Experimental
Special Temporary Authority application - Initial values - Purpose of Operation
Please explain the purpose of operation:
To validate radiated insertion loss test. Frequency authorization is being requested for the period of July 22, 2013 – January 6, 2014 to validate radiated insertion loss test procedures for hardware requirements. Testing will be performed inside the Raytheon Facility at Andover, MA. Swept CW signals will be transmitted from one standard gain horn to another, over the frequency range from 8 to 11 GHz, in order to measure the insertion loss of the equipment under test. The RF source is an Agilent PNA Microwave Network Analyzer, Model E8364. Testing will be performed inside the facility The closest point to the Raytheon property line is about 180 meters away. Assuming building attenuation and free space loss, the radiated signal (25 mW ERP) will be reduced by more than 95 dB at the property line. It is expected that the testing will initially occur up to 8 hours per day, 5 days per week.
