DESCRIPTION OF RESEARCH PROJECT

1) This research project consists primarily of ground-based emitters used to calibrate aircraft
mounted electronic payloads in support of a US government contract. The aircraft will fly
preplanned routes in accordance with FAA rules and regulations to collect data from the ground
based emitters for alignment and calibration purposes. While the majority of this authorization
is requested for ground emitters, limited transmissions from the aircraft will be included in this
application and detailed under the technical data section.
2) The ground-based emitters are necessary for fine tuning the accuracy and performance of the
payload when mounted on an airborne platform.
3) The range of frequencies combined with timing of signal activation and power out variations
while coordinating with a moving aircraft preclude existing communications facilities from
providing adequate services for this project.
