SpaceX与投资公司Grain Management达成协议,购买最多14兆赫的800MHz低频段频谱许可证1。这批频谱将用于支撑SpaceX规划中的地面移动网络,与其基于卫星的Starlink移动服务相辅相成1。
该频谱原为T-Mobile所有,是后者在2020年收购Sprint时获得的资产1。根据美国政府对该并购交易的监管条件,T-Mobile被要求出售这部分频谱1。同周,SpaceX获得美国监管部门批准发射15000颗卫星,用于升级版移动服务1。SpaceX表示:"这个优质低频段频谱解决了关键技术缺口,将为Starlink Mobile成为美国主要移动运营商铺平道路"1。
SpaceX has acquired up to 14 megahertz of 800MHz low-band spectrum licenses from investment firm Grain Management to support its planned terrestrial mobile network, which will complement the company's space-based Starlink mobile service 1. The spectrum being purchased originally belonged to T-Mobile, which obtained it during its 2020 acquisition of Sprint and was required to divest the licenses under conditions imposed by the U.S. government on the merger 1.
The spectrum acquisition comes as SpaceX received U.S. approval this week to launch 15,000 satellites for an upgraded version of its mobile service 1. According to SpaceX, this premium low-band spectrum resolves a critical technical gap and will pave the way for Starlink Mobile to become a major mobile carrier in the United States 1.
