  • While our rules allow the use of signal enhancing devices, several parties have filed Petitions seeking clarification of or changes to Commission rules to address the proper use and regulation of these devices. We seek comment on these Petitions, which are discussed below. On August 18, 2005, Bird Technologies, Inc. (Bird Technologies) filed a Petition for Rulemaking to amend section 90.219 to outline specific technical and operational requirements for the use of signal boosters by Part 90 licensees. Bird Technologies suggests that signal boosters should only be used with the full knowledge of licensees and that consumers should be made aware of the requirement to obtain licensee permission.

  • BDA system operated by Sprint was causing harmful interference to Cingular's service. Sprint is licensed to operate in the 851-869 MHz Specialized Mobile Radio (``SMR) band under Part 90 of the Commission's rules (``Rules''). The BDA system employed by Sprint constitutes a Class B signal booster, as that term is defined in Section 90.7 of the Commission's rules (``Rules''). Section 90.219 of the Rules provides that licensees authorized to operate radio systems in the frequency bands above 150 MHz are permitted to employ signal boosters, subject to the requirement that the booster retransmits only the licensee's authorized frequencies and that the licensees are responsible for correcting any harmful interference such equipment may cause to other systems. Any harmful interference must be

Upon inspection, the agent found that the BDA in question had an FCC ID number of OIWCBDA8009001W65, and that Dekolink Wireless, Ltd. had been issued a grant of equipment authorization for this BDA model by the Commission on January 26, 2005. Pursuant to Section 90.219(e) of the Rules, a wireless radio service licensee authorized to operate radio systems in the frequency bands above 150 MHz ``is given authority to operate signal boosters without separate authorization from the Commission. Certificated equipment must be employed and the licensee must ensure that all applicable rule requirements are met.'' 47 C.F.R. § 90.219(e). Section 312(f)(1) of the Act, 47

When an FCC agent was escorted to the basement, the agent found the BDA powered up and operating. Sprint Nextel has a license to provide specialized mobile radio services on 806 MHz to 818 MHz. Section 90.219 of the Rules provides that licensees authorized to operate radio systems in the frequency bands above 150 MHz may employ signal boosters at fixed locations.

  • 22, 90, and 94 of the Commission's Rules to Permit Routine Use of Signal Boosters, WT Docket No. 95-70, Report and Order, 11 FCC Rcd 16,621 (1996). Signal boosters retransmit weak signals only on the exact frequency(ies) of the originating base, fixed, mobile, or portable station(s) and cannot extend the system's normal signal coverage area. See, e.g., 47 C.F.R. § 90.219(a). See Trahos Comments at ¶¶ 12, 13. The term ``RF Hole'' refers to locations where radio reception is difficult to achieve due to attenuation of the radio signal by surrounding terrain. RF Holes are often found inside large buildings because the surrounding structure tends to attenuate radio signals transmitted from outside the building. As for the type of operation which
