Title: President
Phone Number: 703-761-2818 x 103

Explanation
Please explain in the area below why an STA is necessary:
The purpose of this test is twofold: 1) Shared Spectrum is under contract with the Department of Defense’s DARPA XG program to do a demonstration of XG cognitive radio technology. The contract number is FA8750-05-C-0150. This STA is needed for an open air demonstration required by the statement of work NEXT GENERATION (XG) COMMUNICATIONS PHASE III, PCSN R-5-8067, 17 JUNE 2005, Section.2.4 Field Demonstrations of this contract. 2) FCC is now considering Docket 04-186 dealing with possible unlicensed use of TV spectrum using cognitive radio technology. Many of the commenting parties have stressed the importance of real world data in these deliberations. Many of the tests requested in this STA deal with concepts included in the NPRM so that the results of these tests will be a valuable contribution to this ongoing proceeding. Shared Spectrum Company pledges to compile promptly tests results related to Docket 04-186 and to ask DARPA to approve quickly the public release of such information so it can be promptly filed in the public record for the Commission’s consideration. We request expedited processing of this application for the following reasons: 1) Shared Spectrum Company is a small business concern, and its primary revenue source is this contract. A delay in obtaining the STA would cause a significant financial hardship to company because we don’t have other projects to put the engineering staff on while waiting for the STA to be granted. 2) The project has a Go/No-Go demonstration in July 2006. We need to start the outdoor tests now to prepare for this demonstration. 3) Dynamic spectrum sharing technology will provide great public benefit. 4) Rapid deployment of dynamic spectrum sharing technology is critical to the ability of the government to conduct humanitarian as well as military operations overseas.

Purpose of Operation
Please explain the purpose of operation:  Demonstrating DARPA XG cognitive radio technology under an Air Force Rome Laboratory contract. Below are the points of contact that are available to immediately cease transmission if interference occurs: Karl Steadman 650 468-6153 (cell) Mark McHenry 703-862-7495 (cell) Michael Conley 703-980-5388 (cell) See the attached memo.
