Frankly, I really don’t think that Dish’s idea of providing 5G mobile service from satellites is a particularly good or beneficial one and granting them 12Ghz spectrum for this purpose is probably not really in the public interest.
Hi Owen, Did I misunderstand? I thought Dish/AT&T's plan was to use 12ghz for -terrestrial- cell phone service, not satellite phone service. Towers on the ground, not in the sky. Towers in the sky are neither new nor controversial. Iridium, for example, was based on the 2G GSM protocols modified for the bandwidth and distances involved.
