| Re: Still partying... Yes. It's EIRP (I read the FCC Notice of Proposed Rulemaking in detail).
This band up to now is used by receive-only satellite earth stations. So the rules are written so that WISP's can use these frequencies, so long as they are not operating in the boresight of any of these earth stations. Since most of these are on the coasts, aimed at birds over the ocean, this isn't much of a restriction.
Yea, 3.7 Gig ain't great for NLOS, but for line of sight, 25W will go a long, long, way.
In order to use that much power, the sites must be fixed, and professionally installed. |
