Voices From Space
Podcast Episode 24: Jul 4, 2018
Tom Stroup, President, Satellite Industry Association
What is 5G? We are experiencing a change in how 5G is defined to include the growing role of satellites. They are positioned to be an important 5G player with communications on the move, services to rural areas, backhaul, and trunking network capabilities. However, the wireless industry is demanding additional RF spectrum for 5G and a change in rules may allow them to take it from the satellite industry.

Tom Stroup, President of the Satellite Industry Association, discusses the need for caution and certainty when making decisions about rule changes and why there should be a balanced approach.
