ERicsson 2 V April 16, 2001 RECEIVED Ms. Magalie Roman Salas Secretary MAY 1 5 2001 Federal Communications Commission §6 The Portals 445 Twelfth Street, SW ECC MA ROO# Washington, D.C. 20554 Re: Motient Services Inc. and Mobile Satellite Ventures Subsidiary LLC Application for Assignment of Licenses and For Authority to Launch and Operate a Next— Generation Mobile Satellite Service System: Lead File No. SAT—ASG—20010302— 00017 Dear Ms. Roman Salas: Pursuant to Public Notice dated March 19, 2001, please accept these comments on the above— captioned application of Motient Services Inc. ("Motient") and Mobile Satellite Ventures Subsidiary LLC ("MSV Sub") filed on March 2, 2001. The system proposed by Motient and MSV Sub is innovative and interesting. A valuable resource such as spectrum should be used to its maximum potential. A new state—of—the art Satellite System (as proposed by Motient & MSV Sub) with hundreds of spot beams over the US, would re—use the available L—band spectrum many times over while serving lots of disadvantaged users simultaneously. Further, re—use of the same L—band spectrum terrestrially, within high— density urban centers where satellite connectivity is generally not needed, is a good idea but should be implemented very carefully by the satellite operator to avoid harmful interference to GPS. It has, from the start, been our point of view that cellular systems gradually should give coverage everywhere, not only in densely populated areas. We don‘t see that cellular will do this in the foreseeable future. We have also seen the pure satellite systems are not viable. For that reason we think that if all of the USA shall be covered by cellular service, systems like this should be carefully considered. The satellite antennas should be such that really small, low cost cellular phones can be used. That has not been the case with previous satellite systems.
