Form 442 Experimental License Application

   NARRATIVE EXPLANATION OF OPERATION AND NATURE OF APPLICANT

Persistent Systems, LLC, a Limited Liability Company based in New York City, is an American
manufacturer of high speed, secure data networking equipment for both military/defense and
industrial, non-government applications. Principally, Persistent manufactures scalable mobile
networking systems based on Wave Relay MANET (Mobile Ad Hoc Networking) Technology.
Persistent’s products permit voice, video, and situational awareness to mobile users with no
reliance on fixed infrastructure. For more than a decade, Persistent has been a pioneer in
developing advanced MANET technology and commercializing it in the Defense and Industrial
sectors.

Persistent has ongoing R&D activities to develop MANET products for Army, Navy and other
Defense Department deployment which necessitates a longer period of testing and deployment at
its facilities in Fort Collins, Colorado than is available pursuant to Special Temporary Authority.
An Experimental license for equipment similar but not identical to that requested herein was
granted recently. See, WJ2XWT, File No. 0898-EX-CN-2018. However, it is necessary to test
tracking antennas using higher ERP than was specified in WJ2XWT and therefore a new
Experimental license is sought now for one of the frequency ranges granted in WJ2XWT. This is
entirely terrestrial operation proposed to be conducted with respect to radio modules in the band
2200-2290 MHz which will be for MANET systems and component products for military
deployment only using the tracking antenna under test. Though the center frequency 2277.00
MHz (with a 20 megahertz occupied bandwidth emission) is the preferred frequency within the
band 2200-2290 MHz to provide a consistent benchmark for testing and evaluation in this
environment, the frequency agility of the system and the data modules includes 2200-2290 MHz
in 5 MHz steps. Frequency changes can be conducted remotely should the need to do so arise to
avoid interference. All operation will cease immediately in case of any reported interference and
not resume until the complaint is resolved to the reasonable satisfaction of the complainant.

The stop buzzer contact for this operation is Ms. Temeasha Scott, RF Network Engineer at
Persistent Systems, LLC in Fort Collins, who can be reached at 646-518-8966, or by mobile
phone at 706-409-6820. Her e-mail address is tscott@persistentsystems.com.
