§ 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.
