Section 8. Testing data

8.1            Spurious emissions caused by co-located transmitters

 8.1.1            Definitions and limits

FCC §15.247 (d):
         In any 100 kHz bandwidth outside the frequency band in which the spread spectrum or digitally modulated intentional radiator is operating, the radio frequency power
         that is produced by the intentional radiator shall be at least 20 dB below that in the 100 kHz bandwidth within the band that contains the highest level of the desired
         power, based on either an RF conducted or a radiated measurement, provided the transmitter demonstrates compliance with the peak conducted power limits. If the
         transmitter complies with the conducted power limits based on the use of RMS averaging over a time interval, as permitted under paragraph (b)(3) of this section, the
         attenuation required under this paragraph shall be 30 dB instead of 20 dB. Attenuation below the general limits specified in §15.209(a) is not required. In addition,
         radiated emissions which fall in the restricted bands, as defined in §15.205(a), must also comply with the radiated emission limits specified in §15.209(a) (see §15.205(c)).

FCC §15.249 (d):
      Emissions radiated outside of the specified frequency bands, except for harmonics, shall be attenuated by at least 50 dB below the level of the fundamental or to the
      general radiated emission limits in §15.209, whichever is the lesser attenuation.

FCC §15.407 (b):
   (1)         For transmitters operating in the 5.15–5.25 GHz band: all emissions outside of the 5.15–5.35 GHz band shall not exceed an EIRP of −27 dBm/MHz.
   (5)         The emission measurements shall be performed using a minimum resolution bandwidth of 1 MHz. A lower resolution bandwidth may be employed near the band
               edge, when necessary, provided the measured energy is integrated to show the total power over 1 MHz.
   (6)         Unwanted emissions below 1 GHz must comply with the general field strength limits set forth in § 15.209.
   (7)         The provisions of § 15.205 apply to intentional radiators operating under this section.
   (8)         When measuring the emission limits, the nominal carrier frequency shall be adjusted as close to the upper and lower frequency block edges as the design of the
               equipment permits.

FCC §22.359 (a)
         Out of band emissions. The power of any emission outside of the authorized operating frequency ranges must be attenuated below the transmitting power (P) by a factor
         of at least 43 + 10 log (P) dB.

RSS-210 Section B.10 (b):
      Emissions radiated outside of the specified frequency bands, except for harmonic emissions, shall be attenuated by at least 5 0 dB below the level of the fundamental
      emissions or to the general field strength limits listed in RSS-Gen, whichever is less stringent.

RSS-247 Section 5.5:
      In any 100 kHz bandwidth outside the frequency band in which the spread spectrum or digitally modulated device is operating, the RF power that is produced shall be at
      least 20 dB below that in the 100 kHz bandwidth within the band that contains the highest level of the desired power, based on either an RF conducted or a radiated
      measurement, provided that the transmitter demonstrates compliance with the peak conducted power limits. If the transmitter c omplies with the conducted power limits
      based on the use of root-mean-square averaging over a time interval, as permitted under section 5.4(d), the attenuation required shall be 30 dB instead of 20 dB.
      Attenuation below the general field strength limits specified in RSS-Gen is not required.

RSS-247 Section 6.2.1.2:
      For transmitters operating in the band 5150–5250 MHz, all emissions outside the band 5150–5350 MHz shall not exceed −27 dBm/MHz e.i.r.p. However, any unwanted
      emissions that fall into the band 5250–5350 MHz must be 26 dBc, when measured using a resolution bandwidth between 1 and 5% of the occupied bandwidth, above 5.25
      GHz. Otherwise, the transmission is considered as intentional and the devices shall implement dynamic frequency selection (DFS) and transmitter power control (TPC) as
      per the requirements for the band 5250–5350 MHz.

RSS-139 Section 6.6:
         i.     In the first 1.0 MHz bands immediately outside and adjacent to the equipment’s smallest operating frequency block,Footnote 2 which can contain the equipment’s
                occupied bandwidth, the emission power per any 1% of the emission bandwidth shall be attenuated below the transmitter output power P (in dBW) by at least 43 +
                10 log10 p (watts) dB.
         ii.    After the first 1.0 MHz outside the equipment’s smallest operating frequency block, which can contain the equipment’s occupi ed bandwidth, the emission power in
                any 1 MHz bandwidth shall be attenuated below the transmitter output power P (in dBW) by at least 43 + 10 log10 p (watts) dB.

IC RSS-Gen Section 8.10:
      Restricted bands, identified in table 6 of RSS-Gen Section 8.10, are designated primarily for safety-of-life services (distress calling and certain aeronautical bands), certain
      satellite downlinks, radio astronomy and some government uses. Except where otherwise indicated, the following restrictions a pply:

                  a.    fundamental components of modulation of licence-exempt radio apparatus shall not fall within the restricted bands of below;
                  b.    unwanted emissions falling into restricted bands of below shall comply with the limits specified in RSS-Gen;
                  c.    unwanted emissions not falling within restricted frequency bands shall either comply with the limits specified in the applicable RSS, or with those specified in
                        RSS-Gen.
