ROID DIRT Days – CMI2 Equipment Spectrum Survey

ROID DIRT Days – CMI2 Equipment Spectrum Survey

The Rapid Operational Innovation Detachment (ROID) Driving Innovation in Realistic Training (DIRT) Days series integrates Soldiers into structured experimentation sprints aligned with U.S. Central Command (USCENTCOM) operational priorities. Hosted by the Civil-Military Innovation Institute (CMI2) in partnership with the U.S. Army Combat Capabilities Development Command (DEVCOM) and USCENTCOM, the series provides a framework to evaluate and transition operationally relevant technologies for Counter-Uncrewed Aerial Systems (C-UAS), mobile UAS manufacturing, and contested logistics, including automated guided vehicle (AGV) part production.

To ensure proper spectrum coordination and regulatory compliance, this survey must be completed for each unique piece of equipment that transmits and/or receives radio frequency (RF) spectrum.

This requirement applies to all applicable systems, including communications equipment, telemetry systems, radars, jammers, repeaters, remote controls, beacons, base stations, and similar RF-enabled devices.

If the equipment you intend to bring is powered and has an antenna, you are required to complete this survey.

Please provide complete and accurate information to support spectrum planning, safety review, and operational approval.

Instructions:
Complete one survey for each unique piece of equipment that transmits and/or receives RF spectrum.

Equipment includes, but is not limited to:

– Radars
– Jammers
– Communications systems
– Telemetry systems
– Repeaters
– Remote controls
– Beacons
– Base stations

If the equipment you are bringing has an antenna and is powered, you must complete this survey.

EQUIPMENT IDENTIFICATION

Provide the name/designation of the equipment you intend to bring.
Provide the manufacturer of the equipment.

ATTACHMENTS

If able, please provide the following attachments Photo of Equipment DD1494 or SFAF submission from prior events J/F 12 Specification Sheets (antenna specifics, RF emissions, equipment details) HERP – Hazards of Electromagnetic Radiation to Personnel HERO - Hazards of Electromagnetic Radiation to Ordnance HERF - Hazards of Electromagnetic Radiation to FUEL Other Supporting Documents

EQUIPMENT CATEGORY

FREQUENCY REQUIREMENTS

List the specific frequency(ies) or frequency range(s) required. Example: 88–108 MHz or Single Channel FM
Indicate the number of channels or frequencies required (by band if applicable). Example: 10 FM channels or 10 total
Provide bandwidth and modulation type. Example: 5 kHz / 25 kHz, FM
Indicate minimum required separation: Example: TX/TX: 100 MHz or TX/RX: 25 kHz
Provide transmitter tuning increments. Example: 25 kHz
Provide transmitter tuning range. Example: 30–88 MHz

STATION CLASSIFICATION

Indicate how the equipment will be deployed: Fixed, Stationary, Mobile, Portable, Transportable, Airborne, or Other (specify).

TRANSMITTER INFORMATION

(Complete if equipment includes a transmitter.)
Provide maximum output power in watts or dBm. Example: 50 W or 30 dBm
Indicate whether the value above represents: Mean power; Peak power
Provide emission designator (if known). Example: 25K00F3E
Provide total number of transmitters in use.
Provide the total maximum transmission radius, not the effective operational range. If multiple units are used, sum the total radii. Examples: Single system with 20 km transmission range → report 20 km; or Two systems each with 20 km range → report 40 km
(Complete only if pulse modulation is used.) Pulse repetition rate(s) Side lobe suppression (Yes / No)

TRANSMITTER / TRANSCEIVER DETAILS

Provide details for each transmitter/transceiver used: Name Manufacturer Model / Model Number Part Number DD Form 1494 Filing Number (if applicable)

TRANSMIT ANTENNA INFORMATION

Example: Parabolic, Whip, Dipole, OE-254
Details must include Name; Manufacturer Model / Model Number; Part Number; and DD Form 1494 or J/F-12 Filing Number (if applicable)
Provide height above ground level (in meters). Example: 10 m
Provide gain in dBi (if known). Example: 1 dBi
Directional/Non-directional/Rotatable
Include polarization type: Horizontal, Vertical, Circular, Helical, or Other (specify

RECEIVER INFORMATION

(Complete only if receiver specifications differ from transmitter specifications.)
Provide the total number of transmitters in use.
Provide the minimal receiver radius, not the effective operational range. If multiple units are used, sum the total radii. Examples: Single system with 20 km receive range → report 20 km; Two systems each with 20 km range → report 40 km

RECEIVER DETAILS

Provide details for each receiver used, including: Name, Manufacturer, Model/Model Number, Part Number, and DD Form 1494 Filing Number (if applicable)

RECEIVER ANTENNA INFORMATION

Example: Parabolic, Whip, Dipole, OE-254
Include Name; Manufacturer; Model / Model Number; Part Number; DD Form 1494 or J/F-12 Filing Number (if applicable).
Provide height above ground level (in meters). Example: 10 m
Provide gain in dBi (if known). Example: 1 dBi
Confirm Directional, Non-directional, or Rotatable
