FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION
APPLICATION FOR SPECIAL TEMPORARY AUTHORITY

Applicant Name:
MIT Lincoln Laboratory

Attention: Joseph Fischetti

Best Contact:
Ryan Lewis, Associate Staff 781-981-1671

Explanation
Please explain why an STA is necessary:
Authority is requested for a 12 month period – August 2015 through July 2016 – covering the initial
phase of a data collection program that MIT Lincoln Laboratory is performing in support of work
sponsored by DARPA. To support the program’s schedule and analysis efforts the data collection activity
is planned to commence in August. Due to the limited duration of operations and early start date we
are requesting an STA to operate the equipment specified in the application.

Authority is requested for only limited operation of the equipment. Specifically, operation of the
facilities will occur primarily weekdays between 8:00 am- 6:00 pm (ET). It is expected that on each day,
transmissions will not exceed 4 hours in cumulative duration. In addition, during those hours, operation
will be sporadic, not continuous. In fact, there may be extended periods of non-operation during the
authorized period.

Purpose of Operation
Please explain the purpose of operation:
The proposed experiment supports work being sponsored by DARPA and is in support of evaluating low
cost radars. The active calibration unit will help support the calibration during the testing of these low
cost radars.

Requested Period of Operation
Operation Start Date: 8/01/2015
Operation End Date: 07/31/2016
