4G LTE network gears up for fight

Mar 14, 2012 11:11 pm
Scott Moritz of Bloomberg News (via the Denver Post) reports that LightSquared, a company developing a nationwide 4G LTE wireless broadband network, hired litigators Theodore Olson and Eugene Scalia of Gibson Dunn & Crutcher to fight the Federal Communications Commission. Olson is the former U.S. solicitor general under President George Bush (43). "Tests found that the company's proposed ground-based network would interfere with navigation equipment, including gear used by aircraft, according to the National Telecommunications and Information Administration, a Commerce Department arm that helps oversee use of airwaves advising the FCC," Moritz reports for Bloomberg. "Their decision to not allow us to go forward isn't supported by the law or technical policy. We are confident about that and we are eager to prove our case," Jeff Carlisle, LightSquared's executive vice president of regulatory affairs and public policy told the reporter.
