§ 25.130 Filing requirements for transmitting earth stations.
(a) Applications for a new or modified transmitting earth station facility
shall be submitted on FCC Form 312, and associated Schedule B, accompanied
by any required exhibits, except for those earth station applications filed
on FCC Form 312EZ pursuant to § 25.115(a). All such earth station license
applications must be filed electronically through the International Bureau
Filing System (IBFS) in accordance with the applicable provisions of part 1,
subpart Y of this chapter. Additional filing requirements for Earth Stations
on Vessels are described in § § 25.221 and 25.222. Additional filing
requirements for Vehicle-Mounted Earth Stations are described in § 25.226.
Additional filing requirements for Earth Stations Aboard Aircraft are
described in § 25.227. In addition, applicants that are not required to
submit applications on Form 312EZ, other than ESV, VMES or ESAA applicants,
must submit the following information to be used as an “informative” in the
public notice issued under § 25.151 as an attachment to their application:
(1) A detailed description of the service to be provided, including
frequency bands and satellites to be used. The applicant must identify
either the specific satellite(s) with which it plans to operate, or the
eastern and western boundaries of the arc it plans to coordinate.
(2) The diameter or equivalent diameter of the antenna.
(3) Proposed power and power density levels.
(4) Identification of any random access technique, if applicable.
(5) Identification of a specific rule or rules for which a waiver is
requested.
(b) A frequency coordination analysis in accordance with § 25.203 shall be
provided for earth stations transmitting in the frequency bands shared with
equal rights between terrestrial and space services, except that
applications for user transceiver units associated with the NVNG
mobile-satellite service shall instead provide the information required by
§ 25.135 and applications for user transceiver units associated with the
1.6/2.4 GHz Mobile-Satellite Service shall demonstrate that user transceiver
operations comply with the requirements set forth in § 25.213.
(c) In those cases where an applicant is filing a number of essentially
similar applications, showings of a general nature applicable to all of the
proposed stations may be submitted in the initial application and
incorporated by reference in subsequent applications.
(d) Transmissions of signals or programming to non-U.S. licensed satellites,
and to and/or from foreign points by means of U.S.-licensed fixed satellites
may be subject to restrictions as a result of international agreements or
treaties. The Commission will maintain public information on the status of
any such agreements.
(e) [Reserved]
(f) Applicants seeking to operate in a shared government/non-government band
must provide the half-power beam width of their proposed earth station
antenna, as an attachment to their applications.
(g) Parties may apply for a single FSS earth station license under one call
sign covering operation of multiple transmitting antennas not eligible for
blanket licensing under another section of this part, in the following
circumstances:
(1) The antennas would transmit in frequency bands shared with terrestrial
services on a co-primary basis and the antennas would be sited within an
area bounded by 1 second of latitude and 1 second of longitude.
(2) The antennas would transmit in frequency bands allocated to FSS on a
primary basis and there is no co-primary allocation for terrestrial
services, and the antennas would be sited within an area bounded by 10
seconds of latitude and 10 seconds of longitude.
Note to paragraph (g): This paragraph does not apply to applications filed
pursuant to § 25.134, § 25.138, § 25.221, § 25.222, § 25.226, or § 25.227 or to
applications for 29 GHz NGSO MSS feeder link stations in a complex as
defined in § 25.257.
