(KVH) is granted special temporary authority for 60 days, beginning September 11, 2016, to operate the V7 terminal using various emission designators to communicate with Permitted List satellites in the 14.0—14.5 GHz (Earth—to—space), 10.95—11.2 GHz (space—to—Earth), 11.45—11.7 GHz (space—to—Earth) and 11.7—12.2 GHz (space—to—Earth) bands on the following conditions: 1. In the event of any harmfulinterference as a result of operations under this grant of STA, Intelsat shall cease operations immediately upon notification of such interference and shall immediately inform the Commission, in writing, of such an event. 2. All operations shall be on an unprotected, non—interference basis to both government and non— government operations. 3 Any action taken or expense incurred as a result of operations pursuant to this STA is solely at KVH‘s own risk. 4. Grantof this authorization is without prejudice to any determination that the Commission may make regarding any pending or future Intelsat applications. This action is issued pursuant to Section 0.261 of the Commission‘s rules on delegated authority, 47 C.F.R. §0.261, and is effective immediately. 2 oN ' L ;‘f’{\ dMJ-I“ILn" [p_@;lpv.} S 3 300735 '7{ mos 5E5—974—201105snbrrcome CM§gnHW0L Qrmrem OF(2 mmhwmnm M"/é)é.go/& PonO c _p(/o‘éo/é

Before the FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION Washington, DC 20554 In the Matter of Application of KVH Industries, Inc. for a 60— ) Day Special Temporary Authorization ) Call Sign E090001 ("STA") for Certain Earth Station Onboard ) _ Vessel ("ESV") Operations ) File No.5 CS‘~S’Z£=QD/GD@3'OO7S; APPLICATION_FOR SPECIAL TEMPORARY AUTHORIZATION KVH Industries, Inc. (‘KVH"), pursuant to Section 25.120 of the Commission‘s Rules, 47 C.F.R. § 25.120, seeks a 60—day special temporaryauthorization ("STA") to operate its previously licensed Model V7 ("V7") earth station onboard vessel ("ESV") terminal using an additional emission with a power spectral density higher than those previously authorized. This emission is compliant with the Commission‘s two—degree spacing policies and Section 25.222 of the Rules governing Ku—band ESV operations. Under its ESV blanket license, Call Sign E090001, KVH is authorized to operate the V7 terminal using various emission designators: to communicate: with Permitted List satellites in the 14.0—14.5 GHz (Earth—to—space), 10.95—11.2 GHz (space—to—Earth), 11.45—11.7 GHz (space—to— Earth) and 11.7—12.2 GHz (space—to—Earth) bands. The additional emission will improve KVH‘s operational flexibility to provision maritime communications applications to private, commercial and government vessels operating in U.S. waters and beyond. KVH requests this 60—day STA to permit operation of the V7 during the pendency of its concurrently filed modification application for identical operations,‘ which will afford KVH the !

opportunity to begin initial link evaluation for the new emission in the context of real—world operations while the application on public notice for comment by interested parties. The additional emission is compliant with the off—axis EIRP spectral density limits specified in Section 25.222(a)(1) of the Commission‘s Rules. KVH incorporates by reference relevant V7 terminal technical imnformation previously submitted with prior ESV blanket license applications.® KVH confirms that V7 terminal operations will be consistent with other relevant terms, conditions and operational parameters in KVH‘s ESV license. Additionally, KVH provides the attached as—filed FCC Form 312 Schedule B and updated radiation hazard analysis to reflect information that is changing as a result of the additional emission. The public interest would be served by grant of this STA because it will allow KVH to enhance its operational flexibility by utilizing a smaller emission bandwidth and provide improved high—speed satellite broadband services to various public and private U.S. maritime customers. Additionally, because the new emission compliecs with the Commission‘s two—degree spacing values and other ESV rules and policies, grant is fully consistent with the public interest. Section 25.120(a) provides that STA requests should be filed at least three working days prior to the date of commencement of the proposed operations. Here, KVH is proposing to commence operations on Monday, September 2, 2016. Based on the foregoing, the public interest would be served by a grant of the requested 60— day STA to allow KVH to operate the V7 terminal using a new emission designator by September 2, 2016 or at the earliest practicable time thereafter. 2 See KVH Industries, Inc., File No. SES—LIC—20081104—01450 and subsequent file numbers, Call Sign EO90001.
