The FCC intends the rules\u00a0 to mitigate ground-path interference between the Digital Broadcasting Satellite Service and the Broadcasting Satellite Service in the 17.3\u201317.8 GHz band.\u00a0 For the FCC, this allows it to create an effective date for its new rules.\u00a0 The FCC adopts:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<div>new rules to mitigate interference from DBS feeder-link earth stations to BSS consumer earth terminals (ground path interference) in the 17.3\u201317.8 GHz band.\u00a0 We adopt a rule allowing currently-licensed DBS feeder link earth stations to continue operations under the terms of their current licenses, and to expand their facilities provided that new antennas are constructed within one kilometer of current antennas and the aggregate power-flux density of the station at any point does not increase.\u00a0 We adopt a methodology for new DBS feeder-link earth stations, and require applicants for new DBS feeder-link earth stations to coordinate with BSS licensees to achieve agreement on interference mitigation. We adopt rules specifying the information applicants for new DBS feeder-link earth stations must provide for the purposes of coordination.<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>The full report and order is available <a href=\"https:\/\/apps.fcc.gov\/edocs_public\/attachmatch\/FCC-17-49A1.pdf\"><strong>here<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n<div><strong>Effective Date<\/strong>:\u00a0 September 7, 2017<\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On August 8, 2017, the Federal Communications Commission published in the Federal Register a summary of a Third Report and&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-661","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.9 -
