low power television (LPTV) licensee
should be permitted to convert the
secondary status of its station to the new
Class A status, provided it can satisfy
certain statutorily-established criteria.
The CBPA directs that Class A licensees
be subject to the same license terms and
renewal standards as full-power
television licenses and that Class A
licensees be accorded primary status as
television broadcasters as long as they
continue to meet the requirements set
forth in the statute for a qualifying low
power station. The CBPA sets out
certain certification and application
procedures for LPTV licensees seeking
Class A designation, prescribes the
criteria LPTV licensees must meet to be
eligible for Class A licenses, and
outlines the interference protection
Class A applicants must provide to
analog, digital, LPTV and TV translator
stations.
The CBPA directs that Class A
stations must comply with the operating
requirements for full-service television
broadcast stations. Therefore, beginning
on the date of its application for a Class
A license and thereafter, a station must
be ‘‘in compliance’’ with the
Commission’s operating rules for fullservice television stations, contained in
47 CFR part 73.

Needs and Uses: On November 29, 1999, the Community Broadcasters
Protection Act of 1999 (CBPA), Public Law 106-113, 113 Stat. Appendix I
at pp. 1501A-594-1501A-598 (1999), codified at 47 U.S.C. Section
336(f), was enacted. That legislation provided that a low power
television (LPTV) licensee should be permitted to convert the secondary
status of its station to the new Class A status, provided it can
satisfy certain statutorily-established criteria. The CBPA directs that
Class A licensees be subject to the same license terms and renewal
standards as full-power television licenses and that Class A licensees
be accorded primary status as television broadcasters as long as they
continue to meet the requirements set forth in the statute for a
qualifying low power station. The CBPA sets out certain certification
and application procedures for LPTV licensees seeking Class A
designation, prescribes the criteria LPTV licensees must meet to be
eligible for Class A licenses, and outlines the interference protection
Class A applicants must provide to analog, digital, LPTV and TV
translator stations.
The CBPA directs that Class A stations must comply with the
operating requirements for full-service television broadcast stations.
Therefore, beginning on the date of its application for a Class A
license and thereafter, a station must be ``in compliance'' with the
Commission's operating rules for full-service television stations,
contained in 47 CFR part 73.

Needs and Uses: The Federal Communications Commission
(``Commission'') is seeking approval from the Office of Management and
Budget (OMB) in order to establish a new information collection titled,
``Earth Stations Aboard Aircraft.''
On December 28, 2012, the Commission released a Notice of Proposed
Rulemaking and Report and Order titled, ``Revisions to Parts 2 and 25
of the Commission's Rules to Govern the Use of Earth Stations Aboard
Aircraft Communicating with Fixed-Satellite Service Geostationary-Orbit
Space Stations Operating in the 10.95-11.2 GHz, 11.45-11.7 GHz, 11.7-
12.2 GHz and 14.0-14.5 GHz Frequency Bands and Service Rules and
Procedures to Govern the Use of Aeronautical Mobile Satellite Service
Earth Stations in Frequency Bands Allocated to the Fixed Satellite
Service,'' IB Docket Nos. 12-376 and 05-20, FCC 12-161 (``ESAA Report
and Order'').
The Notice of Proposed Rulemaking portion of the rulemaking does
not contain any new or modified information collection requirements.
The new information collection requirements contained in the Report and
Order are as follows:
47 CFR 25.132(b)(3)--Applicants seeking authority to use an antenna
that does not meet the standards set forth in Sec. Sec. 25.209(a) and
(b), pursuant to the procedure set forth in Sec. 25.220, Sec. 25.221,
Sec. 25.222, Sec. 25.223, Sec. 25.226 or Sec. 25.227 of this part,
are required to submit a copy of the manufacturer's range test plots of
the antenna gain patterns specified in paragraph (b)(1) of this
section.
47 CFR 25.227(b)--Applications for ESAA operation in the 14.0-14.5
GHz (Earth-to-space) band to GSO satellites in the Fixed-Satellite
Service shall include, in addition to the particulars of operation
identified on Form 312, and associated Schedule B, the applicable
technical demonstrations in paragraphs (b)(1), (b)(2) or (b)(3) and the
documentation identified in paragraphs (b)(4) through (b)(8) of this
section.
(1) An ESAA applicant proposing to implement a transmitter under
paragraph (a)(1) of this section shall demonstrate that the transmitter
meets the off-axis EIRP spectral-density limits contained in paragraph
(a)(1)(i) of this section. To provide this demonstration, the
application shall include the tables described in paragraph (b)(1)(i)
of this section or the certification described in paragraph (b)(1)(ii)
of this section. The ESAA applicant also shall provide the value N
described in paragraph (a)(1)(i)(A) of this section. An ESAA applicant
proposing to implement a transmitter under paragraph (a)(1)(ii)(A) of
this section shall provide the certifications identified in paragraph
(b)(1)(iii) of this section. An ESAA applicant proposing to implement a
transmitter under paragraph (a)(1)(ii)(B) of this section shall provide
the demonstrations identified in paragraph (b)(1)(iv) of this section.
(i) Any ESAA applicant filing an application pursuant to paragraph
(a)(1) of this section shall file three tables and/or graphs depicting
off-axis EIRP density masks defined by 25.227(a) and measured off-axis
EIRP density levels of the proposed earth station antenna in the
direction of the plane of the GSO; the co-polarized EIRP density in the
elevation plane, that is, the plane perpendicular to the plane of the
GSO; and cross-polarized EIRP density. Each table shall provide the
EIRP density level at increments of 0.1[deg] for angles between 0[deg]
and 10[deg] off-axis, and at increments of 5[deg] for angles between
10[deg] and 180[deg] off-axis.
(A) For purposes of the off-axis EIRP density table in the plane of
the GSO, the off-axis angle is the angle in degrees from the line
connecting the focal point of the antenna to the orbital location of
the target satellite, and the plane of the GSO is determined by the
focal point of the antenna and the line tangent to the arc of the GSO
at the orbital position of the target satellite.
(B) For purposes of the off-axis co-polarized EIRP density table in
the elevation plane, the off-axis angle is the angle in degrees from
the line connecting the focal point of the antenna to the orbital
location of the target satellite, and the elevation plane is defined as
the plane perpendicular to the plane of the GSO defined in paragraph
(b)(1)(i)(A) of this section.
(C) For purposes of the cross-polarized EIRP density table, the
off-axis angle is the angle in degrees from the line connecting the
focal point of the antenna to the orbital location of the target
satellite and the plane of the GSO as defined in paragraph (b)(1)(i)(A)
of this section will be used.
(ii) An ESAA applicant shall include a certification, in Schedule
B, that the ESAA antenna conforms to the gain pattern criteria of Sec.
25.209(a) and (b), that, combined with the maximum input power density
calculated from the EIRP density less the antenna gain, which is
entered in Schedule B, demonstrates that the off-axis EIRP spectral
density envelope set forth in paragraphs (a)(1)(i)(A) through
(a)(1)(i)(C) of this section will be met under the assumption that the
antenna is pointed at the target satellite.
(iii) An ESAA applicant proposing to implement a transmitter under
paragraphs (a)(1)(ii)(A) of this section shall:
(A) Demonstrate that the total tracking error budget of their
antenna is within 0.2[deg] or less between the orbital location of the
target satellite and the axis of the main lobe of the ESAA antenna. As
part of the engineering analysis, the ESAA applicant must show that the
antenna pointing error is within three sigma ([bcy]) from the mean
value; and
(B) Demonstrate that the antenna tracking system is capable of
ceasing emissions within 100 milliseconds if the angle between the
orbital location of the target satellite and the axis of the main lobe
of the ESAA antenna exceeds 0.5[deg].
(iv) An ESAA applicant proposing to implement a transmitter under
paragraph (a)(1)(ii)(B) of this section shall:
(A) Declare, in its application, a maximum antenna pointing error
and demonstrate that the maximum antenna pointing error can be achieved
without exceeding the off-axis EIRP spectral-density limits in
paragraph (a)(1)(i) of this section; and
(B) Demonstrate that the ESAA transmitter can detect if the
transmitter exceeds the declared maximum antenna
[[Page 26366]]
pointing error and can cease transmission within 100 milliseconds if
the angle between the orbital location of the target satellite and the
axis of the main lobe of the ESAA antenna exceeds the declared maximum
antenna pointing error, and will not resume transmissions until the
angle between the orbital location of the target satellite and the axis
of the main lobe of the ESAA antenna is less than or equal to the
declared maximum antenna pointing error.
(2) An ESAA applicant proposing to implement a transmitter under
paragraph (a)(2) of this section and using off-axis EIRP spectral-
densities in excess of the levels in paragraph (a)(1)(i) of this
section shall provide the following certifications and demonstration as
exhibits to its earth station application:
(i) A statement from the target satellite operator certifying that
the proposed operation of the ESAA has the potential to receive harmful
interference from adjacent satellite networks that may be unacceptable.
(ii) A statement from the target satellite operator certifying that
the power density levels that the ESAA applicant provided to the target
satellite operator are consistent with the existing coordination
agreements between its satellite(s) and the adjacent satellite systems
within 6[deg] of orbital separation from its satellite(s).
(iii) A statement from the target satellite operator certifying
that it will include the power-density levels of the ESAA applicant in
all future coordination agreements.
(iv) A demonstration from the ESAA operator that the ESAA system
will comply with all coordination agreements reached by the satellite
operator and is capable of detecting and automatically ceasing
emissions within 100 milliseconds when the transmitter exceeds the off-
axis EIRP spectral-densities supplied to the target satellite operator.
(3) An ESAA applicant proposing to implement an ESAA system under
paragraph (a)(3) of this section and using variable power-density
control of individual simultaneously transmitting co-frequency ESAA
earth stations in the same satellite receiving beam shall provide the
following certifications and demonstration as exhibits to its earth
station application:
(i) The applicant shall make a detailed showing of the measures it
intends to employ to maintain the effective aggregate EIRP density from
all simultaneously transmitting co-frequency terminals operating with
the same satellite transponder at least 1 dB below the off-axis EIRP
density limits defined in paragraphs (a)(1)(i)(A)-(C) of this section.
In this context the term ``effective'' means that the resultant co-
polarized and cross-polarized EIRP density experienced by any GSO or
non-GSO satellite shall not exceed that produced by a single ESAA
transmitter operating at 1 dB below the limits defined in paragraphs
(a)(1)(i)(A)-(C) of this section. The applicant also must demonstrate
that an individual transmitter and the entire ESAA system is capable of
automatically ceasing emissions within 100 milliseconds if the
aggregate off-axis EIRP-densities exceed the off-axis EIRP density
limits minus 1 dB, as set forth in paragraph (a)(3)(i) of this section.
The International Bureau will place this showing on public notice along
with the application.
(ii) An applicant proposing to implement an ESAA system under
paragraph (a)(3)(ii) of this section that uses off-axis EIRP spectral-
densities in excess of the levels in paragraph (a)(3)(i) of this
section shall provide the following certifications, demonstration and
list of satellites as exhibits to its earth station application:
(A) A detailed showing of the measures the applicant intends to
employ to maintain the effective aggregate EIRP density from all
simultaneously transmitting co-frequency terminals operating with the
same satellite transponder at the EIRP density limits supplied to the
target satellite operator. The International Bureau will place this
showing on Public Notice along with the application.
(B) A statement from the target satellite operator certifying that
the proposed operation of the ESAA has the potential to create harmful
interference to satellite networks adjacent to the target satellite(s)
that may be unacceptable.
(C) A statement from the target satellite operator certifying that
the aggregate power-density levels that the ESAA applicant provided to
the target satellite operator are consistent with the existing
coordination agreements between its satellite(s) and the adjacent
satellite systems within 6[deg] of orbital separation from its
satellite(s).
(D) A statement from the target satellite operator certifying that
it will include the aggregate power-density levels of the ESAA
applicant in all future coordination agreements.
(E) A demonstration from the ESAA operator that the ESAA system is
capable of detecting and automatically ceasing emissions within 100
milliseconds when an individual transmitter exceeds the off-axis EIRP
spectral-densities supplied to the target satellite operator and that
the overall system is capable of shutting off an individual transmitter
or the entire system if the aggregate off-axis EIRP spectral-densities
exceed those supplied to the target satellite operator.
(F) An identification of the specific satellite or satellites with
which the ESAA system will operate.
(4) There shall be an exhibit included with the application
describing the geographic area(s) in which the ESAA will operate.
(5) Any ESAA applicant filing for an ESAA terminal or system and
planning to use a contention protocol shall include in its application
a certification that will comply with the requirements of paragraph
(a)(4) of this section.
(6) The point of contact referred to in paragraph (a)(5) of this
section shall be included in the application.
(7) Any ESAA applicant filing for an ESAA terminal or system shall
include in its application a certification that will comply with the
requirements of paragraph (a)(6), (a)(9), (a)(10), (a)(11) of this
section.
(8) All ESAA applicants shall submit a radio frequency hazard
analysis determining via calculation, simulation, or field measurement
whether ESAA terminals, or classes of terminals, will produce power
densities that will exceed the Commission's radio frequency exposure
criteria. ESAA applicants with ESAA terminals that will exceed the
guidelines in Section 1.1310 for radio frequency radiation exposure
shall provide, with their environmental assessment, a plan for
mitigation of radiation exposure to the extent required to meet those
guidelines. All ESAA licensees shall ensure installation of ESAA
terminals on aircraft by qualified installers who have an understanding
of the antenna's radiation environment and the measures best suited to
maximize protection of the general public and persons operating the
vehicle and equipment. An ESAA terminal exhibiting radiation exposure
levels exceeding 1.0 mW/cm[FN2] in accessible areas, such as at the
exterior surface of the radome, shall have a label attached to the
surface of the terminal warning about the radiation hazard and shall
include thereon a diagram showing the regions around the terminal where
the radiation levels could exceed 1.0 mW/cm[FN2].
