SpaceX claims Starlink Mobile will be better than AT&T, T-Mobile, and Verizon
摘要
SpaceX表示,其Starlink Mobile服务计划与三大传统无线运营商直接竞争,并争取大量用户。目前SpaceX主要与运营商合作,通过卫星补充地面网络盲区,但公司已购买EchoStar频谱许可,计划建设地面组件,提供独立移动服务。SpaceX总裁Gwynne Shotwell在财报电话会上确认,将部署卫星与地面硬件系统,打造真正的移动服务。
SpaceX says it has a plan for Starlink Mobile to compete against the big three wireless carriers and take a large number of customers away from them.
SpaceX has so far partnered with traditional mobile carriers to supplement their ground-based networks with Starlink satellite capacity, mainly to ensure coverage from space in dead zones not reached by cell towers. But SpaceX is buying spectrum licenses that would let it offer its own terrestrial service to compete directly against the big carriers, and the firm's top executives said in yesterday's earnings call they plan to do just that.
"The spectrum that we purchased from EchoStar does have terrestrial components, so we definitely intend to build out the terrestrial component," SpaceX President Gwynne Shotwell said in response to questions on the earnings call. "So you will have not only the capacity from the satellites themselves, but you will have a buildout of the terrestrial, basically the hardware and systems necessary to make a true mobile service exactly what you want it to be."
