SpaceX Meets With FCC International Bureau About Constellation Plans

SpaceX's planned satellite design would meet or exceed all FCC requirements for orbital debris mitigation and collision avoidance, company officials told International Bureau staffers, said a posting Monday. The satellite operator said interference red flags by OneWeb were disingenuous since SpaceX's criticized methodology is the same OneWeb has used in the past. OneWeb didn't comment Tuesday. SpaceX is seeking approval for amending Ku- and Ka-band mega constellation plans so it could have 1,584 satellites orbit at 550 kilometers instead of higher (see 1811090002).
