Consultation on the new licensing framework for satellite services

ICASA has released the findings on the Consultation on the new licensing framework for satellite services. "The primary objectives of this inquiry were to develop a regulatory framework that ensures equitable access to spectrum, promotes competition, and supports the deployment of next-generation satellite technologies, while addressing the unique challenges of the South African context, such as the need to protect terrestrial services from Harmful Interference, the management of spectrum resources in higher frequency bands, and the facilitation of international coordination for satellite operations."
