隨著全球衛星通信技術迅速發展，低軌道衛星能提供負擔得起的衛星寬頻服務。低軌衛星技術易於部署到地面基礎設施受限的農村和偏遠地區，解決數位落差問題，滿足各種地理環境下的工業物聯網連線需求， 因而備受全球關注。
全球低軌衛星業者之中，SpaceX憑藉產業領先的發射能力，在衛星部署領域上處於領先地位。 SpaceX的星鏈計劃 (Starlink)已成功地在美國提供初始測試服務，並計劃進入台灣市場提供固定衛星通訊服務。然而， Starlink衛星地球電臺上鏈頻率與國內行動業務頻段相同，可能造成有害干擾；另隨著衛星服務範圍的擴大，衛星終端用戶可能任意地安裝設置衛星地球電臺，而對既有業務或飛航安全產生干擾風險。由於低軌衛星服務牽涉到不同層面的監理議題，未來Starlink衛星服務的推出， 國內現行衛星監理架構可能將 面臨巨大的挑戰。
因此，本研究以文獻分析法，針對國外低軌道衛星服務發展及相關監理議題進行蒐集和分析，並採個案研究與比較分析法，研究聚焦在衛星頻譜申請與外資管制、衛星業務授權與執照管理、衛星地球電臺設置使用、衛星干擾協調管理以及衛星電臺設備器材認證等議題。上述主題均與先進國家的低軌衛星監理有關，經與國內現行制度對比分析研究 我們能夠瞭解各國衛星監理實務措施，進而為台灣未來引進低軌道固定衛星服務提出具體建議。
綜此，本研究希冀透過論文的研究結果及建議，能拋磚引玉作為我國未來低軌道衛星服務發展之政策參考。

With the rapid development of global satellite technology, low-earth orbit (LEO) satellites can provide affordable satellite broadband services. This LEO technology has attracted global attention due to easily deploying to rural and remote areas with limited ground infrastructure, solving the problem of digital gap, and accomplishing the needs of industrial IoT connections in various geographical environments.
One of LEO companies, SpaceX takes the lead in satellite deployment with its industry-leading launch capabilities. SpaceX's Starlink project has successively provided initial test services in the US and plans to enter Taiwan market to provide fixed satellite services. However, the uplink frequency of the Starlink satellite earth station is the same with the domestic mobile service and may cause harmful interference. In addition, with the expansion of the scope of satellite services, user terminals may be installed and set up as satellite earth stations arbitrarily which may cause interference risks to incumbent services or aviation safety. Since LEO satellite services involve different supervision issues, the launch of Starlink satellite services in the future will face a big challenge in Taiwan's current satellite regulatory framework.
Therefore, this study uses the document analysis method to collect and analyze the development of LEO satellite services as well as related regulatory issues in foreign countries. With case study and comparative research method, this thesis focuses on the spectrum application and foreign investment control, service authorization and license management, earth station installation, interference coordination, and equipment certification. All of the above topics are related to the supervision of LEO satellites in developed countries. As compared with domestic current systems, we can understand the practical measures of satellite supervision in various countries and then, put forward specific suggestions for Taiwan to introduce LEO fixed satellite services in the future.
To sum up, this study hopes the research results and suggestions can be used as a policy reference for the introduction of LEO satellite services in Taiwan in the future.
