1.4. Statement of the measurement uncertainty
The data and results referenced in this document are true and accurate. The reader is cautioned that
there may be errors within the calibration limits of the equipment and facilities. The measurement
uncertainty was calculated for all measurements listed in this test report acc. to CISPR 16 - 4
“Specification for radio disturbance and immunity measuring apparatus and methods – Part 4:
Uncertainty in EMC Measurements“ and is documented in the Shenzhen CTL Testing Technology Co.,
Ltd. quality system acc. to DIN EN ISO/IEC 17025. Furthermore, component and process variability of
devices similar to that tested may result in additional deviation. The manufacturer has the sole
responsibility of continued compliance of the device.

Hereafter the best measurement capability for CTL laboratory is reported:

TEST CONFIGURATION




TEST PROCEDURE

1.     The equipment was set up as per the test configuration to simulate typical actual usage per the
       user’s manual. The EUT is a flood stand system; a wooden table with a height of 0.1 meters is
       used and is placed on the ground plane as per ANSI C63.10-2013.
2.     Support equipment, if needed, was placed as per ANSI C63.10-2013
3.     All I/O cables were positioned to simulate typical actual usage as per ANSI C63.10-2013
4.     If a EUT received DC power from the USB Port of Notebook PC, the PC’s adapter received
       AC120V/60Hz power through a Line Impedance Stabilization Network (LISN) which supplied
       power source and was grounded to the ground plane.
5.     All support equipments received AC power from a second LISN, if any.
6.     The EUT test program was started. Emissions were measured on each current carrying line of the
       EUT using a spectrum Analyzer / Receiver connected to the LISN powering the EUT. The LISN
       has two monitoring points: Line 1 (Hot Side) and Line 2 (Neutral Side). Two scans were taken:
       one with Line 1 connected to Analyzer / Receiver and Line 2 connected to a 50 ohm load; the
       second scan had Line 1 connected to a 50 ohm load and Line 2 connected to the Analyzer /
       Receiver.
7.     Analyzer / Receiver scanned from 150 KHz to 30MHz for emissions in each of the test modes.
8.     During the above scans, the emissions were maximized by cable manipulation.
TEST RESULTS
Not applicable for device which is battery supply.

                        (C) Radiated Emission Test Set-Up, Frequency above 1000MHz




Test Procedure

1.     Below 1GHz measurement the EUT is placed on a turntable which is 0.8m above ground plane,
       and above 1GHz measurement EUT was placed on a low permittivity and low loss tangent turn
       table which is 1.5m above ground plane.
2.     Maximum procedure was performed by raising the receiving antenna from 1m to 4m and rotating
       the turn table from 0℃ to 360℃ to acquire the highest emissions from EUT
3.     And also, each emission was to be maximized by changing the polarization of receiving antenna
       both horizontal and vertical.
4.     Repeat above procedures until all frequency measurements have been completed.

The 20dB bandwidth and 99% bandwidth is measured with a spectrum analyzer connected via a
receive antenna placed near the EUT while the EUT is operating in transmission mode.
The 20dB bandwidth is defined as the total spectrum the power of which is higher than peak power
minus 20dB.
The occupied bandwidth (OBW), that is the frequency bandwidth such that, below its lower and above
its upper frequency limits, the mean powers radiated are each equal to 0.5 percent of the total mean
power radiated by a given emission.

a) An intentional radiator shall be de-signed to ensure that no antenna other than that furnished by
   the responsible party shall be used with the device.
b) The manufacturer may design the unit so that a broken antenna can be replaced by the user, but
   the use of a standard antenna jack or electrical connector is prohibited.



Refer to statement below for compliance.
The manufacturer may design the unit so that the user can replace a broken antenna, but the use of a
standard antenna jack or electrical connector is prohibited. Further, this requirement does not apply to
intentional radiators that must be professionally installed.
