Explanation

Please explain in the area below why an STA is necessary:
Leidos (formerly SAIC) has previously operated a proprietary data-link system under Experimental Licence. This license, although currently expired, provided fo operation in and around our San Diego facilities. As part of a contract program with US Army - PEO-STRI, SAIC must test and demonstrate the performance of this data link in the Orlando FL area over the next several months, concluding around March 31, 2014. The setup, test, and formal demonstration, will be intermittent.

Purpose of Operation

Please explain the purpose of operation:

Demonstration of data link system requirements as specified by the contract between SAIC and US ARMY - PEO-STRI. The operation will demonstrate the data link system requirements as specified by the contract between SAIC and US ARMY - PEO-STRI. This includes the data transfer between the mobile elements and Fixed elements, consisting of Position Location information as well as certain types of events that are collected at mobile stations

Datum: NAD 83
Is a directional antenna (other than radar) used? No
Exhibit submitted: No
(a) Width of beam in degrees at the half-power point:
(b) Orientation in horizontal plane:
(c) Orientation in vertical plane:
Will the antenna extend more than 6 meters above the ground, or if mounted on an existing building, will it extend more than 6 meters above the building, or will the proposed antenna be mounted on an existing structure other than a building? Yes
(a) Overall height above ground to tip of antenna in meters: 40.00
(b) Elevation of ground at antenna site above mean sea level in meters: 5.20
(c) Distance to nearest aircraft landing area in kilometers: 1.30
(d) List any natural formations of existing man-made structures (hills, trees, water tanks, towers, etc.) which, in the opinion of the applicant, would tend to shield the antenna from aircraft: This tower will be located at the stated address. this location is essentially 45 degrees to either of the flight paths (runway directions) into Space Coast Regional Airport. It is near two buildings at the address, but the tower extends well above the buildings and they do not provide shielding per se. The FAA has been notified of our plans.
