SpaceX has acquired a portfolio of low-band spectrum licenses, which the company states will enable its Starlink Mobile service to evolve into a major mobile carrier in the US. This development is contingent on approval from the Federal Communications Commission. SpaceX intends to deploy a new architecture that integrates its satellite-to-mobile constellation with terrestrial networks.
