Experimental Radio Applications at the FCC

This summarizes a selection of applications for the Experimental Radio Service received by the FCC during February 13-20: landslide monitoring, WiMAX, earth-station antennas, radar, military mobile data, automatic aircraft landing, psyops transmission.

  • Skyport Global Communications filed an application (with supporting exhibits) to test a 55cm slot-array X-band antenna manufactured by EMS Technologies on 8218-8400 MHz. The test will be done using a satellite link between the 55cm antenna in Atlanta, Georgia and a hub in Houston, Texas using the XTAR LANT X-band satellite.

Experimental Radio Applications at the FCC

This summarizes a selection of applications for the Experimental Radio Service received by the FCC during January 25-29: radar, mobile broadband, auto-tracking antennas, millimeter wave, missile telemetry, astronomy research support.

  • Powerwave, a wireless infrastructure vendor, files an application and supporting exhibits for experimental license to operate on 210-216 and 450-456 MHz in Santa Ana, California. The company wants to test operational and coverage aspects of Mobile Broadband Routable Internet (MBRI) users as they move about a campus setting. Hardware and software for handover, quality of service, and power control is to be tested.
