Iridium Lobbies International Bureau on MSS Spectrum Sharing

Iridium again said expanded spectrum sharing in the big low earth orbit band would be in the public interest. Sharing that spectrum “would not result in harmful interference to Globalstar,” it said in an ex parte filing posted Wednesday in docket 13-213. Iridium petitioned the FCC to designate 1616 MHz-1617.5 MHz for shared use between Iridium and Globalstar (see 1411060018). The filing pertains to a meeting with International Bureau staff, including International Bureau Chief Mindel De La Torre and Satellite Division Chief Jose Albuquerque.
