Explanation

Please explain in the area below why an STA is necessary:
An STA is needed to demonstrate and to determine the performance of an experimental radio system. These tests are in support of the public good because they provide validation of new communications technology to be used for defense applications.

Purpose of Operation

Please explain the purpose of operation:

This communication systems purpose is to increase the amount of spectrum available to DoD operations. The tests will be a combination of short (minutes) and long term (several hours) duration tests during the 6 month STA period. The system uses Dynamic Spectrum Access (DSA) software that enables operation on unused channels without causing interference to legacy systems. The system uses spectrum sensing to determine channels not used by legacy transceivers. The system automatically chooses an acceptable channel based on the potential interference to legacy users and interference from other users.
