                       KRFS Experimental License Modification Request


            1 Purpose of Operation
            Modification: to add Tucson, Arizona and Fort Sill, Ok location WF2XXY callsign

            Note: We need 200Km radius to conduct some testing near Tuscon
            Raytheon Integrated Defense Systems (IDS) to KRFS Multi-Function RF System
            (Radar). This application is to demonstrate this system as an Unmanned Platform
                         -   File Number:         0045-EX-CM-2017
                         -   Station Locations:   FIXED
                         -   Effective:           08/29/2017
                         -   Expiration:          02/11/2019
            Note: The KRFS is designed to operate over specific frequency ranges within the range
            of 15.71 to 17.71 GHz. Specific operating modes are confined to the specific bands as
            follows:
                  - 15.71 to 17.71 GHz            Radar: C-RAM
                  - 15.71 to 17.71 GHz            Missile Illumination

            2 Experimental Explanation
            As detailed in paragraph 1 above, Raytheon seeks this STA in order to allow testing and
            technical demonstrations of the KRFS System (Radar).
            3. The modulation techniques per mode are listed in the table below.

Mode                             Modulation               PRF              Pulsewidth         Modulation Rate
Radar : C-RAM                Pulse. Bi-Phase or      5 KHz – 200         0.2 – 40.0 usec         20 MHz
                                 Polyphase              KHz
Missile Illumination                 FSK                33Hz                 2.5 ms
                                                                                               160 KHz
(Transmit only)                 Fc ± 1.44 MHz
                                    (Mark)
                                Fc ± 0.8 MHz
                                  (Space)
                                Fc ± 1.12 MHz
                                    (Clear)


            The peak and mean power per mode are listed in the table below. Because the antenna
            is an AESA, the peak power levels are specified at the external face of the radome but
            do not include the antenna gain.


Mode                   Peak Power (Block   MaxTX Duty   Mean Power (Block 19a)
                             19b)            Cycle
Radar: C-RAM              5760 Watts          20%            1152 Watts
Missile Illumination      1440 Watts         100%            1440 Watts
