Section 2.1033(c)(4) TYPE OR TYPES OF EMISSION Response 1M25F9W. Section 2.1033(c)(5) FREQUENCY RANGE Response Transmit: 2110-2155MHz. Receive: 1710–1755 MHz. Section 2.1033(c)(6) OPERATING POWER RANGE AND ADJUSTMENT Range of operating power values or specific operating power levels, and description of any means provided for variation of operating power. Response The AS5ONEBTS-16 AWS wireless base station is capable of producing a RF carriers at a mean power level of from 0W up to 60W (+47.8dBm) maximum per 1.23MHz bandwidth carrier at the antenna transmit APPLICANT: Alcatel-Lucent EXHIBIT 2 FCC ID: AS5ONEBTS-16 Page 2 of 2 terminal, 0-120W per port and 0-240W per sector. The carrier output power level of the AWS base station is determined by three principle RF components: MCR-1721B (Multi-Carrier Radio), 2100MHz 60W- IPAM (IMT Band Power Linear Amplifier Module) and AWS RF transmitting filter. The carrier output power level is adjustable digitally by controlling the variable attenuators in the MCR-1721B transceiver with software in a minimum of 0.1 dB step over 35 dB range. The transmitting filter may provide a RF feedback to the transceiver in the form of CLGC (Closed Loop Gain Control) and EDPD (Enhanced Digital Pre-Distortion) to provide a constant output power desired over temperature. The On/Off of the CLGC and EDPD features is controlled by software. The non-EDPD feature is only available for low power application. In addition, the RF power amplifiers, 60W-IPAM, may be removed from the base station as needed to provide a very low power output for in-building application. Section 2.1033(c)(7) MAXIMUM POWER RATING Maximum power rating as defined in the applicable part(s) of the rules. Response The mean power rating of the AS5ONEBTS-16 AWS base station is +47.8dBm (60W) maximum per carrier at the antenna transmit terminal, 120W per port and 240W per sector. Each RF transceiver in the AS5ONEBTS-16 AWS base station can transmit multiple carriers.

Test Report

APPLICANT: Alcatel-Lucent EXHIBIT 6 FCC ID: AS5ONEBTS-16 Page 1 of 1 EXHIBIT 6 Section 2.1033 (c)(10) CIRCUITRY AND DEVICES FOR SUPPRESSION OF SPURIOUS RADIATION A description of all circuitry and devices provided for suppression of spurious radiation. Response The Alcatel-Lucent AWS wireless base stations, subject of this application, were designed in adherence to the proper Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) guidelines extending from the circuit board level to the shelf and system levels to significantly suppress inter-modulation products, carrier induced harmonics and other spurious signals as well as the emissions radiated from them. The suppression of spurious radiation was achieved mainly by implementing the following two techniques: 1. Effective filtering in the RF path of the transceiver unit and band-pass transmit filters (external to the transceiver). 2. Proper grounding and RF shielding of the circuitry, circuit boards, cables, shelves and the frame.

Test Report

APPLICANT: Alcatel-Lucent EXHIBIT 11 AS5ONEBTS-16 Page 1 of 26 EXHIBIT 11 TEST REPORT This test report presents the measurement data required by the Commission for certifying the Alcatel- Lucent AWS base stations, subject of this application. The AWS base station is available in various versions for non-in-building application (macro, compact, indoor, outdoor, AC and DC) and in-building application (digital host). The RF path for the various versions of the AWS base station is identical except that the RF power amplifiers may be removed in the in-building application due to the low power application. Therefore, the testing data of one system configuration, representing the maximum configuration supported so far, were submitted in this exhibit. All testing results submitted in this report were performed on the +24VDC AWS Modular Cell 4.0B Indoor System during the period of July 11~September 7, 2007 for both CDMA2000 voice and 1xEVDO applications, except the frequency stability test which was performed on +24VDC AWS 4.0B Outdoor system. The above AWS Modular Cell 4.0B base station, subject of this application, passed FCC Part 15 Class A radiated emissions requirements. The performance of other versions of the AWS base stations will be evaluated and authorized through FCC Class I permissive change procedure. The measurement results have demonstrated that Alcatel-Lucent Modular Cell 4.0B AWS system is in full compliance with the Rules of the Commission.

The radio was first tuned to a channel, which is transmitting in the 2110-2155MHz frequency band. The power level of the base station was calibrated to allow the base station to operate at the manufacturer’s maximum rated mean power level, i.e., +47.8dBm (60W) per carrier at the antenna-transmitting terminal. Then the carrier was tuned to other channels in the same frequency band without adjusting the power level and recalibrating, and the corresponding mean RF output power level was measured. All the carriers were configured with a combination of the Pilot, Sync, Paging and Traffic channels. The Pilot/Sync/Page channels were set up according to the recommended test model for base stations given in 3GPP2 C.S0010-C v 2.0 (Section 6), as shown in the following tables. Table 11.2.1. Base Station Test Model, Nominal Type Number of Channels Fraction of Power (linear) Fraction of Power (dB) Comments Pilot 1 0.2000 -7.0 Walsh 0 Sync 1 0.0471 -13.3 Walsh 32, always 1/8 rate Paging 1 0.1882 -7.3 Walsh 1, full rate only Traffic 6 0.09412 each -10.3 each Variable Walsh assignments, full rate only Table 11.2.2.

The test set-up for conducting the RF power output measurement is shown in the following figure. Before the testing was started, the Base Station was given a sufficient “warm-up” period as required. For a single carrier operation in the band 2110-2155 MHz, the maximum mean power at the antenna transmitting terminal measured is +47.8dBm (60W). The channels that were measured are tabulated in the Table 11.2.3. The power derivation across the AWS frequency band of 2110-2155 MHz is less than ±0.22 dB. For multiple carrier operation, each transceiver can support up to 11 carriers and each 60W-IPAM can support up to 2 carriers of the maximum power at each carrier. For the AWS 4.0B system equipped, the maximum rated mean power measured is 60W per carrier at each antenna transmitting terminal, 120W per port and 240W per sector.
