EXHIBIT 1
PROGRAM OF RESEARCH AND EXPERIMENTATION
Pursuant to Section 5.61 of the FCC’s rules, 47 C.F.R. § 5.61, Cellco Partnership d/b/a
Verizon Wireless (“Verizon”) requests an 18-month experimental license for conventional
experimental operations to test prototype equipment in the 28 GHz band.
Description and Purpose of STA Operations: Verizon requires an STA to test prototype
devices operating at 27.5 – 28.5 GHz. The proposed STA operations will advance an
understanding of the characteristics of millimeter wave spectrum (specifically in the 28 GHz
band), channel bandwidths, and uplink/downlink ratios for residential and commercial
deployments. Testing will occur periodically within 1 km radius areas around Verizon office
locations in Euless, Texas. Verizon holds licenses for portions of the frequencies to be tested, but
tests will span portions of the band for which Verizon does not hold licenses already. Verizon
will coordinate with authorized earth stations within a 25-mile radius area and fixed microwave
systems in the 27.5 – 28.5 GHz band prior to testing, and will take immediate steps to resolve
any interference issues that might arise during testing.
Directional Antennas: The devices to be tested will employ directional, beamforming
antennas, and their orientation in the horizontal and vertical planes will vary. Additional details
regarding the proposed STA operations, including equipment manufacturers, test locations, and
technical parameters, are specified in the accompanying STA Form.
