Inkampani yobuchwepheshe bendawo, Ukuzulazula, Isikhathi (PNT) kanye ne-3D geolocation ebizwa ngokuthi i-NextNav ifake isikhalazo ku-Federal Communications Commission (FCC) ukuze iqondise kabusha amalungelo ebhendi ye-902-928 MHz. Isicelo sihehe ukunakwa okusabalele, ikakhulukazi embonini yezobuchwepheshe ye-UHF RFID (Radio Frequency Identification). Esicelweni sayo, i-NextNav yaphikisana nokwandisa izinga lamandla, umkhawulokudonsa, kanye nokuhamba phambili kwelayisensi yayo, futhi yahlongoza ukusetshenziswa kokuxhumeka kwe-5G phezu komkhawulokudonsa ophansi kakhulu. Inkampani inethemba lokuthi i-FCC izoshintsha imithetho ukuze amanethiwekhi e-terrestrial 3D PNT akwazi ukusekela ukuthunyelwa kwezindlela ezimbili ku-5G kanye nebhendi ephansi engu-900 MHz. I-NextNav ithi uhlelo olunjalo lungasetshenziselwa imephu yendawo kanye nezinsizakalo zokulandelela ezifana nokuxhumana okuthuthukisiwe kwe-911 (E911), ukuthuthukisa ukusebenza kahle kanye nokunemba kwezimpendulo eziphuthumayo. Umkhulumeli we-NextNav u-Howard Waterman uthe lolu hlelo luhlinzeka ngezinzuzo ezinkulu emphakathini ngokwakha umphelelisi kanye nekhophi yasenqolobaneni ku-GPS futhi kukhulule i-spectrum edingeka kakhulu ku-broadband ye-5G. Nokho, lolu hlelo lubeka engcupheni enkulu ekusetshenzisweni kobuchwepheshe be-RFID bendabuko. U-Aileen Ryan, oyi-CEO ye-RAIN Alliance, uphawule ukuthi ubuchwepheshe be-RFID budume kakhulu e-United States, cishe ngezinto eziyizigidi eziyizinkulungwane ezingama-80 okwamanje ezimakwe nge-UHF RAIN RFID, ezihlanganisa izimboni ezihlukene ezihlanganisa ukudayisa, ezokuthutha, ezempilo, ezemithi, ezezimoto, zezindiza. futhi nokuningi. Uma le mishini ye-RFID iphazamiseka noma ingasebenzi ngenxa yesicelo se-NextNav, izoba nomthelela omkhulu kulo lonke uhlelo lwezomnotho. I-FCC okwamanje yamukela ukuphawula komphakathi okuhlobene nalesi sicelo, futhi isikhathi sokuphawula sizophela ngoSepthemba 5, 2024. I-RAIN Alliance nezinye izinhlangano zimatasa zilungiselela incwadi ehlanganyelwe futhi zithumela idatha ku-FCC ukuze ichaze umthelela ongaba khona isicelo se-NextNav esingaba nawo. ube nokusetshenziswa kwe-RFID. Ngaphezu kwalokho, i-RAIN Alliance ihlela ukuhlangana namakomiti afanelekile kuKhongolose yase-US ukuze iqhubeke nokunaba ngesimo sayo futhi ithole ukwesekwa okwengeziwe. Ngale mizamo, banethemba lokuvimbela isicelo se-NextNav ekuvunyweni futhi bavikele ukusetshenziswa okuvamile kobuchwepheshe be-RFID.
