Methods of Measurement of the Electromagnetic and Operational Compatibility of UPCS Devices
47CFR15, Subpart D—Unlicensed PCS Devices, as of December 29 2004 ANSI test
Equipment
authorization
15.305
Equipment authorization requirement.
UPCS devices operating under this subpart shall be certificated by the
Commission under the procedures in Subpart J of Part 2 of this Chapter
before marketing. The application for certification must contain sufficient
information to demonstrate compliance with the requirements of this
subpart.

Coordination 15.307
Coordination with fixed microwave service.

UTAM Role 15.307(a)
UTAM, Inc., is designated to coordinate and manage the transition of the
1910–1930 MHz band from private operational-fixed microwave service
(OFS) operating under Part 94 of this Chapter to unlicensed PCS
operations, conditioned upon submittal to and acceptance by the
Commission of: (1) a funding plan that is equitable to all prospective
manufacturers of unlicensed PCS devices; and (2) a plan for “band
clearing” that will permit the implementation of noncoordinatable
(nomadic) devices and, in particular, noncoordinatable data PCS devices,
as promptly as possible. The responsibilities of UTAM, Inc. include, but
are not limited to, relocation of existing OFS microwave stations pursuant
to requirements established in ET Docket No. 92-9, negotiating costs of
relocation, ensuring that comparable facilities are provided, and resolving
any disputes of interference to OFS microwave operations from
unlicensed PCS operations. These responsibilities shall terminate upon a
determination by the Commission that interference to OFS microwave
operations from unlicensed PCS operations is no longer a concern.

certification
15.307(b)
Each application for certification of equipment operating under the
provisions of this Subpart must be accompanied by an affidavit from
UTAM, Inc. certifying that the applicant is a participating member of
UTAM, Inc. In the event a grantee fails to fulfill the obligations attendant
to participation in UTAM, Inc., the Commission may invoke
administrative sanctions as necessary to preclude continued marketing
and installation of devices covered by the grant of certification, including
but not limited to revoking certification.

Cross reference 15.309
Cross reference
15.309(a)
The provisions of Subpart A of this Part apply to unlicensed PCS devices,
except where specific provisions are contained in Subpart D.
6.1.6
15.309(b)
The requirements of Subpart D apply only to the radio transmitter
contained in the UPCS device. Other aspects of the operation of a UPCS
device may be subject to requirements contained elsewhere in this
Chapter. In particular, a UPCS device that includes digital circuitry not
directly associated with the radio transmitter also is subject to the
requirements for unintentional radiators in Subpart B.
