 Related to the Nokia application for a CBRS Experimental
             License File No. 0496-EX-CN-2018

              Planned accomplishments of the pilot/trial

      Program of research and experimentation proposed including description of
      equipment and theory of operation:


        “Utilities have traditionally deployed Wi-Fi and WiMax networks to satisfy their wireless data
      demand. Wifi has become crowed and WiMax has reached end of life. CBRS enables utilities to use
      cost-effective mobile broadband in shared frequencies without the need to purchase licensed
      spectrum, FCC governance provides guidance that assists with reducing interference issues that
      limit the mobile broadband customer experience over unlicensed spectrum. CBRS enables Private
      LTE networks with high capacity, easy deployment and excellent customization options. Utilities can
      use private LTE coverage that is reliable, scalable and offers seamless mobility. This will benefit
      large remote sites that often do not have conventional 3GPP LTE coverage, such as remote utility
      hubs. Utilities are in a prime position to use CBRS to deploy LTE in support Internet of Things (IoT)
      as there are numerous sensors, meters and other utility end points that can be served.



      The grant of the requested experimental license will allow Nokia to
      CBRS offers attractive unit economics for mobile coverage and capacity. Up to 150 MHz of
      favorable mid-band spectrum and it is expected low spectrum acquisition costs will open new
      business opportunities that have been prohibitive in the past. With the support of all four major
      mobile operators in the U.S., and the existing use of 3.5 GHz as an LTE band in other parts of the
      world, the device ecosystem support for the 3.5 GHz CBRS band/technology is more likely than
      ever, and the broadening ecosystem is likely to bring scale advantages and consequently low-cost
      solutions. Comparative unit economics in terms of monthly cost to deliver a gigabyte of data shows
      that a CBRS base station can potentially deliver a 40% reduction relative to a traditional LTE small
      cell leveraging licensed spectrum.”




      Specific objectives thought to be accomplished:

      Prove that CBRS can be used as superior mobile connectivity technology for use
      cases mentioned above to increase enterprise operations efficiency.
