[WISPA] 3.65GHz Exclusion Zone

2009-06-18 Thread 3-dB Networks
Okay I'm banging my head against the wall a bit this morning J

 

Subpart Z of the FCC Part 90 Rules - Wireless Broadband Serices in the
3650-3700 MHz Band - Section 90.1331 states:

 

(a)(1) Except as provided in paragraph (a)(2) of this section, base and
fixed stations may not be located within 150 km of any grandfathered
satellite earth station operating in the 3650-3700 MHz band. The coordinates
of these stations are available at http://www.fcc.gov/ib/sd/3650;

 

My interpretation of that rule would mean that you need to draw a circle of
a radius of 150Km from each station, and this is your exclusion zone.

 

Yet many maps on the web show this 150Km requirement as diameter. not as a
radius.

 

Our office would be outside of the exclusion zone if it is a diameter
requirement, yet inside the exclusion zone if it is a radius requirement.

 

Can anyone point me to something from the FCC that specifies what the
requirement is?

 

Thank you,

 

Daniel White

It is being 150km form the grandfathered earth station.  I'm going 
through the same thing right now getting an agreement from them to 
operate WiMax gear.  BTW I'm at a 145km distance from them, but the FCC 
won't register my base stations without an agreement.

BTW the calculations in the RO appendix have errors. I have a corrected 
version provided to me by the FCC OET. If there is interest I can post 
it online and send the link.

The appendix calculations are only an example. Earth stations are not  
required to follow them for determining interference. IMHO, keyhole  
calculations coupled with standard interference calculations a la part  
101 PCN is a superior methodology.
