5.4     Test Procedure
A spectrum analyzer is used as a monitor verifies that the EUT status including Channel Closing Transmission
Time and Channel Move Time, and does not transmit on a Channel during the Non-Occupancy Period after the
diction and Channel move. It is also used to monitor EUT transmissions during the Channel Availability Check
Time.

6       TEST RESULT
6.1     Description of EUT
The EUT operates in 5250-5350 MHz and 5470-5725 MHz range.

The rated output power of master device is >23 dBm (EIRP), therefore the required interference threshold
level is -64 dBm, the required radiated threshold at antenna port is -64dBm.

Throughout these test procedures an additional 1 dB has been added to the amplitude of the test transmission
waveforms to account for variations in measurement equipment. This will ensure that the test signal is at or above
the detection threshold level to trigger a DFS response.


The calibrated radiated DFS detection threshold level is set to -64+1+(Master antenna gain:) =

Band 2 : -64+1.11+1= -61.89 dBm.
Band 3 : -64+1.61+1= -61.39 dBm


6.2     Channel Loading

System testing will be performed with channel-loading using means appropriate to the data types that are used
by the unlicensed device. The following requirements apply:
a) The data file must be of a type that is typical for the device (i.e., MPEG-2, MPEG-4, WAV, MP3, MP4, AVI,
etc.) and must generally be transmitting in a streaming mode.
b) Software to ping the client is permitted to simulate data transfer but must have random ping intervals.
c) Timing plots are required with calculations demonstrating a minimum channel loading of approximately 17%
or greater. For example, channel loading can be estimated by setting the spectrum analyzer for zero span and
approximate the Time On/ (Time On + Off Time). This can be done with any appropriate channel BW and
modulation type.
d) Unicast or Multicast protocols are preferable but other protocols may be used. The appropriate protocol used
must be described in the test procedures.


The sample is use method (C)

WLAN traffic is generated by streaming the video file TestFile.mpg, this file is used by IP and Frame based
systems for loading the test channel during the In-service compliance testing of the U-NII device. The file is
streamed from the Access Point to the Client in full motion video mode using the media player with the V2.61
Codec package.

7 Channel Move Time and Channel Closing Transmission Time
7.1     Test Procedure
Perform type 0 short pulse radar waveform. The aggregate channel closing transmission time is calculated as
follows:


Aggregate Transmission Time = N*Dwell Time


N is the number of spectrum analyzer bins showing a device transmission Dwell Time is the dwell time per bin
(i.e. Dwell Time = S/B, S is the sweep time and B is the number of bin, i.e. 10000)
