up level also applies to the 17.3–17.8 GHz band to protect BSS feeder links in Region 2 from NGSO FSS Earth-to-space transmissions in Regions 1 and 3.
Note to paragraph (k): These limits relate to the uplink EPFD, which would be obtained under free-space propagation conditions, for all conditions and for all methods of modulation.

17. In § 25.217, revise paragraphs
(b)(1) and (c)(1) to read as follows:

Default service rules.

*
*
(b)(1) For all NGSO-like satellite
licenses for which the application was
filed pursuant to the procedures set
forth in § 25.157 after August 27, 2003,
authorizing operations in a frequency
band for which the Commission has not
adopted frequency band-specific service
rules at the time the license is granted,
the licensee will be required to comply
with the following technical
requirements, notwithstanding the
frequency bands specified in these rule
provisions: §§ 25.143(b)(2)(ii), (iii),
25.204(e), 25.210(f), (i).

*
*
(c)(1) For all GSO-like satellite
licenses for which the application was
filed pursuant to the procedures set
forth in § 25.158 after August 27, 2003,
authorizing operations in a frequency
band for which the Commission has not
adopted frequency band-specific service
rules at the time the license is granted,
the licensee will be required to comply
with the following technical
requirements, notwithstanding the
frequency bands specified in these rule
provisions: §§ 25.143(b)(2)(iv),
25.204(e), 25.210(f), (i), (j).

■ 18. Revise § 25.261 to read as follows:
sradovich on DSK3GMQ082PROD with PROPOSALS
§ 25.261 Procedures for avoidance of inline interference among NGSO FSS
systems.
(a) Scope. This section applies to
NGSO FSS satellite systems that
communicate with earth stations with
directional antennas and that operate
under a Commission license or grant of
U.S. market access under this part in the
10.7–12.7 GHz (space-to-Earth), 12.75–
13.25 GHz (Earth-to-space), 13.75–14.5
GHz (Earth-to-space), 17.8–18.6 GHz
(space-to-Earth), 18.8–19.4 GHz (spaceto-Earth), 19.6–20.2 GHz (space-toEarth), 27.5–29.1 GHz (Earth-to-space),
or 29.3–30 GHz (Earth-to-space) bands.
(b) Definition of ‘‘In-line event.’’ For
purposes of this section, an ‘‘in-line
event’’ associated with a specific
frequency range occurs when there is
VerDate Sep<11>2014

Jkt 241001
physical alignment of space stations of
two or more NGSO FSS satellite systems
authorized to use this frequency range
with an operating earth station of one of
these systems such that the angular
separation between operational links of
the satellite systems is less than 10° as
measured at the earth station.
(c) Default procedure. Unless
otherwise coordinated pursuant to
paragraph (d) of this section, NGSO FSS
satellite operators experiencing an inline event must divide their commonly
assigned spectrum in accordance with
the following procedure:
(1) Each of n (number of) satellite
systems involved in a particular in-line
event must select 1/n of the commonly
assigned frequency range for its ‘‘home’’
spectrum. The selection order for each
satellite system will be determined by
the date that the first space station in the
satellite system commences operation.
(2) The affected space station(s) of the
respective satellite systems must operate
only in the selected (1/n) spectrum
associated with its satellite system, its
home spectrum, for the duration of the
in-line event.
(3) All affected space station(s) may
resume operations throughout the
frequency range associated with the inline event once the angular separation
between the space stations exceeds 10°.
(d) Coordination procedure. Any
coordination procedure agreed among
the affected operating satellite systems,
which allows operations of the satellite
systems when each system’s respective
space stations are within the 10 degree
avoidance angle associated with an inline event, will supersede the default
procedure of paragraph (c) of this
section. All parties must coordinate in
good faith.
■ 19. Revise § 25.271(e) to read as
follows:
§ 25.271
Control of transmitting stations.

(e) The licensee or market access
recipient for an NGSO FSS satellite
system operating in the 10.7–14.5 GHz,
17.8–18.6 GHz, 18.8–19.4 GHz, 19.6–
20.2 GHz, 27.5–29.1 GHz, or 29.3–30
GHz bands must maintain an electronic
Web site bulletin board to list the
satellite ephemeris data for each

satellite in the constellation, using the

Command (NORAD) two-line orbital
element format. The orbital elements
must be updated at least once every
three days.
