Special Temporary Authority application - Explanation
Please explain in the area below why an STA is necessary:
The 3650MHz - 3700 MHz is a new licensed band being contemplated for WiMax operation, for which over the air testing is required. More importantly, however, Intels recent experience with other 3.5 GHz experimental stations will allow for a quick installation and deployment of wireless networks capable of handling data and VoIP. The Red Cross has requested such networking equipment from Intel and SBC in the disaster areas of the Gulf Coast, and an STA appears to be the quickest route to establishing legal wireless communications of this type.
