Statement of Work Receiving-Scanner/Signal-Analyzer and Software for Frequency Range 1 (FR1) and Frequency Range 2 (FR2) July 31, 2024

Place of Performance

Work to be performed

Background

As the Office of Engineering & Technology (OET) continues to support auctions internally within the Commission, a high quality measurement device which can simultaneously collect physical layer measurements with high accuracy over multiple bands is required. The purchased device will aid in understanding spectrum utilization and efficiency for both existing and emerging technologies. It will support evaluations of coverage and coexistence through direct comparisons with measurements and indirectly through measurement-based propagation studies, model development and validation, and system simulations.

Currently, the OET-owned mobile phones that are used for the Commission’s drive-testing, are limited in their data collection ability in that only certain measurements are collected at a low accuracy and simultaneous multiple band support is limited.

Scope

This purchase consists of one (1) receiving scanner or signal analyzer to measure network coverage and network performance in Frequency Range 1 (FR1) bands between 450 MHz to 6 GHz and Frequency Range 2 (FR2) bands between 24 GHz to 40 GHz. Also included are antennas with cables and mounts, shipping for the hardware, maintenance of the hardware for the first year and years two through four (2-4) of operations, and the software packages needed for measurement configuration, processing and export.

The purchased equipment and software will be used to perform outdoor drive and indoor tests to understand spectrum utilization and efficiency for existing and emerging technologies. These tests are needed to support evaluations of coverage and coexistence through direct comparisons with measurements and indirectly through measurement-based propagation studies, model development and validation, and system simulations. These activities will inform future rulemaking, support auction technical analysis (including

Document Number: 273FCC24Q0037 PROCESSED p. 8 of 39 considerations for existing incumbents and post-auction validations), assess network performance, and advance the deployment of new technologies. Some current applications include new frequency band development for 6G in support of the Commission’s Strategic Objectives, frequency band studies, best practice development specified in the National Spectrum Strategy Implementation Plan, broadband coverage audits and verifications supporting the Broadband Data Act.

The capability to perform high quality outdoor and indoor tests is critical for OET’s role in providing technology and engineering expertise to ensure the agency meets the Commission’s Strategic Objective 5.1, “advance the development and deployment of new communications technologies”. More specifically, as emerging wireless technologies become more densely deployed in new scenarios and bands, investigating and understanding the related propagation phenomena and updating the Commission’s propagation simulation tools are crucial to their evaluations. For potential 6G use, 3GPP is currently studying new deployment scenarios and related propagation considerations for 7-24 GHz, Ambient IoT and Integrated Sensing and Communication. Many propagation questions, such as the frequency dependences of path loss coefficients, Rician K-Factor, and tapped delay line coefficients, are currently unknown. A scanner capable of performing tests in and around the target frequencies can validate scenario and model outputs from standard organizations, be used to update the Commission’s tools, and inform the related Commission’s future rulemaking and auction activities.

A propagation measurement setup is also needed to support studies of frequency bands identified in the National Spectrum Strategy implementation plan for repurposed for non-Federal or shared Federal and non-Federal use: (1) 3.1-3.45 GHz; (2) 5030-5091 MHz;

(3) 7.125-8.4 GHz; (4) 18.1-18.6 GHz; and (5) 37.0-37.6 GHz. A study plan is being developed between the NTIA and affected agencies including the Commission; a part of this study may include propagation measurement and model development, coverage of current incumbents as well as exploration and demonstration of spectrum sharing methodologies. A scanner may enhance the Commission’s impact on these studies through measurements of incumbents in target areas, measurements of target deployment scenarios, measurement-based proposals for study coexistence parameters, and proposed propagation model development.

From the Broadband Data Act, speed test applications were developed as part of a “process through which entities or individuals in the United States may submit specific information about the deployment and availability of broadband internet access service in the United States on an ongoing basis so that the information may be used to verify and supplement information provided by providers of broadband internet access service for inclusion in the maps created under section 802(c)(1)". In support of verification requirements in the Broadband Data Act, the Commission requires a capability on an "ongoing basis" to ensure that our data collection capabilities continue to be "highly reliable" and "have proven methodologies".

Given the variability of propagation, network conditions (e.g., loading) and network deployment parameters, as well as the continual evolution of cellular radio access technologies including user and network equipment, a high quality measurement device is required to continually quantify and verify the reliability of measurements from speed test applications in a diversity of scenarios. In addition to verifications, the additional measurements available with a scanning receiver or signal analyzer such as L1 beam-level measurements can be used to troubleshoot speed test issues (e.g., 0 speed and null speed results) and as a baseline in targeted market audits/ verifications.

Lastly, a high accuracy measurement source is needed in support of the Commission’s strategic objective 1.1, performance goal 1.1.1, to “evaluate … the availability of broadband services throughout the country”. These evaluations can be measurement-based or coverage simulation-based. In either case, discrepancies with broadband provider submitted maps, user collected data, and the Commission’s simulated coverage. To diagnose discrepancies, drive tests can be used to verify link budget parameters (e.g., vehicle penetration loss, shadow fading), base station locations, antenna orientations, and the suitability and accuracy of specified propagation models (e.g., Forsk Aster Macro Model). For the latter, the Commission is also developing its own propagation simulation tools (e.g., TVStudy and PLUM), and the measurements provided from the procured equipment will be invaluable to setting model parameters such as diffraction and diffuse scattering coefficients.
