتادة، 74 ميغابت/ث، تخبرك كيف تبدو اللحظة الجيدة.

المئين العاشر، 21 ميغابت/ث، هو الرقم الذي يستحق القراءة. إنه السرعة في أسوأ عُشر من اليوم، حين تمتلئ الخلية فوق المحطة ويكون كل من حولك عليها. بلد بوسيط عالٍ وقاع منخفض هو بلد يعمل بشكل رائع حتى اللحظة التي تحتاجه فيها فعلاً.

إذا كانت رحلتك تعتمد على مكالمات الفيديو أو مشاركة الاتصال، فخطط على أساس رقم وقت الازدحام لا السرعة المعتادة.

ما يحدث في اليابان حين تزدحم الشبكة

الازدحام ليس عطلاً، بل مساء ثلاثاء. السؤال هو ماذا تستطيع شريحتك الإلكترونية أن تفعل حياله، والجواب لدى معظم شرائح السفر هو: لا شيء. اتفاق جملة واحد لكل بلد، وشبكة واحدة، ولا مخرج سوى شراء شريحة ثانية من جهة أخرى وأنت واقف في الشارع.

هنا يمر تدفق Orbislo عبر KDDI وSoftBank. حين تتدهور الشبكة التي أنت عليها ننقلك إلى أخرى، في منتصف رحلتك، دون أن تطلب، ونخبرك بعدها بدل أن نقاطعك في اللحظة.

مشغلو الهاتف المحمول في اليابان

• NTT Docomo: NTT Docomo held 32.9 percent of Japan's mobile contracts at the end of March 2026 on the ministry's count, rising to 39.5 percent once lines it supplies wholesale to virtual operators are included, making it the largest of the four licensed networks.
• KDDI: The KDDI group held 26.2 percent of mobile contracts at the end of March 2026, or 31.4 percent including the lines it supplies to virtual operators.
• SoftBank: SoftBank held 18.7 percent of Japan's mobile contracts at the end of March 2026, or 24.6 percent including the lines it supplies to virtual operators, according to the communications ministry's quarterly figures.
• Rakuten Mobile: Rakuten Mobile held 3.6 percent of mobile contracts as a network operator at the end of March 2026. Virtual operators running on the other networks together held 18.5 percent.
• Rakuten Mobile, 700 MHz: In October 2023 the ministry approved Rakuten Mobile's plan to build base stations in the 770 to 773 MHz block. Rakuten was the only applicant for that 700 MHz band spectrum, which was assigned with conditions attached.

الشبكات القديمة في اليابان

• KDDI and Okinawa Cellular switched off au's 3G service, CDMA 1X WIN, on 31 March 2022, after running it since November 2003. From 1 April 2022 au handsets that could not make VoLTE calls stopped working.
• SoftBank ended its 3G service on 15 April 2024, having postponed the January date after the Noto Peninsula earthquake. Customers living in Ishikawa Prefecture kept 3G inside that prefecture until 31 July 2024.
• NTT Docomo closed its FOMA 3G network and the i-mode service on 31 March 2026. Since then a phone that cannot make VoLTE calls, or has VoLTE switched off in its settings, cannot make voice calls on Docomo at all.

شبكة 5G في اليابان

• In April 2019 Japan assigned its first 5G spectrum to four operators: NTT Docomo and KDDI with Okinawa Cellular received two 100 MHz blocks each between 3.6 and 4.6 GHz, SoftBank and Rakuten Mobile one each, and every operator also received a 400 MHz block between 27.0 and 29.5 GHz.
• In December 2024 the ministry approved SoftBank's plan for the 4.9 to 5.0 GHz band, the only application it received, adding a further 100 MHz of 5G spectrum to SoftBank's network.
• At the end of March 2025, 5G reached 98.4 percent of Japan's population when the four operators' coverage is combined, and between 88.4 and 99.9 percent in each prefecture. The government's target is 99 percent nationally and in every prefecture by March 2031.
• By the end of March 2026 Japan counted 126.32 million 5G contracts, up 12.7 percent in a year, against 108.85 million 4G contracts, so 5G lines now outnumber 4G ones.

ملاحظات عن الشبكة في اليابان

• Since 1 April 2026 the four network operators run JAPAN Roaming: when a disaster or major outage knocks out one network, its customers can switch to another at up to 300 kbps, or in some cases make emergency calls only. The phone shows a network name such as JPN-ROAM D, K, S or R.
• JAPAN Roaming is switched on only for large scale disasters or major network failures, not for everyday or small outages. Smartphones from roughly the spring 2026 models onward are expected to support it, and some older models gain support through software updates.
• The January 2024 Noto Peninsula earthquake took up to 839 mobile base stations off air across the four networks, 799 of them in Ishikawa Prefecture, as power cuts and severed transmission lines spread. KDDI, SoftBank and Rakuten Mobile finished emergency restoration on 15 January and Docomo on 17 January, except where landslides blocked access.
