Applicant certification
Neither the applicant nor any other party to the application is subject to a denial of Federal benefits that includes FCC benefits pursuant to Section 5301 of the Anti-Drug Abuse Act of 1988, 21 U.S.C. Section 862, because of a conviction for possession or distribution of a controlled substance. The applicant hereby waives any claim to the use of any particular frequency or electromagnetic spectrum as against the regulatory power of the United States because of the prvious use of the same, whether by license or otherwise, and requests authorization in accordance with this application. (See Section 304 of the Communications Act of 1934, as amended.) The applicant acknowledges that all statements made in this application and attached exhibits are considered material representations, and that all the exhibits part hereof and are incorporated herein as if set out in full in this application; undersigned certifies that all statements in this application are true, complete and correct to the best of his/her knowledge and belief and are made in good faith. Applicant certifies that construction of the station would NOT be an action which is likely to have a significant environmental effect. See the Commission's Rules, 47 CFR1.1301-1.1319.

Special Temporary Authority application - Explanation
Please explain in the area below why an STA is necessary:
The authorization for an experimental license will be used to test and evaluate uplink and downlink transceiver performance of Telephonic's wireless nanoCell product, which is under development. The nanoCell operates in the PCS band. The nanoCell, which behaves as though multiple cellular base stations and mobile stations are contained within the same box, will transmit and receive an appropriately modulated waveform (GMSK) in order to interoperate with base station equipment, mobile stations (handsets) from various manufacturers, and other nanoCells. Functional testing will be used to verify and validate the nanoCell's capabilities, and will also be used to demonstrate the features to potential customers. Typically, a base station signal will be broadcast from the Melbourne facility rooftop antenna to mobile stations and/or nanoCells within radio range. nanoCells will then receive and process the base station signal, and generate their own unique base station signals to communicate with nearby nanoCell equipment or with mobile stations. It is the objective of this research and experimentation to develop and certify a new cellular infrastructure device that will significantly increase spectral efficiency of cellular communications. We intend to demonstrate in an open test range environment that a high quality of service may be maintained more efficiently than traditional base station to mobile station communication networks.
