Inkampani yesathelayithi yezokuxhumana eyonakele i-OneWeb ithole ukwesekwa yi-US Federal Communications Commission (FCC) ukuze yethule amanye amasathelayithi angu-1280 ngenkonzo yayo ye-inthanethi yesikhathi esizayo.
I-OneWeb isivele ithole imvume ku-FCC ngoJuni 2017 ukwethula umlaza wamasathelayithi angama-720. Amasathelayithi okuqala angama-720, i-OneWeb yethule kuwo ama-74, azoba ku-Earth orbit ephansi endaweni ephakeme ye-1200 km. Kwamanye amasathelayithi angu-1280, kwatholwa imvume yokusebenza endaweni ezungeza umhlaba ophakathi nendawo endaweni ephakeme eyi-8500 km. Lokhu kungaphansi kakhulu kwemigqa ye-geostationary engu-35 km esetshenziselwa amanethiwekhi esathelayithi e-broadband evamile. Ukusetshenziswa kwemizila ephansi ye-geostationary kunciphisa ukubambezeleka kwesignali ukuze uthole ukuxhumana okulula nabasebenzisi be-inthanethi.
NgoMeyi 2020, i-OneWeb yathumela esinye isicelo sokwethula amasathelayithi angama-47 endaweni ephakeme ye-844 km, kodwa akucaci ukuthi kuzothatha isikhathi esingakanani ukuthola imvume ye-FCC. Isicelo se-OneWeb sokwethula amasathelayithi ayi-1200 besilokhu silinde ukubuyekezwa ngokomthetho isikhathi esingaphezu kweminyaka emithathu. Ngaleso sikhathi, i-FCC yashintsha imithetho ye-satellite broadband izikhathi eziningana, okuhlanganisa nokwethulwa kwemithetho emisha yokulayisensa ngo-Ephreli 1280 kwelinye lamabhendi e-spectrum i-OneWeb egcine iwatholile imvume.
Njengoba i-OneWeb izinze e-London, izodinga futhi imvume yokulawula yase-UK. Uhulumeni wase-UK uyingxenye ye-consortium, endalini ye-OneWeb ngenyanga edlule eNew York.
