Re: [WISPA] USAF Request - Read this is you want to keep using 5630-5800 Mhz

2014-06-12 Thread Scott Carullo
Update   Last week we (along with other RF users in the community) were 
invited to the AFB to meet the folks that run the radar there and to see the 
spectrum analyzer screens.  During this meeting, it was discussed that what the 
AF was trying to accomplish was to remove all users within 60Km from using 
5630-5800Mhz.  It was discussed that this seemed to be a doomed request because 
of the sheer number of users in the spectrum within such a large geographical 
area.  How would they remove all users from this spectrum, even within several 
miles of the radar...  lots of hotels, condos, businesses etc...  literally 
thousands of them.  I'm not sure if they are going after the low hanging 
identifiable fruit or if they really plan on going door to door...  They said 
things were sort of in a holding pattern with the FCC because they were 
contacted by a WISPA rep and others and there were some discussions going on 
above our pay grade locally.

 Well, here we are today.  I guess the outcome of those meetings was that we 
need to stop using the spectrum identified.  Here is the email sent from the 
FCC field officer to the local range folks that was forwarded to me:

Subject:  Meeting  to  discuss  Interference  to  Radar  at  Patrick AFB

 Scott,  I've  reviewed  your  report  concerning  radio  interference  to  a  
C-Band  (5  GHz)  tracking
radar  at  Patrick AFB.  I  understand  that  you  have  contacted  several  of 
 the Wireless  Internet
Service  Providers  (WISP's)  in  the  area  to  advise  them  of  the  problem 
 and  have  been  met  with
some  resistance  to  assist  you.
I  would  like  to  have  a  meeting  with  you  and  the WISP's  to  discuss  
this  problem  and  open  up  a
discussion  as  to what  steps  can  be  taken  to  find  a  solution.
WISP's  operate  under  Part  15  of  the  FCC  Rules  and  may  not  cause  
harmful  interference.
47  C.F.R.  §  15.5  General  conditions  of  operation.
(a)  Persons  operating  intentional  or  unintentional  radiators  shall  not  
be  deemed  to  have  any
vested  or  recognizable  right  to  continued  use  of  any  given  frequency  
by  virtue  of  prior
registration  or  certification  of  equipment,  or,  for  power  line  carrier 
 systems,  on  the  basis
of  prior  notification  of  use  pursuant  to  §90.35(g)  of  this  chapter.
(b)  Operation  of  an  intentional,  unintentional,  or  incidental  radiator  
is  subject  to  the
conditions  that  no  harmful  interference  is  caused  and  that  
interference  must  be  accepted  that
may  be  caused  by  the  operation  of  an  authorized  radio  station,  by  
another  intentional  or
unintentional  radiator,  by  industrial,  scientific  and  medical  (ISM)  
equipment,  or  by  an
incidental  radiator.
(c)  The  operator  of  a  radio  frequency  device  shall  be  required  to  
cease  operating  the  device
upon  notification  by  a  Commission  representative  that  the  device  is  
causing  harmful
interference.  Operation  shall  not  resume  until  the  condition  causing  
the  harmful  interference
has  been  corrected.
(d)  Intentional  radiators  that  produce  Class  B emissions  (damped  wave)  
are  prohibited.

 I  propose  that  we  have  our  first meeting  on  Wednesday,  6/18/14,  at  
Patrick AFB.

 So, its that easy?  Local AF guy makes a request whether reasonable or not, 
and thats the way it is?  I understand moving off the 5765Mhz and having guard 
space on either side maybe 20Mhz, but they want the whole band to stop being 
used  whether its even in the radar LOS or not, which is an unreasonable 
request, IMO.  This meeting of the minds will apparently happen this coming 
Wednesday here locally. Anyone have anything to add, other than good luck?

If your radio is causing interference to a licensed radio they have --
they can say shut it down.  Otherwise a request of shut everything down
on the band I don't think holds water

I guess, if you had any doubt, that this shows with no question the
pecking order.   How would you like to be considering an IPO and have
this as part of the Cautions in the disclosure?..I wonder what
part of the frequency properties make this band the one for this radar
or was it legacy...  If legacy, would it be a bad investment to spend
the millions or tens of millions to replace it?

Yes it really is that easy.  Welcome to the New World Order.
The Government owns the spectrum and we only get to use it if they feel 
like letting us.

End of story.

In WW2 they shut down Ham radio for security even though today it is 
accepted that hams are Helping the Government in emergencies. They 
don't need us, our customers do.

Thats going to be something we bring up at the meeting.  Its going to boil down 
to a they say vs we say - who do you think is going to lose that battle?  They 
are claiming a radio operating on 5795 on 20Mhz channel will interfere with 
their radar on 5765 with about a 1Mhz channel width.  Further-more, the RFI 
they are getting on 5765 is not from the radar, its from a beacon the radar 
interrogates on a space launch vehicle so in other words - the radar only 
listens on this freq.

 If they say my radio on 5800Mhz is interfering with their 5765Mhz beacon who 
gets involved with resolving that?  I think the guys that work there are nice 
fellas, but I conducted my own test during our testing.  I turned a radio off, 
they said - oh looks a lot better.  Sounded suspect to me.  Next radio I said 
ok its off (didn't change anything - again it was a test) and they said ok lots 
better...  They just want them all off without regards of the true scientific 
difference.  If FCC is going to get involved they need to just issue a notice 
in this area and specify what they believe needs to happen to resolve this - 
not just go on whatever the radar operator says  IMO   I believe we could 
all co-exist with a notch cut out from 5755 to 5775.  At least thats somewhat 
reasonable for us if not still difficult to enforce for the general public

Regarding the suspect looks a lot better, my suggestion would be bring 
a laptop that you can use to access your network remotely and, while 
you're all there looking at their analyzers, turn off and/or change 
channels on your radios.  It will be harder to make flippant subjective 
calls like that in a group.  If you can show that a minor channel change 
makes a difference, or better yet that you're not really the interferer, 
then you may end up with a workable solution. On the flip side, it could 
backfire and it really is lots better with your radios off.  Just like 
the TDWR interference in Vegas, it seems that cooperation in finding the 
cause, and fixing it, will go a long way and avoid the shotgun approach.

I've already looked at their SA screens.  Remember they have a multi-million 
dollar receiver attached to a giant 15 meter or so movable dish that can hear 
down below -120db.  I'm not sure how it could have seen one weak radio the way 
stuff was updating on their flat-screen computer monitors (like white-noise on 
an old TV screen).  As a matter of fact, they couldn't have seen that from the 
screen they were looking at.  They have no idea if the RF they see is from a 
mile away or 20 miles away, from the side etc...  Besides getting into the 
radar building is a fairly monumental task as far as working with them.

 Their main RF guy supposedly proposed a sliver about 20 degrees wide heading 
about 5 degrees north towards the launch pads where the radar looks be the area 
they wanted RFI removed from.  Then they decided at a meeting that just drawing 
a large 60Km circle around the three radars was easier and safer for their 
request.  Thats when this whole issue went from reasonable to unreasonable.  
That dish can't hear an access point 60Km away on the back-side or side lobe.  
Therefore that area should not be included just because it was easier to write. 
 I'm not convinced they have the staff capable of preparing an appropriate 
request

 Regarding the suspect looks a lot better, my suggestion would be bring a 
laptop that you can use to access your network remotely and, while you're all 
there looking at their analyzers, turn off and/or change channels on your 
radios.  It will be harder to make flippant subjective calls like that in a 
group.  If you can show that a minor channel change makes a difference, or 
better yet that you're not really the interferer, then you may end up with a 
workable solution. On the flip side, it could backfire and it really is lots 
better with your radios off.  Just like the TDWR interference in Vegas, it 
seems that cooperation in finding the cause, and fixing it, will go a long way 
and avoid the shotgun approach.

down to a they say vs we say - who do you think is going to lose that battle?  
They are claiming a radio operating on 5795 on 20Mhz channel will interfere 
with their radar on 5765 with about a 1Mhz channel width.  Further-more, the 
RFI they are getting on 5765 is not from the radar, its from a beacon the radar 
interrogates on a space launch vehicle so in other words - the radar only 
listens on this freq.

 If they say my radio on 5800Mhz is interfering with their 5765Mhz beacon who 
gets involved with resolving that?  I think the guys that work there are nice 
fellas, but I conducted my own test during our testing.  I turned a radio off, 
they said - oh looks a lot better.  Sounded suspect to me.  Next radio I said 
ok its off (didn't change anything - again it was a test) and they said ok lots 
better...  They just want them all off without regards of the true scientific 
difference.  If FCC is going to get involved they need to just issue a notice 
in this area and specify what they believe needs to happen to resolve this - 
not just go on whatever the radar operator says  IMO   I believe we could 
all co-exist with a notch cut out from 5755 to 5775.  At least thats somewhat 
reasonable for us if not still difficult to enforce for the general public 
buying 5Ghz APs from wal mart

 If your radio is causing interference to a licensed radio they have --
they can say shut it down. Otherwise a request of shut everything down
on the band I don't think holds water

I'm going to ask the FCC Enforcement Bureau to
  reschedule the meeting to June 25 (one week later) so WISPA's FCC
  Committee Chair (Alex Phillips) and I (WISPA's FCC Committee
  Technical Consultant) can attend. For any solution to be
  successful, we need more technical information about how the radar
  actually operates. We also may be able to apply some of the
  knowledge we gained when we addressed the 5.6 GHz Terminal Doppler
  Weather Radar interference situation a few years ago. Hopefully
  the FCC will agree to our request. We expect that a collaborative
  approach between the DoD, the FCC and the unlicensed community,
  which as Scott pointed out is much larger than just WISPs, will be
  the best and most successful approach.

Well, here we are today. I guess the outcome of those

  Subject: Meeting to discuss Interference to Radar at
  Patrick AFB

Scott, I've reviewed your report concerning radio
  interference to a C-Band (5 GHz) tracking
  radar at Patrick AFB. I understand that you have
  contacted several of the Wireless Internet
  Service Providers (WISP's) in the area to advise them
  of the problem and have been met with
  some resistance to assist you.
  I would like to have a meeting with you and the
  WISP's to discuss this problem and open up a
  discussion as to what steps can be taken to find a
  solution.
  WISP's operate under Part 15 of the FCC Rules and
  may not cause harmful interference.
  47 C.F.R.  15.5 General conditions of operation.
  (a) Persons operating intentional or unintentional
  radiators shall not be deemed to have any
  vested or recognizable right to continued use of any
  given frequency by virtue of prior
  registration or certification of equipment, or, for
  power line carrier systems, on the basis
  of prior notification of use pursuant to 90.35(g) of
  this chapter.
  (b) Operation of an intentional, unintentional, or
  incidental radiator is subject to the
  conditions that no harmful interference is caused and
  that interference must be accepted that
  may be caused by the operation of an authorized radio
  station, by another intentional or
  unintentional radiator, by industrial, scientific and
  medical (ISM) equipment, or by an
  incidental radiator.
  (c) The operator of a radio frequency device shall be
  required to cease operating the device
  upon notification by a Commission representative that
  the device is causing harmful
  interference. Operation shall not resume until the
  condition causing the harmful interference
  has been corrected.
  (d) Intentional radiators that produce Class B emissions
  (damped wave) are prohibited.

I propose that we have our first meeting on
  Wednesday, 6/18/14, at Patrick AFB.

Thanks,
