Section 22.99 defines ``in-building radiation systems'' as ``[s]upplementary systems comprising low power transmitters, receivers, indoor antennas and/or leaky coaxial cable radiators, designed to improve service reliability inside buildings or structures located within the service areas of stations in the Public Mobile Services.'' Section 22.383 provides that PMS licensees may install in-building radiation systems, without prior FCC approval, within their ``protected service area.'' Section 22.352(c)(7), which contains a cross reference to section 22.383, provides that no interference protection is afforded to in-building radiation systems. In-building radiation systems are exempted from FAA notification under section 17.14(a) and, under section 22.377, transmitters used with in-building radiation systems

  • of Equipment The Commission eliminated Section 22.379 from the rules. Auxiliary Test Transmitters The Commission eliminated Section 22.381 from the rules. In-building Radiation Systems Commission staff currently is examining a set of issues related to the appropriate regulatory treatment of wireless boosters used to improve or facilitate service in a number of areas, including buildings. Accordingly, the FCC addressed Section 22.383 in the context of that examination. The Commission clarified that under current policies, such devices may only be operated by a licensee or pursuant to the licensee's permission and control, unless they fall under the power limits for unlicensed devices under the Part 15 rules. Developmental Authorizations Developmental Authorization of 43 MHz Paging Transmitters The Commission deleted Sections 22.411 and
