Yes, but compared to the setup for equivalent satellite services it is very cheap. The Inmarsat antennas need active compensation and they sit inside big radomes, while the Starlink antennas are smaller and do not need to move thanks to being phased arrays. The bandwidth, latency and stability that Starlink has is also leagues better than geosynch based solutions, for a much lower monthly price. Even without considering the better performance, the price makes it viable now to have a internet connections in places it did not make financial sense before. |
