FCC Form 442 Exhibit 2 Page 1 of 2 Exhibit 2 (Item 10) Item 10 Local Multipoint Distribution Service ("LMDS") operating in the 27.5 — 29.5 GHz band provides a potentially attractive method for wireless distribution of video and other information —_w___. L_2z _ and communication services to residences and businesses. The possibility that a significant portion of the 28 GHz band will be allocated by the FCC for terrestrial use makes LMDS a strong contender for broadband interactive video, data and telephony applications. U S WEST has conducted a field trial of 28 GHz LMDS in Phoenix, Arizona during 1995. Objectives of the trial included: 1. Development of statistics for line—of—sight path availability. a) Single cell systems. — b) Multi—cell systems. c) Various transmitter/receiver heights. 2. Characterization of the propagation channel at 28 GHz. a) Basic RF characteristics, including path loss and polarization isola— tion. b) Fading, multipath, rain, and other perturbing phenomena. c) Analog versus digital modulation techniques. 3. Characterization of interference effects. a) Multi—cell interference. b) Multi—sector interference.

FCC Form 442 Exhibit 2 Page 2 of 2 As an outcome of the Phoenix field trial and further analyses of LMDS technology advancements, U S WEST proposes Vt_o install anoperational28GHzLMDS »SY§1EW.“@,P.991‘!?r’ Colorado at the U S WEST Advanced Technologiesfacility, for further testing of LMDS system capacity and flexibility for the delivery of a variety of simplex and duplex services, as contem— plated by the FCC in its current rulemaking in Common Carrier Docket No. 92—297. Specific objectives of the 28 GHz LMDS installation are: & To further develop an under in ropagation characteristics for 28 GHz signals in delivering interactive broadband video, data and telephony services; o To selectionandmodulationtechniquesforadeployable LMDSsystem: o To evaluate system perfo in various service set configurations and with various system and peripheral hardware; o To assess n need for further U S WEST field testing of 28 GHz LMDS; o To enable U S WEST Advanced Technologies to demonstrate LMDS technolo to Uclientwhich will provide the corporate funding to further assess the deployability and economic viability of this nascent technology, and which have specific interest in emerging broadband technologies such as LMDS wireless; and o Togaugepotentialvalue of the 28 GHz spectrum in anticipation of FCC _auctions.

FCC Form 442 Exhibit 3 Page 1 of 1 Exhibit 3 (Item 11) Item 11 U S WEST is currently assessing the system architecture, hardware, and associated system cost elements, of three LMDS system manufacturers. Additional LMDS manufacturers may be considered. Significant work remains to ascertain the economic viability of 28 GHz LMDS as a deployable broadband interactive technology, and consequently, to ascertain the value of the 28 GHz spectrum. Accordingly, U S WEST anticipates the length of time to complete the program of experimentation described herein to be open—ended, at least 2 years in duration.
