Since 2016 RKF has been the prime contractor for DSO’s Mobile Service Provider contract inclusive of the follow-on win in 2021. For this program, in compliance with the Telecommunications Act of 1996 and DOD guidance, RKF provides analysis of electromagnetic environment effects to Federal systems from proposed non-Federal mobile service providers systems such as 5G cellular and microwave installations on Federal property. RKF performs interference-to-noise, intermodulation, and radiation hazard and other forms of electromagnetic interference analysis to ensure the protection of Federal incumbents from the proposed non-Federal systems. RKF works both with the commercial service provider as well as DOD spectrum managers and DSO physics tools and spectrum-dependent system databases to ensure Federal operations continue unencumbered as the spectrum environment becomes increasingly shared and congested.
