Special Temporary Authority application - Explanation

Please explain in the area below why an STA is necessary:
We would like to perform a shielding effectiveness test on a large enclosure (40 ft x 20 ft x 12 ft tall) in one of our bays located within our building. In order to measure the shielding effectiveness of the enclosure, we will need to generate a RF field. We are looking to transmit at the following discrete frequencies (Could be altered based on your recommendation): 209 MHz, 830 MHz, 6.6 GHz, 13.22 GHz, 17.5 GHz and would like to know what the maximum levels we could produce would be (The technical portion shows our maximum capability). The RF energy would only be on for at most 4 minutes per run and we plan on completing the testing within a couple of weeks after we start. We are well aware of the safety issues regarding RF energy; however we ware unaware of the FCC rules when transmitting outside of our anechoic chamber. We were told by people from the FCC that we would require a STA in order to perform this task.

Special Temporary Authority application - Initial values - Explanation

Please explain in the area below why an STA is necessary:
We would like to perform a shielding effectiveness test in one of our bays located within our building. In order to measure the shielding effectiveness of the enclosure, we will need to generate a RF field. We are looking to transmit at the following discrete frequencies (Could be altered based on your recommendation): 209 MHz, 830 MHz, 6.6 GHz, 13.22 GHz, 18 GHz and would like to know what the maximum levels we could produce would be (The technical portion shows our maximum capability). The RF energy would only be on for at most 2 minutes per run and we plan on completing the testing within a couple of weeks after we start. We are well aware of the safety issues regarding RF energy; however we ware unaware of the FCC rules when transmitting outside of our anachoic chamber. We were told by people from the FCC that we would require a STA in order to perform this task.

Special Temporary Authority application - Initial values - Purpose of Operation

Please explain the purpose of operation:
We plan on transmitting a RF field in the following frequencies: 209 MHz, 830 MHz, 6.6 GHz, 13.22 GHz, 18 GHz. We will then measure the field within the enclosure to determine the attenuation provide by the shield enclosure. The RF radiation will be on no more than 2 minutes per run and the entire test should only last a maximum of a couple of weeks.

Special Temporary Authority application - Purpose of Operation

Please explain the purpose of operation:
To determine the attenuation provide by the shield enclosure. We plan on transmitting a RF field in the following frequencies: 209 MHz, 830 MHz, 6.6 GHz, 13.22 GHz, 17.5 GHz. We will then measure the field within the enclosure to determine the attenuation provide by the shield enclosure. The large test bay is located within our facility. It contains no windows and the walls are combination of thick concrete and metal sheets. There is at least a quarter mile from our facility to the next set of buildings. The RF radiation will be on no more than 4 minutes per run and the entire test should only last a maximum of a couple of weeks.
