The Leica Ictos device is installed to transmit on a horizontal plane with
respect to the UA on which it is mounted to limit emissions above the
horizon. Operation is limited to line-of-sight only.
4
.
The Leica Ictos device comply with the following technical characteristics:
a) intentional emissions will be contained to the 60-64 GHz band; b) out-
of-band emissions will not exceed
−
51.3 dBm EIRP/MHz; c) transmit duty
cycle will not exceed 50% over any 40 milliseconds interval; and d) trans-
mission will occur only when the device is in motion.
5
.
Leica Ictos devices is allowed to operate below a maximum altitude of
400 feet above ground level, unless the small unmanned aircraft: (1) is

marketed for retail consumer markets.
7
.
This waiver and its conditions apply only to the Leica Ictos device installed
on a UA as described herein and are not to be considered to apply gener-
ally to other field disturbance sensors or radars. A copy of this Order will
