Explanation
Please explain in the area below why an STA is necessary:
These tests can not be implemented in an indoor chamber environment.
Purpose of Operation
Please explain the purpose of operation:
STR seeks to perform ground based over-the-air testing with 6-foot diameter reflector antennas. This request, incorporating the same equipment as WU9XQF, would be deployed to 2 additional locations. The demonstration antennas will be transported to approved test locations by truck, positioned, and then used for short interval (~30 minutes per day) and episodic (several days) data collection campaigns.
