Attachment A

3.3RADIATED POWER

3.3.1The total mobile station effective isotropic radiated power (EIRP) shall not exceed 30 dBm

3.3.2The total base station EIRP in a sector shall not exceed 39.4 dBm..

3.3.3Recommendation. — In order to meet ITU requirements, the total base station EIRP in a sector should be decreased from that peak, considering the antenna characteristics, at elevations above the horizon. Further information is provided in the guidance material; however the ITU requirements will be satisfied if the AeroMACS Radiated Power does not exceed the following levels at the elevations given:

a) 39.4 dBm for elevation angles from the horizon up to 1.5 degrees
b)39.4 dBm linearly decreasing (in dB) to 24.4 dBm for elevation angles from 1.5 to 7.5 degrees
c)24.4 dBm linearly decreasing (in dB) to 19.4 dBm for elevation angles from 7.5 to 27.5 degrees
d)19.4 dBm linearly decreasing (in dB) to 11.4 dBm for elevation angles from 27.5 to 90 degrees
[UM1]

Note 1.— EIRP defined as antenna gain in a specified elevation direction plus the average AeroMACS transmitter power. While the instantaneous peak power from a given transmitter may exceed that level when all of the subcarriers randomly align in phase, when the large number of transmitters assumed in the analysis is taken into account, average power is the appropriate metric.

Note 2.— If a sector contains multiple transmit antennas (e.g., multiple input multiple output (MIMO)antenna), the specified power limit is the sum of the powers from each antenna.

Attachment B (Draft Manual as of ACP WG S/4) was included in the different file.

[UM1]

ACP WG S/5 agreed to move this parts into the Technical Manual.

ACTION 5-3 : Rafael to draft texts based on this for inclusion in thetechnical manual.
