In addition to improved 2-D accuracy the MBS system also provides meter level accuracy in the vertical dimension with the aid of a MEMS pressure sensor. MBS technology provides a very fast time to first fix (TTFF) in the order of ~5 seconds under cold start conditions. Similar to GPS, MBS technology allows computation of the location on the device without any network dependence thus enabling a wide variety of standalone applications. The signal structure of MBS is designed so that the signal processing entities of a standard GPS receiver’s baseband can be reused. The system is fundamentally designed for low power consumption of the receivers. 1.1 Purpose and Scope This document describes the commissioning and normal usage procedure for the NextNav Local beacon box (A4P-100-0013-01). 1.2 Intended Use The NextNav Leopard beacon system is intended to be used in restricted access locations (RAL) in outdoor and indoor environments. The NextNav Leopard beacon is a powered by a AC power system approved for use in telecommunications equipment. 1.3 FCC Compliance Statements FCC Section 15.21 Information to user. Any change…

Confidential Page 12 3/10/2014 Page 12 of 13 2.6 Tune-up procedure not to exceed maximum TX power A CSV file (configuration file) per transmitter are created by the NOC engineer based on the installation parameters such as line lengths, antenna type etc. The TX output power level setting is contained in the CSV file. The output power is adjusted by the ‘PA gain” setting. This value in the CSV file is calculated by a formula to set the output power (not to exceed 30W ERP). The variables used in the calculation include PA Gain (Gpa), TX Antenna Gain (Gant), TX filter insertion loss (ILflt), internal cable loss (ILint), external cable loss (ILext), and transceiver output power (PTCVR). ERP (W) = 10^((PTCVR - ILint + Gpa - ILflt - ILext + Gant) / 10) / 1000 The PA gain setting should be set to a proper value so that total sum of net antenna gain and cable loss coupled with PA output does not exceed 30 Watts EIRP, PEP (Peak Envelope Power) . Table 2 is a list of all possible antennas and RF cable combinations with corresponding RF power settings required to comply with the FCC requirement of 30 Watts EIRP Peal Envelope Power (PEP).

The following is the RF exposure calculation for the NextNav, LLC Metropolitan Beacon System (MBS). The MBS is a radio device intended to be used in a fixed or mobile locations – at least more than 20 cm from the user or nearby person. The calculation is based on FCC 47CFR 1.1310 and OET 65. Per FCC sec 1.1310: Maximum Permissible Exposure (MPE) for General Population/Uncontrolled Exposure in the frequency range 300-1500 MHz is: Freq. (MHz)/1500 = MPE mW/cm 2 For the Frequencies from 920.7 MHz to 928.0 MHz, the worst case MPE = 920.7 / 1500 = 0.614 mW/cm 2 = 6.14 W/m 2 The following equations determine the distance from the antenna that the Power Density (S) is: S ≤ 6.14 W/m 2 . The Maximum ERP is 30 W (adjusted for any antenna used), and EIRP is 49.2 W. Power Density S = (EIRP) / (4×π×D 2 ) (1) Minimum distance D ≥ √ (EIRP) / (4×π×S ) (2) From (2) D ≥ √ 49.2 / (4×π×6.14 ) = 0.8 m The following statement is added to the installation/operation manual: To comply with Maximum Permissible Exposure (MPE) requirements the antenna must be permanently installed in a fixed location that provides at least 1 meters of separation from all persons.
