FCC File Number 0378-EX-CN-2017

Exhibit 2
NTIA Manual Section 8.3.28

a. Individual authorization is for indoor use to only, and is required for each at a specific site.
The equipment, when installed, and the location coordinates are provided on the FCC Form 442
and Exhibit 1.

b. Applications for frequency assignment should be applied for as an XT station class with a note
indicating the device is to be used as an “Experimental RNSS Test Equipment for the purpose of
testing GPS receivers” and describing how the device will be used.
The hangar is constructed entirely of metal and attenuates the GPS signals to a level below the
useable threshold of the aircraft navigation systems. The addition of a GPS Re-radiation system
will provide service technicians to verify proper installation and operation of the aircraft
navigation systems with needing to move the aircraft out the hangar. The time and expense
required to shuffle aircraft around inside the hangar in order to move an aircraft in and out of
the hanger with a tug can add up quickly.

c. Approved applications for frequency assignment will be entered in the GMF.
Not applicable.

d. The maximum length of the assignment will be two years, with possible renewal.
The Application for Authorization requests a 24 month duration.

e. The area of potential interference to GPS reception has to be under the control of the user.
The low power of re-radiation equipment will not exceed the SkyWest Airlines Hanger, picture
attached as Exhibit 3. (Picture depicting building and area of operation with GPS equipment).
Only employees and visitors, pre-authorized, are permitted access to this area.

f. The maximum equivalent isotropically radiated power (EIRP) must be such the calculated
emissions are no greater than -140 dBm/24 MHz as received by an isotropic antenna at a
distance of 100 feet / 30 meters from the building where the test is being conducted. The
calculations showing compliance with this requirement must be provided with the application
for frequency assignment and should be based on free space propagation with no allowance for
attenuation (e.g., building attenuation.)
The GLI-METRO-G equipment will be configured via the front panel setting for an output power
of -75 dBm into a 24 MHz bandwidth, resulting in a signal level of -135.69 dBm/24 MHz at a
distance of 100 feet from the building where the test is being conducted. Calculations are
included in Exhibit 4.

g. GPS users in the area of potential interference to GPS reception must be notified that GPS
information may be impacted for periods of time.
The low power of re-radiation equipment will not exceed the SkyWest Airlines Hanger, picture
attached. Only employees and visitors, pre-authorized, are permitted access to this area.

h. The use is limited to activity for the purpose of testing RNSS equipment/systems.
The experimental RNSS Test Equipment will be used for the purpose of testing RNSS systems
installed onboard aircraft parked inside the Hanger/Training facility in Salt Lake City, Utah.

i. A “Stop Buzzer” point of contact for the authorized device must be identified and available at all
times during GPS re-radiator operations.
