SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The National Advanced Spectrum and 
Communications Test Network (NASCTN) is hosting a public meeting on the 
conclusion of their project Characterizing User Equipment Emissions on 
May 13, 2021 at 10:00 a.m.-12:30 p.m. Mountain Daylight Time. The 
purpose of this meeting is to bring together federal, industry, and 
academic stakeholders; to disseminate NASCTN's findings; and to share 
information.
    This project characterizes cellular emissions (LTE uplinks) to 
support interference models used to coordinate commercial carrier 
deployments in the AWS-3 band (1755-1780 MHz band) with Department of 
Defense systems that remain in the band. This effort consisted of two 
parts: (1) A Factor Screening effort which identified the key factors 
impacting emissions, and (2) characterization of factors impacting UE 
uplink emissions when closed-loop power control is enabled in the cell, 
and models of the emissions over operational scenarios. The output of 
this work can aid in the development of emissions models and 
interference calculations in the AWS-3 band and beyond.
