MOBILE LTE will become the country’s second satellite operator after the National Broadcasting and Telecommunications Commission’s telecom committee approved a licence for the company Monday.
Thaicom was the first licensed satellite operator in Thailand.
NBTC member Prawit Leesatapornwongsa said Mobile LTE would be granted a 15-year licence to operate both a satellite-transponder leasing service and a satellite-signal uplink/downlink service.
He said the company had to operate in compliance with NBTC rules and would coordinate with the Minister Ministry of Digital Economy and Society to reserve an orbital slot.
