    <p>Read: cheap phones have noisy receivers or crappy antennas,
      right?</p>
    <p>The macro cell effect you describe is well known here - I
      typically teach this in class to my students here in Auckland.
      Many of them live in the CBD, where there's a 5G mast at every
      corner, so their batteries last forever. I then ask them whether
      they've ever driven down to Wellington (700 km or so through some
      fairly wap-wappy stretches of road) and quite a few hands go up. I
      then ask them whether anyone noticed that their phone battery went
      flat on the trip and most of the same hands go up. In fact, I
      suspect that the Wellington branch of a major parallel import
      discounter here does half of its business with folk who've driven
      down and think their battery is broken and they need a new phone.<br>

                      of Low-Earth Orbit (LEO) satellites in the

                      terrestrial networks, and the implications for

                      face, and how these technologies will likely shape
                      the telecommunications industry's future. It aims
                      to provide inspiration and insights that can be

                      reading recent media and comments on various media
                      postings, one can quickly get the impression that
                      satellites will replace traditional mobile
                      networks. This narrative often simplifies a
                      complex issue, creating the perception that
                      satellite technology is a universal solution to
                      global connectivity challenges. However, a more
                      pragmatic view reveals that satellite networks
                      like those operated by Starlink offer
                      revolutionary opportunities but are unlikely to
                      make terrestrial mobile networks obsolete.
                      Instead, these technologies will coexist, each
                      serving distinct roles in the communication
                      ecosystem.</span></p>

                  <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif;">There are
                      many mobile telecom operators which fear that low
                      earth orbit (LEO) satellite networks like Starlink
                      and others could impact their business in a
                      negative way like over the top (OTT) providers.
                      Indeed, there is a concern about traffic and
                      revenue moving away from mobile networks to
                      providers which do not have the same regulatory
                      obligations or cost structure. For example, in
                      some countries, some LEO satellite providers do
                      not pay for the use of radio spectrum. These are
                      important issues to examine in their short, medium

                      </em>describes the inherent challenge to deliver
                      return on investment in remote areas with limited
                      population and in the face of growing traffic from
                      outside providers which contribute zero
                      financially to the local economy. LEO satellites
                      may be a double-edged sword in that they may
                      provide connectivity in an emergency, but they do
                      not conform to local regulatory requirements, nor

                        capabilities</a>. SpaceX's spectrum regulatory
                      approach outside the U.S. has been criticized for
                      not always adhering to local licensing frameworks
                      (e.g., cases in India, France, and South Africa).
                      Its reliance on spectrum that local regulators
                      have not officially granted can create tensions
                      with governments and local telecom providers.
                      Starlink operates a global satellite network with
                      thousands of satellites covering areas without
                      always having lawful access to the spectrum on
                      which it provides services. </span></p>
                  <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif;"> </span></p>
                  <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif;">This is an
                      even more significant challenge regarding the
                      regular cellular spectrum used for traditional
                      mobile cellular services licensed and used by
                      local telecommunication companies. Thus, it
                      requires, at least, the satellite operator to
                      collaborate locally with telco operators who have
                      the usage rights of the cellular spectrum of
                      interest. Despite these challenges, Starlink’s
                      aggressive strategy and innovative technology have
                      placed it light years ahead of competitors like <a href="https://docs.fcc.gov/public/attachments/DA-23-114A1.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener" moz-do-not-send="true">Amazon’s Kuiper</a> and

                  <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif;">One of the

                      its ability to build a functional global network
                      without initial access to the necessary spectrum.
                      This bold approach has drawn comparisons to Jeff
                      Bezos’ Kuiper project, with Strand Consult
