          QUALCOMM 3550-3650 GHz MHz Experiment Proposal

1 Introduction
Qualcomm Incorporated (NASDAQ:QCOM - News) is the world leader in 3G and next-generation
mobile technologies. For 25 years, Qualcomm ideas and inventions have driven the evolution of
wireless communications, connecting people more closely to information, entertainment and each
other. Today, Qualcomm technologies are powering the convergence of mobile communications
and consumer electronics, making wireless devices and services more personal, affordable and
accessible to people everywhere. For more information, please visit www.qualcomm.com.


2 Experiment Description
Qualcomm is working with partner companies to evaluate and trial a supplemental downlink LTE
system operating in the frequency range of 3550-3650 MHz.

This trial will consist of up to 10 fixed site base stations and up to 50 small cell sites will be
located inside the geographic region described in Section 2. The fixed sites will use established
antenna sites and the small cells will be located at strategic commercial and/or residential
locations. All equipment is prototype R&D hardware controlled by Qualcomm or partner
companies.

The intent is to operate the LTE downlink 24 hours per day 7 days per week.


3 Interference Coordination
Immediate requests for Qualcomm to stop transmission should be emailed
to 3.5GHz.trial.shutdown@qualcomm.com. Alternatively, a shutdown requested can be
submitted through John Forrester who can be contacted at 858-845-7428
or jforrest@qti.qualcomm.com

In addition, Qualcomm is interested in working with the FCC, NTIA, and other interested federal
entities to develop a scheduling and/or notification process using authorized shared access
methodology, as described in the Comments of Qualcomm filed on February 20, 2013 in Gen.
Docket 12-354, to mitigate interference concerns that may exist quickly and effectively.

          4 Transmitter Information
          A single downlink RF channel with a maximum transmission bandwidth of 20 MHz will be
          operated within the requested frequency range at any one time.

          The maximum EIRP for small cell and fixed sites is listed in Table 1. The fixed sites and small
          cells also support MIMO and the defined power is with respect to each antenna element.

          Table 2 defines the deployment radiuses where all fixed and small cell sites will be located within
          during the testing.
