U.S. Antenna Structure Registration rules are contained in Part 17 of Federal Communications Commission Rules (47 C.F.R. 17). [1] The purpose of these rules is to regulate via the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and the FCC antenna structures in the US that are taller than 60.96 meters (200 feet) above ground level or that may interfere with the flight path of a nearby airport.
The FCC shot clock rules governs the length of time that local and state governments must process applications for certain cell towers. If two or more wireless providers share a cell tower, the state/local agencies must process the applications within 90 days. The agencies must process applications within 150 days for new cell towers. [31]
The second-tallest structure in Nevada is the Moapa Entravision Tower at Moapa, a 426.7 m (1,400 ft) tall guyed TV mast at Moapa erected in 2008, the third-tallest is the 401 m (1,316 ft) tall Moapa Kemp Tower at Moapa, the fourth-tallest is Stratosphere Tower near downtown Las Vegas, which was erected in 1994–96 and reaches 1,149 ft (350 m ...
Cell towers frequently use a directional signal to improve reception in higher-traffic areas. In the United States, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) limits omnidirectional cell tower signals to 100 watts of power. If the tower has directional antennas, the FCC allows the cell operator to emit up to 500 watts of effective radiated ...
The StingRay is an IMSI-catcher with both passive (digital analyzer) and active (cell-site simulator) capabilities. When operating in active mode, the device mimics a wireless carrier cell tower in order to force all nearby mobile phones and other cellular data devices to connect to it. [9][10][11] The StingRay family of devices can be mounted ...

Cellular lattice tower A cell tower in the bush in Africa. A cell site, cell phone tower, cell base tower, or cellular base station is a cellular-enabled mobile device site where antennas and electronic communications equipment are placed (typically on a radio mast, tower, or other raised structure) to create a cell, or adjacent cells, in a cellular network.
