Episode Synopsis "ep.3: 5G, Ligado Case, and National Defense"

今年四月下旬,美國聯邦通訊委員會 FCC作出裁定,一致通過核准美國衛星通訊公司 Ligado Networks 部署 5G 設備,但旋即受到美國參眾議院以及各部會抗議,宣稱此舉會嚴重干擾到 GPS 的使用,構成國防和飛航安全的疑慮。Ligado 案將會關乎到美國今後幾年的科技革命和國防,是目前國防業最重要的爭議。 The Federal Communications Commission (FCC)'s approval of Ligado Network's proposal to deploy 5G network in L-band spectrum has been met with fierce opposition from members of the both Senate and the House, as well as various departments across the US Government, most notably the DoD. The opposition cites possible GPS interference as a major risk of Ligado's plan. The final fate of the Ligado case will set the course for 5G revolution in national defense and in US at large.
