  • US550A   In the band 36-37 GHz, the following provisions shall apply:

        (a) For stations in the mobile service, the transmitter power supplied to the antenna shall not exceed −10 dBW, except that the maximum transmitter power may be increased to −3 dBW for stations used for public safety and disaster management.

        (b) For stations in the fixed service, the elevation angle of the antenna main beam shall not exceed 20° and the transmitter power supplied to the antenna shall not exceed:

            (1) −5 dBW for hub stations of point-to-multipoint systems; or

            (2) −10 dBW for all other stations, except that the maximum transmitter power of stations using automatic transmitter power control (ATPC) may be increased by a value corresponding to the ATPC range, up to a maximum of −7 dBW.
