Last Name: Lewis
First Name: Michael
Title: Senior Engineering Advisor
Phone Number: (202) 799-4042

Explanation
Please explain in the area below why an STA is necessary:
Short term tests are needed to confirm proof of performance for Echodynes radar technology in maritime applications. Depending on the results of these tests, a longer term experimental license will be requested at additional sites.

Purpose of Operation
Please explain the purpose of operation:  Under its existing authorization, Echodyne has tested its MESA-K-DEV radar development kit, and its MESA-DAA, which is an electronically scanned detect and avoid radar for small UAVs. The testing has allowed Echodyne to evaluate the performance of the development kit in various settings to support a range of use cases and will validate the performance of the DAA radar for airborne and ground-based radionavigation. Echodyne’s previous tests have focused on aeronautical and ground services. The purpose of this STA request is to perform capability testing on maritime applications.
