Amazon Withdraws Telesat Comments, Having Coordinated

Amazon's Kuiper and Telesat wrapped up coordination agreements for their low earth orbit fixed satellite service systems, Amazon told the FCC International Bureau Wednesday. It said they also reached coordination agreements for operation of Telesat's geostationary orbit system, and thus was withdrawing its comments on Telesat's proposed modification of its system. In its comments last month, Amazon urged the bureau to treat the larger first-phase deployment as part of the 2020 processing round and that any grant be conditioned on Telesat getting satisfactory equivalent power flux density findings from the ITU.
