SpaceX Has a Plan for Starlink to Hit Gigabit Speeds
SMRTR summary
SpaceX seeks FCC approval for Starlink satellite system changes to potentially enable gigabit-speed broadband. The company proposes lowering satellite altitudes, adjusting elevation angles, and increasing spectrum flexibility. These modifications aim to improve performance, sustainability, and spectrum sharing, potentially increasing bandwidth tenfold and reducing latency. However, the FCC has been skeptical of Starlink's speed claims, and other companies may object to the changes.
