Verizon is asking the Federal Communications Commission to extend the Special Temporary Authority that has been allowing the carrier to conduct product development testing for LTE in Unlicensed hardware and devices.
According to FCC documents, Verizon’s existing STA for half a dozen sites was to expire on April 16. The pending request was received on April 15th and requests an extension until October while Verizon continues to conduct “very small scale product development testing.”
