RE;    Request for Experimental Spocial Temporary Authority
       ELS     No. 0848—EX:8T—2013
Dsar Mr. Knapp,
        Motorala Solutions, Inc. seeks approval o ts above—referenced applicationfor
Experimental Special Temporary Authority (STA)to operate in the 700 MHz publsafety
broadband spectrum to demonstrate Long Term Evalution (LTE) equipmentat the annual
International Association Chiefs of Police (IAGP) conference in Phiadelphia, PA for the pertod
of October 18 through October 23, 2013. The proposed operation will be conducted in the 758—
7687788—798 MHz spoctrum thatis leansed to the First Respondor Network Authority
(FirstNet®)
      The purpase of the proposed operation is to demenstrate the functionalty of protoype
broadband LTE devices designed to support the needs of the public safaly and homeland
securtty communty
        Motorola Solutions submits ts coverletter as part of the above—referenced appliation
to affim its understanding of the primary status of FirsiNet as the lcansee, to soek FirstNet‘s
consent and to provide our commitment to conduct operations under this requested STA as
described below:
       1} Operation wilbe confined to the immediate vicinty of the Pennsylvania Convention
          Centerin Philadelphia, PA.. The equipment wil include one temporary base station
          wih an associated antenna and a small number of portable/mobilunitsall operating
          within less than 1 km of the base station:
       2). The demonstrations wil be conducted on the 758—768/768—798 MHz bands, which
           are currenty licensed on a natlonwide basis o FitNet.
       3) Operation wl occur during the period October 18—23, 2013, allowing time during that
          partd for setup and testing, demonstrations and teardown
       4). Motorol Solutions has analyzed information from the FCC‘s icense databases and
           determined that the proposed operation would not interfare or create a significant
           potental for interference with any public safety operations in the 700 MH band
       5): The temporary experimental operation is not intended for the provision of regular
           public safety mission—criical communications or the delivery of ive transmnissions in
           dutles to protect ife, property or safety.

       6): Motorole Solutions recognizes that ts experimental operations wil be secondary and
           must not cause interference to any operations authorized on a primary basis in this
           spectrum licensed to FirstNet. Further, Motorola Solutions understands that any
           such primary operations have no obligation to miigate any intorference that might be
           present tothe IACP demonstration experimental operations.
       7) Motoroia Solutions acknowledges that although FirstNet has not yet deployed in the
          geographic area covered by the application, if FirsiNe! or ts assignees orlesseas
          plan to deploy in the area during the term of this STA, Motoroia Solutions may need
          to reduce the coverage or powerof its experimental transmissions or coase
          operations entraly to preventinterference to such deployment
       8). Motorola Solutions will cooperate with other grantees of exparimental STAs who are
           demonstrating in tho same spectum at the IAGP conference to minimize the potental for
           interference.
       9) Motorola Solutions recognizes that a separate concurrence from FirstNet wil be
          required for renewal or extension ofthis STA, if needed beyond October 23, 2013
       10) The undersigned person wil serve as an overall point—of—contact for the proposed short—
           term demonstration atthe IAGP conference.
       Motorola Solutions appreciates your consideration of this matter and requests that both the
FCC and FirsNet act as expeditously as possible so the requestad Experimental STA can be
granted in a timaly manner to supportthe requested demonstration poried beginning October 18,
2013
