3.0           DESCRIPTION OF TESTS

 3.1          Evaluation Procedure
 The measurement procedures described in KDB 905462 D02 v02 were used in the measurement of the EUT.
 Radiated test methodology was used for the DFS evaluation procedure of the EUT. No deviations to the test
 procedure and test methods occurred during the evaluation of the EUT.

 Deviation from measurement procedure……………………………………...……………..........................None

 3.2          Environmental Conditions
 The temperature is controlled within range of 15oC to 35oC. The relative humidity is controlled within range of 10%
 to 75%. The atmospheric pressure is monitored within the range 86-106kPa (860-1060mbar).

4.0           ANTENNA REQUIREMENTS

 Excerpt from §15.203 of the FCC Rules/Regulations:
 “An intentional radiator antenna shall be designed to ensure that no antenna other than that furnished by the
 responsible party can be used with the device. The use of a permanently attached antenna or of an antenna that
 uses a unique coupling to the intentional radiator shall be considered sufficient to comply with the provisions of this
 section.”

      •   The antennas of the EUT are permanently attached.

      •   There are no provisions for connection to an external antenna.

 Conclusion:
 The EUT complies with the requirement of §15.203.

5.0           MEASUREMENT UNCERTAINTY


 The measurement uncertainties shown below were calculated in accordance with the requirements of
 ANSI C63.10-2013. All measurement uncertainty values are shown with a coverage factor of k = 2 to indicate a
 95% level of confidence. The measurement uncertainty shown below meets or exceeds the UCISPR measurement
 uncertainty values specified in CISPR 16-4-2 and, thus, can be compared directly to specified limits to determine
 compliance.

Requirements

Per KDB 905462 D02 v02 the following are the requirements for Client Devices:

a) A Client Device will not transmit before having received appropriate control signals from a Master Device.
b) A Client Device will stop all its transmissions whenever instructed by a Master Device to which it is associated
   and will meet the Channel Move Time and Channel Closing Transmission Time requirements. The Client Device
   will not resume any transmissions until it has again received control signals from a Master Device.
c) If a Client Device is performing In-Service Monitoring and detects a Radar Waveform above the DFS Detection
    Threshold, it will inform the Master Device. This is equivalent to the Master Device detecting the Radar
    Waveform and d) through f) of section 5.1.1 apply.
d) Irrespective of Client Device or Master Device detection the Channel Move Time and Channel Closing
   Transmission Time requirements remain the same.


Channel Move Time and Channel Closing Transmission Time requirements are listed in the following table.

Parameter                                                                                                            Value

Non-occupancy period                                                                                                 Minimum 30 minutes

Channel Availability Check Time                                                                                      60 seconds

                                                                                                                     10 seconds
Channel Move Time
                                                                         See Note 1.
Channel Closing Transmission Time                                        200 milliseconds + an aggregate of 60
                                                                         milliseconds over remaining 10 second
                                                                         period.
                                                                         See Note 1 and 2.
                                                                         Minimum 100% of the U- NII 99%
U-NII Detection Bandwidth                                                transmission power bandwidth. See
                                                                         Note 3.
Note 1: The instant that the Channel Move Time and the Channel Closing Transmission Time begins is
as follows:
• For the Short Pulse Radar Test Signals this instant is the end of the Burst.
• For the Frequency Hopping radar Test Signal, this instant is the end of the last radar
Burst generated.
• For the Long Pulse Radar Test Signal this instant is the end of the 12 second period
defining the Radar Waveform.
Note 2: The Channel Closing Transmission Time is comprised of 200 milliseconds starting at
the beginning of the Channel Move Time plus any additional intermittent control signals required
to facilitate a Channel move (an aggregate of 60 milliseconds) during the remainder of the 10
second period. The aggregate duration of control signals will not count quiet periods in between
transmissions.
Note 3: During the U-NII Detection Bandwidth detection test, radar type 0 is used and for each
frequency step the minimum percentage of detection is 90 percent. Measurements are performed
with no data traffic.

      Note 1: This is the level at the input of the receiver assuming a 0 dBi receive antenna.

      Note 2: 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.

      Note 3: For this test, the radiated output power of the Master Unit is greater than 23 dBm. Hence, DFS
      Detection Threshold Value was set to -64dBm.

7.3          Parameters of DFS Test Signals
As the EUT is a Client Device with no Radar Detection only one type radar pulse is required for the testing. Radar
Pulse type 0 was used in the evaluation of the Client device for the purpose of measuring the Channel Move Time
and the Channel Closing Transmission Time. Table 7-5 lists the parameters for the Short Pulse Radar Waveforms.
A plot of the Radar Pulse Type 0 used for testing is included in Section 7.5 of this report.

7.4          System Overview and Procedure
KDB 905462 D02 v02 describes a radiated test setup and a conducted test setup. The radiated test setup was

      1. The “Aeroflex PXI DFS Radar Simulator and Analyzer Test Suite” is setup to provide a simulated radar
         pulse at the frequency that the Master and Client are operating. A Type 0 radar pulse was used.
      2. The Client Device (EUT) is set up per the diagram in Figure 7-1 and communications between the Master
         device and the Client is established.
      3. The FCC video test file is streamed from the Master to the Client to properly load the network.
      4. The “Aeroflex PXI DFS Radar Simulator and Analyzer Test Suite” is set to record and display 12 seconds
         of time, starting from where the simulated radar is generated. This time domain plot captures any
         transmissions occurring up to and after 10 seconds. Aggregate time is computed to ensure compliance.
         (Note: the channel may be different since the Master and Client have changed channels due to the detection
         of the initial radar pulse.)
      5. After the initial radar burst the channel is monitored for 10 minutes to ensure no transmissions or beacons
         occur. A second monitoring setup is used to verify that the Master and Client have both moved to different
         channels.

7.5          System Calibration:
Radar pulses that are generated at the PXI RF Synthesizer’s Output Port was injected through the Horn antenna.
The Vivaldi antenna was connected by a low loss RF cable to the spectrum analyzer. The offset of the spectrum
analyzer was calculated based on the loss of the RF cable and gain of the horn antenna.

In the ‘PXI DFS Radar Simulator & Analyzer’ software, a Radar Type 0 was used to measure the threshold level as
described in Section 7.2 on the spectrum analyzer.

 Client is connected to Master (AP) via WLAN network and plays a video test file “6 ½ Magic Hours” in a Server

 the WLAN traffic level, as displayed on the spectrum analyzer, is at lower amplitude than the radar detection
 threshold.

9.2          Channel Loading
Channel Loading Notes:
Per KDB 905462 D02 v02, timing plots are required with calculations demonstrating a minimum channel loading of
approximately 17% or greater. For example, you can zero span the spectrum analyzer and approximate the
transmission time.
