Abstract

When users of the mobile satellite services (MSS), including the global mobile personal communications service (GMPCS), travel from country to country with their satellite phones, they can expect to encounter varying regulatory requirements in regard to licence fees, customs duties, type approval, etc. The MSS and GMPCS raise a number of important policy and regulatory issues that must be considered and resolved in each country if the international traveller is going to be able to go from country to country and expect to use his or her own terminal. In addition, the emerging new global satellite systems are likely to have many impacts, not all of which are well recognized. This article identifies some of the key issues.
