NGSOs' ITU EPFD Calculations Should Be Open: SES/O3b

Mega constellations like SpaceX and Amazon's Kuiper raise a common issue of how the FCC can enforce equivalent power flux density (EPFD) limits on non-geostationary orbit systems when the NGSO is using multiple ITU filings, SES/O3b told the International Bureau Monday. To protect geostationary orbit operations, it recommended requiring NGSO systems divulge their EPFD calculation results from ITU's validation system and the data needed to verify those results.
