Box 358320 Pittsburgh, PA 15251—5320 Re: Application of Omnipoint Corporation for Special Temporary Authority to Operate Spread Spectrun Devices Dear Sir or Madan: I am writing on behalf of Omnipoint Corporation ("Omnipoint") to request Special Temporary Authority for Omnipoint to test spread spectrum pocket telephones under actual conditions in the 1850 to 2200 MHz band. Omnipoint specifically requests this SsTA to operate a total of seventeen base stations inside three hotels——the Scanticon Hotel, the Princeton Marriott and the Hyatt Regency——in Princeton Forrestal Village (Princeton, New Jersey), together with a total of 100 handsets, for a period of sixty days beginning July 27, 1992. Obtaining the STA by that date is critical to permit Omnipoint to install its equipment before the beginning of the Governors Conference, particularly given the high level of security that will be present to protect President Bush and fifty governors who will attend. As indicated in the attached Statement of Douglas G. Smith, Omnipoint requires this STA to enable it to install and pretest its equipment before the 1992 Governors Conference, test the equipment during the Governors Conference (August 1—5, 1992) and continue testing for a reasonable period thereafter. The handsets and equipment would be eligible for operation under Omnipoint‘s Experimental License (call sign KK2XCV) but for the number of units involved. Omnipoint has undertaken extensive field measurements to ensure that its operation under this STA will not cause any interference with nearby microwave links.

Statement of Douglas G. Smith in Support of Application for Special Temporary Authority I, Douglas G. Smith, am submitting this statement in support of Omnipoint Corporation‘s application for Special Temporary Authority to install and operate one hundred spread spectrum PCS pocket phones and seventeen base stations at the Governor‘s Conference this year in Princeton, NJ, and to continue our tests for several weeks thereafter. I am specifically submitting this statement to demonstrate that Omnipoint‘s operation under the STA will cause no interference to any licensee in the 1850—2200 MHZ band. At the outset, Omnipoint‘s operation under the STA would comply with the terms of its Experimental License (call sign KK2XCV) but for the number of units of equipment required. As such, all of the equipment will be very low powered, peaking at 100mwW spread across approximately 10 MHz (including quardbands) or less than 40 microwatts per OFS analog channel. In addition, all of the Omnipoint base stations will be mounted inside of three hotels, in conference rooms, lobbies and restaurants. The main conference area, the area we expect will generate the most calls over Omnipoint equipment, is in an area within the Scanticon Hotel having walls 18 inches to 2% feet thick. Omnipoint, moreover, has undertaken extensive field measurements around the hotels and in the area of incumbent

microwave links. The exact characteristics of every microwave link in all of northern New Jersey as well as all of the links within the RF horizon of northern New Jersey have been carefully documented and analyzed, and have been confirmed by two independent consulting firms, Comsearch and Impulse Telecom (see our July 8, 1992 Experimental License Report). As can be seen by the attached analysis, there are no microwave receivers whose beampaths are within the RF horizon of the test location. Further, the closest eleven receivers range from 43° offset to the beampath (at 12.85 miles) to 115° offset to the beampath at the closest link 9.3 miles away. As we documented in our earlier Experimental License Interim Report (see June 25, 1992 submission), even if all of the Omnipoint handsets on a given 10 MHz channel are at peak power and all of them somehow obtain line of sight Free Space propagation to an OFS user on that 10 MHz channel, the Omnipoint system cannot raise their noise floor by the 1 dB specified by the TSB10—~E unless they are within five miles at 90° offset to the beampath. (At all other offsets, assuming Free Space propagation, the Omnipoint system can operate even closer.) Given that all of the Omnipoint systems will be indoors, not only would it be impossible to violate TSB10O—E, but even using Hata suburban propagation assumptions we calculate that all of the handsets could be within 2.3 miles. Since there are no OFS receivers closer than 9.3 miles, there is no possibility of interference even under extreme loading and propagation assumptions.

JUL—14—92 TUE 6:39 P. 02 Accordingly, we respectfully raequest a Special Temporary Authority to operate up to 100 handsets and 19 base stations in the 1850—13990 MHz band at the Princeton locaations for 60 days beginning July 27, 1992.
