Special Temporary Authority application - Certification
Applicant 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.

Special Temporary Authority application - Information
Callsign:
WG9XTN
Class of Station:
FX
Nature of Service:
Experimental
Special Temporary Authority application - Initial values - Purpose of Operation
Please explain the purpose of operation:
Raytheon Integrated Defense Systems (IDS) desire to us the is authority for research develop and demonstrate Outdoor microwave intrusion sensors shall be Southwest Microwave Model 300B or approved equal having a maximum range of 600 feet, and must also have field changeable antenna elements to allow the link to be operated at very short ranges up to 100 feet, and medium ranges up to 350 feet. The unit shall operate at a frequency of 10.525 GHz generated by a GaAs FET (Gallium Arsenide Field Effect Transistor) oscillator and must be certified by the Federal Communications Commission. The devices shall be bistatic and detect intrusion by sensing changes (increase and decrease) in the amplitude of the received signal. An automatic gain control (AGC) circuit shall be incorporated which will adjust the receiver gain, as needed, for various distances from the transmitter and adjust the gain for changes in path loss, such as rain, snow, fog, etc. The range of the AGC circuit should be approximately 50 dB. The sensor shall be fully self-supervised and will alarm if component failure will cause the link to be incapable of detection. Four transmitter and receiver modulation frequencies shall be available to minimize interference between adjacent units.
