partnered with Amazon\u2019s Kuiper satellite project<\/a>. However, it seems to be focused on providing service to remote cell towers where it wouldn\u2019t be practical to run fiber or cable. <\/p>\nSince satellite networks typically work worldwide, Apple may have to strike deals with international carriers and potentially governments, as well.<\/p>\n
Harold Feld, an analyst at Public Knowledge, doesn\u2019t necessarily think carriers will see this as a conflict of interest, though, given how different the tech is and how far in the future things like T-Mobile\u2019s \u201cCoverage Above and Beyond\u201d may be \u2014 the company says testing is slated to start by the end of next year. \u201cThere\u2019s no reason from the carrier perspective why this should be a problem unless they have some kind of exclusive deal with SpaceX not to use any other satellite service,\u201d he said. He noted, however, \u201cit\u2019s kind of hard to know without knowing the business arrangements.\u201d <\/p>\n\n<\/aside>\nGiven Kuo and others\u2019 predictions that Apple is working with a company that already has its own satellite communications network, it seems unlikely that this is a situation where Apple would need technology or spectrum rights from the carriers. However, during its presentation, T-Mobile said it would have to work with messaging app developers to make their systems compatible with its satellite tech \u2014 if Apple wants to use the carrier\u2019s SMS and voice systems in its satellite communications feature, it may be a similar situation.<\/p>\n
Feld offered a few ideas about what details Apple could have to hammer out with carriers. \u201cIt\u2019s something that potentially carriers might want to include in their advertising, in which case there may be some negotiations with Apple as to who gets credit for it, and the nature of their advertising, whether the carriers can include it in their coverage maps,\u201d he said. \u201cThere are a lot of things that go into this.\u201d Even things like whose name displays when the phone is connecting to satellites instead of cell towers could play into negotiations. <\/p>\n
One other question that could hold things up \u2014 between the carrier, Apple, the satellite provider, and iPhone users, who ends up paying for satellite messaging, and how? \u201cIn the case of T-Mobile and SpaceX, that\u2019s fairly straightforward. It looks like, at least from what little we know, that would be upfront to T-Mobile with T-Mobile doing the billing, which is the way carriers like it traditionally. They like to maintain the relationship with the customer and include everything on one on one bill.\u201d Feld said. \u201cIf Apple is working this deal separately with Globalstar and it\u2019s going to bill for it separately, that may be something that is a point of contention with the carriers.\u201d<\/p>\n
\n
\u201cThis is all on the business side. It\u2019s not on the regulatory side or the technical side.\u201d<\/q><\/aside>\n<\/div>\nHe also said that, from a technical and legal standpoint, Apple could include the chip without cooperation from the carriers. \u201cApple could always say, \u2018Yeah, we\u2019re sticking this chip in. What are you going to do, kick us off your network?\u2019\u201d Feld doesn\u2019t think that\u2019ll happen, though. \u201cBut the carriers are the guys you play with long-term. You want to make sure that your relationships with them are… friendly may be too much to hope for, but that you maintain good business relationships with the carriers, that there are no surprises, that they have an understanding.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
