    The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has issued a rule clarifying how spectrum sharing will work between different generations of non-geostationary satellite orbit (NGSO) fixed-satellite service (FSS) systems. The rule sets specific technical criteria, including a limit on interference to earlier established satellite systems to promote effective coordination and protect network operations. A transitional protection period of ten years is specified, after which later systems must share spectrum equally with earlier systems. These measures aim to ensure efficient use of satellite spectrum and facilitate a competitive environment for new satellite entries.
