| 2024-28390 | NGSO Fixed-Satellite Service (Space-to-Earth) Operations in the 17.3-17.8 GHz Band | Rule | In this document, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC or Commission) adopts rules to permit use of the 17.3-17.7 GHz band by non-geostationary satellite orbit (NGSO) space stations operating in the fixed-satellite service (FSS) in the space-to-Earth (downlink) direction. The Report and Order modifies the United States Table of Frequency Allocations (U.S. Table) to enable NGSO FSS to operate in the 17.3-17.8 GHz band in the downlink direction on a co-primary basis with incumbent services and on a shared, co- primary basis with geostationary satellite orbit (GSO) services. The Report and Order also enables NGSO FSS downlink use of the 17.7-17.8 GHz band on a co-primary basis with GSO services and on an unprotected basis with respect to terrestrial fixed services. The Commission additionally adopts technical requirements to establish safeguards to reduce the likelihood of harmful interference to incumbent operators. The actions taken in the Commission's Report and Order promote spectrum efficiency, foster competition and U.S. leadership, and expand the ability of satellite operators to deploy advanced services, including high-speed internet access to unserved and underserved areas. | 2024-12-05 | 2024 | 12 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2024/12/05/2024-28390/ngso-fixed-satellite-service-space-to-earth-operations-in-the-173-178-ghz-band | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2024-12-05/pdf/2024-28390.pdf | Federal Communications Commission | 161 | In this document, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC or Commission) adopts rules to permit use of the 17.3-17.7 GHz band by non-geostationary satellite orbit (NGSO) space stations operating in the fixed-satellite service (FSS) in the... |
