SAT-LOA-20190617-00048 E S3050 ViaSat, Inc. Date Filed: 06/17/2019 15:42:23:75600 Launch and Operating Authority ViaSat, Inc. requests to launch and operate VIASAT-3 at 88.9° W.L. in the 19.7-20.2 GHz (space-to-Earth) and 29.5-30 GHz (Earth-to-space) frequency bands under U.S. authority (as VIASAT-89US). VIASAT-3 was previously granted U.S. market access from 88.9° W.L. in these bands, as well as 18.3-19.3 GHz (space-to-Earth) and 28.1-29.1 GHz (Earth-to-space) frequency bands. Under ViaSat's request, the operations of VIASAT-3 at 88.9° W.L. in the 18.3-19.3 GHz and 28.1-29.1 GHz frequency bands, as well as telemetry, tracking and command operations, would remain authorized under the authority of the United Kingdom. SAT-MOD-20190617-00047 E S2917 ViaSat, Inc. Date Filed: 06/17/2019 15:40:21:21600 Modification ViaSat, Inc. seeks a modification to its grant of U.S. market access for VIASAT-3 at the 88.9° W.L. orbital location. Specifically, ViaSat seeks to add the 17.7-18.3 GHz and 19.3-19.7 GHz, (space-to-Earth) and 27.5-28.1 GHz, and 29.1-29.5 GHz (Earth-to-space) frequency bands to its grant of U.S. market access. ViaSat requests waivers of the U.S. Table and the Commission's Ka-band band plan for operations in the 17.7-17.8 GHz, 19.4-19.6 GHz and 29.1-29.25 GHz frequency bands, in which the Commission's rules or band plan do not provide for geostationary fixed-satellite service operations. ViaSat also requests that the Commission extend the milestone for launch and operation of VIASAT-3 until December 31, 2021. In the alternative, ViaSat seeks a waiver of the launch and operation milestone for VIASAT-3.
