           6.815-6.915 GHz Experimental License Application

1 Introduction
Qualcomm’s technologies powered the smartphone revolution and connected billions of people.
We pioneered 3G and 4G – and now we are leading the way to 5G and a new era of intelligent,
connected devices. Our products are revolutionizing industries, including automotive, computing,
IoT, healthcare and data center, and are allowing millions of devices to connect with each other in
ways never imagined. Qualcomm Incorporated includes our licensing business, QTL, and the
vast majority of our patent portfolio. Qualcomm Technologies, Inc., a subsidiary of Qualcomm
Incorporated, operates, along with its subsidiaries, all of our engineering, research and
development functions, and all of our products and services businesses, including, our QCT
semiconductor business. For more information, visit Qualcomm’s website, OnQ blog, Twitter and
Facebook pages.

Qualcomm is conducting 5G R&D tests using prototype base-station (BS) and mobile device
equipment in 6 GHz bands and is requesting this experimental license to assist it further in the
development, validation, and demonstration of this new technology.


2 Transmitter Information
Experimental tests will be conducted within the immediate vicinity of Qualcomm buildings as
depicted in the yellow 300m contour shown in Figure 1 and described in Table 1.

Four base-stations located on buildings in a cluster will form a short-range network around the
buildings shown in Figure 1 for communication to mobile devices (not shown).

Each base-station transmitter uses a 120-180° single-sector downward tilting antenna pointed to
small service areas at ground level for reception by mobile devices over a range of up to 200m.

The carrier center frequencies of the base-stations and mobile devices will be fixed at 6.845 GHz
and occupy the band: 6.815-6.915 GHz with a TDD 5G New Radio (NR) signal that can vary in
bandwidth up to a maximum of 100 MHz.

Table 1 indicates the site and antenna information and table 2 defines the transmitter information.
