Aviat Participates in Field Testing on 6 GHz Unlicensed Devices with Ameren and EPRIAUSTIN, Texas, Aug. 10, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Aviat Networks, Inc. (NASDAQ: AVNW), today announced the results of recent field testing with Ameren and Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI) to determine the effects of unlicensed device interference on licensed point to point microwave links in the 6GHz band. The field test was conducted on an existing 18.5-mile Aviat IRU 600v3 microwave link in the Ameren network operating at 5974.85 MHz with a 30 MHz channel and 256 QAM static modulation configuration with 8-foot antennas. Two types of interferer signals were used; A Part 15 compliant point to point radio and an IEEE 802.11ax waveform from a signal generator. Several points were carefully chosen both on and off the centerline of the main microwave beam to a distance of 4.8km from the receiver. At the different points several tests were conducted varying the interferer power levels, the interferer bandwidth and applying partial fading to the main link. At all times, the implementation of both the licensed PTP link and the unlicensed 6GHz devices were within legal limits of the FCC regulations. Test Results Summary:
