Explanation
Please explain in the area below why an STA is necessary:
We would like to showcase our 126-182 GHz sub-THz spectroscopy sensor technology at the International Microwave Symposium (IMS) in the Washington. We do not have FCC approval for the devices yet. There seems to be a lot of interest from the US market in this new technology and the STA license would allow us to operate the devices for some first well defined (indoor, low range) demo & test cases. For reference, please see 0661-EX-CN-2023 and 1885-EX-ST-2022 for similar applications.

Purpose of Operation
Please explain the purpose of operation:  To operate the devices for experimental demonstrations (non-destructive testing synthetic aperture radar imaging, material characterization, Radar-VNA S-Parameter measurement. We are attending the IEEE International Microwave Symposium (June 16-22, Walter E. Washington Convention Center, Washington, DC) with our own booth and it would be nice to be able to operate the devices for experimental demonstrations (non-destructive testing synthetic aperture radar imaging, material characterization, Radar-VNA S-Parameter measurement measurement, 1 micron precision ranging) at the IMS exhibition floor. All demonstrations will be indoor (sufficiently shielded) to ensure operation on a non-interference and non-protection basis. Devices will be temporarily imported via Carnet ATA and returned to Germany.

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.
