uAvionix P200S 1.0 Introduction 1.1 Scope This report describes the extent to which the equipment under test (EUT) conformed to the intentional radiator requirements of the United States. 1.2 EUT Description Table 1.2.1 Equipment Under Test Manufacturer & Model Serial # Photo Description uAvionix LLC Mode S P200S none Transponder for 1090 MHz Operating Voltage: 48 VDC nominal. Table 1.2.2 EUT Options Description Gain Notes For use with surface mounted antenna ¼ wave SMA whip antenna 2 dBi on airframe. 1.3 EUT User Control Requirement Power is removed at the aircraft operator’s position by the user either removing power from the EUT itself, pulling the circuit breaker or removing the vehicle power plug at the end of the power cable. This satisfies control requirements of FCC 87.143. 1.4 EUT Operation The EUT was exercised in a manner consistent with normal operations. To insure accurate measurement, the EUT was placed into higher than normal duty cycle modes. 1.5 Modifications to EUT Transmitter output matching network components were adjusted to better suppress harmonic spurious emissions. 18474 Professional Testing (EMI) Inc.

uAvionix P200S 3.0 Conducted Output Power at Antenna Terminal 3.1 Test Procedure The output of the EUT was connected directly to an attenuator and then to the spectrum analyzer. A peak detector was used for the measurement. The transmitter was switched on, and the measurement receiver was tuned to the frequency of the transmitter under test. The loss of the attenuator was compensated by adding an offset to the analyzer amplitude. Power was measured directly with the spectrum analyzer using a resolution bandwidth greater than the occupied bandwidth of the transmitter. 3.2 Test Criteria Table 3.2.1 Authorized Power, 87.131 (Radionavigation Unspecified), 2.1046 Minimum 125 Watts per RTCA/DO‐181D 3.3 Test Results Table 3.3.1 Peak Power Measured In 10 MHz RBW, 50 MHz VBW Measured Power (peak) 53.6 dBm or 229 Watts Table 3.3.2 Calculated Duty Cycle and Average Power Measured Power (peak) 53.6 dBm or 229 Watts Transmit Times (µs) Per TSO‐C199: 100 Mode A/C, 19 Short Mode S, 10 Long Mode S, 1 Short Squitter, 3.7 Long Squitters Total Transmit Time 2011.584 µs Maximum Duty Cycle 0.2012 % Averaging Factor 10 log10 (0.002012%) = ‐27 dB Average Power Ppeak + Factoravg = 53.6 – 27 = 26.6 dBm or 457 mW The EUT satisfied the requirements.

uAvionix P200S 4.0 Occupied Bandwidth and Modulation Characteristics 4.1 Test Procedure The output of the EUT was connected directly to an attenuator and then to the spectrum analyzer. The spectrum analyzer was tuned to the frequency of the transceiver under test and the EUT activated in continuous transmit mode. Bandwidth is measured relative to the peak power measurement measured separately in full bandwidth. Modulation is a pulse train; to verify a time-domain capture of the pulse train was recorded and compared to expected timings. 4.2 Test Criteria Table 4.2.1 Authorized Bandwidth, 87.135; 87.137; 2.1049 14 MHz per 87.137 table; emission designator 14M0M1D 4.3 Test Results, Bandwidth Table 4.3.1 Bandwidth In 20 dB (1 MHz RBW 3 MHz VBW) Reference Power Level 53.6 dBm Measured 20 dB Bandwidth 8240 kHz Emission Designator 8M24M1D The EUT satisfied the requirements.

uAvionix P200S 5.0 Spurious Emissions at Antenna Terminals 5.1 Test Procedure The output of the EUT was connected directly to an attenuator and then to a spectrum analyzer. The transmitter was switched on, and the measurement receiver was swept with TILE V4 software up to the 10th harmonic. EUT could not operate in continuous transmit mode but was adjusted to a higher rate that the transmitter could sustain. Software was adjusted to maximize capture of emissions using maximum point capability (8192 points), running 50 sweeps of 500 ms each, and 20 sweep ranges dividing up 3 MHz to 11 GHz. 5.2 Test Criteria Table 5.2.1 Spurious Limit, FCC 87.139(a) Basis for limit calculations.

uAvionix P200S 6.0 Field Strength of Spurious Emissions 6.1 Test Procedure The EUT was placed on a non-conductive table 0.8 meters above the ground plane. The table was centered on a rotating turntable. Antennas were located from the EUT at distances of 10 meters for below 1 GHz and 3 meters for above 1 GHz. The EUT was placed into transmit mode with the antenna removed and a resistive terminator substituted. EUT duty cycle was raised to a safe maximum and the measurement software sweep count raised to capture the signals.

uAvionix P200S 7.0 Frequency Stability 7.1 Test Procedure The EUT was placed into a temperature chamber and connected by cable to a spectrum analyzer; attenuation added if needed. On reaching each set point temperature, the EUT was allowed to soak at least 20 minutes without power applied. After soak time was satisfied, the EUT is powered on in transmit mode and the frequency is observed until it became stable; then the measurement of frequency was taken. Operating voltage stability was also measured for selected extremes based on operating design. The EUT was operated in unmodulated mode. 7.2 Test Criteria Table 7.2.1 Frequency Stability Criteria, 87.133; 2.1055(a)(1) Parameter: Frequency Tolerance 1000 ppm or ±1,090,000 Hz for 1090 MHz Operating Frequency Table 7.2.2 Test Conditions, Temperatures ‐30 C to 50 C and by 10 C steps Table 7.2.3 Test Conditions, Voltage (From manufacturers specifications.)

uAvionix P200S Appendix: Policy, Rationale, and Evaluation of EMC Measurement Uncertainty All uncertainty calculations, estimates and expressions thereof shall be in accordance with NIST policy. Since PTI operates in accordance with NIST (NVLAP) Handbook 150-11: 2007, all instrumentation having an effect on the accuracy or validity of tests shall be periodically calibrated or verified traceable to national standards by a competent calibration laboratory. The certificates of calibration or verification on this instrumentation shall include estimates of uncertainty as required by NIST Handbook 150-11. 1. Rationale and Summary of Expanded Uncertainty. Each piece of instrumentation at PTI that is used in making measurements for determining conformance to a standard (or limit), shall be assessed to evaluate its contribution to the overall uncertainty of the measurement in which it is used. The assessment of each item will be based on either a type A evaluation or a type B evaluation. Most of the evaluations will be type B, since they will be based on the manufacturer’s statements or specifications of the calibration tolerances, or uncertainty will be stated along with a brief rationale for the type of evaluation and the resulting stated uncertainties. The individual uncertainties included in the combined standard uncertainty for a specific test result will depend on the configuration in which the item of instrumentation is used. The combination will always be based on the law of propagation of uncertainty. Any systematic effects will be accommodated by including their uncertainties, in the calculation of the combined standard uncertainty; except that if the direction and amount of the systematic effect cannot be determined and separated from its uncertainty, the whole effect will be treated as uncertainty and combined along with the other elements of the test setup. Type A evaluations of standard uncertainty will usually be based on calculating the standard deviation of the mean of a series of independent observations, but may be based on a least-squares curve fit or the analysis of variance for unusual situations. Type B evaluations of standard uncertainty will usually be based on manufacturer’s specifications, data provided in calibration reports, and experience. The type of probability distribution used (normal, rectangular, a priori, or u-shaped) will be stated for each Type B evaluation. In the evaluation of the uncertainty of each type of measurement, the uncertainty caused by the operator will be estimated. One notable operator contribution to measurement uncertainty is the manipulation of cables to maximize the measured values of radiated emissions. The operator contribution to measurement uncertainty is evaluated by having several operators independently repeat the same test. This results in a Type A evaluation of operator-contributed measurement uncertainty. A summary of the expanded uncertainties of PTI measurements is shown as Table 1. These are the worst- case uncertainties considering all operative influence factors. Table 1: Summary of Measurement Uncertainties for Site 45 Expanded Meas.
