Note: The FCC and IC have a strict EIRP limit in Band 30 for mobile and portable stations in order to
protect adjacent satellite radio, aeronautical mobile telemetry, and deep space network operations.
Mobile and portable stations must not have antenna gain exceeding 0 dBi in Band 30. Additionally,
both the FCC and IC prohibit the use of external vehicle-mounted antennas for mobile and portable
stations in this band.
Fixed stations may use antennas with higher gain in Band 30 due to relaxed EIRP limits. EM9191
modules used as fixed subscriber stations in Canada or fixed customer premises equipment (CPE)
stations in the United States may have an antenna gain up to 9 dBi in Band 30, however, the use of
outdoor antennas or outdoor station installations are prohibited except if professionally installed in
locations that are at least 20 meters from roadways or in locations where it can be shown that the
ground power level of -44 dBm per 5 MHz in the bands 23052315 MHz and 23502360 MHz or
-55 dBm per 5 MHz in the bands 23152320 MHz and 23452350 MHz will not be exceeded at the
nearest roadway. For the purposes of this notice, a roadway includes a highway, street, avenue,
parkway, driveway, square, place, bridge, viaduct or trestle, any part of which is intended for use by
the general public for the passage of vehicles.
Mobile carriers often have limits on total radiated power (TRP), which requires an efficient antenna.
