Give the following information of person who can best handle inquiries pertaining to this application:   Last Name: Hollison First Name: Kathleen Title: Spectrum Staff Phone Number: 310-416-7199

Explanation

Please explain in the area below why an STA is necessary: A STA is necessary due to a short development and test period. The test will be accomplished at a low power to do initial validation of the test system. Further testing will be conducted on a separate frequency authorization.

Purpose of Operation

Please explain the purpose of operation:

LTE emulation transmitter test. The Special Temporary Authority is for an LTE emulation transmitter test. The LTE emulation transmitter test will prepare the Aerospace Corporation to understand cellular use impact on the services that utilize the frequency band from 1695 to 1710 MHz. This test will validate Aerospaces capability to assess the impact of cellular migration into the pre-defined AWS-3 coordination zones. This test will include a LTE-like transmitter mounted to a vehicle which will function as a cellular user. The test will be accomplished at low power levels (EIRP less than 20 dBm). The test will be performed at the Aerospace Corporations El Segundo Campus and will greatly enhance our understanding of the system and improve the equipment for future testing.
