Explanation
Please explain in the area below why an STA is necessary:
Equinox intends to integrate LTE communications system operating in licensed bands into multi-rotor unmanned aerial vehicles that receive their electrical power and network connectivity through a cable that is connected to both a generator and a BTS or laptop. These systems will be used as temporary towers, flying up to 120 meter for periods of several hours at a time. The drones will carry a range of antennas, amplifiers, complete small cell products, and fiber-fed remote radio heads. Experiments will focus on range, signal quality, and data throughput performance. Ground activities will utilize user equipment handsets to communicate over private networks with locally hosted or cloud-hosted network cores.

Purpose of Operation
Please explain the purpose of operation:  Purpose: Research and Development and technology demonstrations supporting disaster recovery cellular communications restoration by flying LTE pico cells and small cells as well as fiber-feb remote radio heads on tethered drones in lieu of temporary towers. We will optimized RF engineering and drone design for the LTE applications as stated.
