§ 5.54 Types of authorizations available.
The Commission issues the following types of experimental authorizations:
(a)(1) Conventional experimental radio license. This type of license is
issued for a specific research or experimentation project (or a series of
closely-related research or experimentation projects), a product development
trial, or a market trial. Widely divergent and unrelated experiments must be
conducted under separate licenses.
(2) Special temporary authorization. When an experimental program is
expected to last no more than six months, its operation is considered to be
temporary and the special temporary authorization procedure outlined in
§ 5.61 must be used.
(b) Broadcast experimental radio license. This type of license is issued for
the purpose of research and experimentation for the development and
advancement of new broadcast technology, equipment, systems or services.
This is limited to stations intended for reception and use by the general
public.
(c) Program experimental radio license. This type of license is issued to
qualified institutions and to conduct an ongoing program of research and
experimentation under a single experimental authorization subject to the
requirements of subpart E of this part. Program experimental radio licenses
are available to colleges, universities, research laboratories,
manufacturers of radio frequency equipment, manufacturers that integrate
radio frequency equipment into their end products, and medical research
institutions.
(d) Medical testing experimental radio license. This type of license is
issued to hospitals and health care institutions that demonstrate expertise
in testing and operation of experimental medical devices that use wireless
telecommunications technology or communications functions in clinical trials
for diagnosis, treatment, or patient monitoring.
(e) Compliance testing experimental radio license. This type of license will
be issued to laboratories recognized by the FCC under subpart J of part 2 of
this chapter to perform:
(1) Testing of radio frequency devices, and
(2) Testing of radio frequency equipment in an Open Area Test Site.
(f) An experimental license is not required when operation of a
radiofrequency device is fully contained within an anechoic chamber or a
Faraday cage.
