Phone Number: 9728541957

Explanation
Please explain in the area below why an STA is necessary:
An STA is necessary because Mavenir is not an Telecom operator and does not own spectrum, and does not own spectrum in this band. Mavenir would like to follow the legal path to do outdoor testing of our radio and get formal approval and verification so that we do not cause any interference to other potential users.

Purpose of Operation
Please explain the purpose of operation:  Mavenir would like to do some outdoor coverage testing on our newly developed Band n258 Massive MIMO radio. Note: Due to project delays we have not been able to conduct the testing expected up until March 2022 and thus would like to extend the original testing period. Extension required as we have not been able to start testing yet. The objective would be to verify the coverage footprint, determine the effect of urban clutter on propagation and to determine the radio performance of Massive MIMO with beam steering, as well as 5G.

Is a directional antenna (other than radar) used?   Yes
Exhibit submitted:   No
(a) Width of beam in degrees at the half-power point:   60.00
(b) Orientation in horizontal plane:   300.00
(c) Orientation in vertical plane:  
Will the antenna extend more than 6 meters above the ground, or if mounted on an existing building, will it extend more than 6 meters above the building, or will the proposed antenna be mounted on an existing structure other than a building?   Yes
(a) Overall height above ground to tip of antenna in meters:   12.00
(b) Elevation of ground at antenna site above mean sea level in meters:   193.00
(c) Distance to nearest aircraft landing area in kilometers:   12.00
(d) List any natural formations of existing man-made structures (hills, trees, water tanks, towers, etc.) which, in the opinion of the applicant, would tend to shield the antenna from aircraft: The Mavenir HQ office tends to shield the mast on in the quadrant from 240 to 290 degrees as it is slightly higher.
