Abstract
In this Report and Order, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) amends its rules to establish a licensing and regulatory framework for space stations in the Digital Broadcast Satellite Service in the 12.2-12.7 GHz and 17.3-17.8 GHz frequency bands that harmonizes the rules regulating DBS with those regulating geostationary-satellite orbit Fixed-Satellite Service systems.
