3.0 DESCRIPTION OF TESTS 3.1 Evaluation Procedure The measurement procedure described in the American National Standard of Procedures for Compliance Testing of Unlicensed Wireless Devices (ANSI C63.10-2013) was used in the measurement of the EUT. Deviation from measurement procedure…………………………………………….....................................None 3.2 AC Line Conducted Emissions The line-conducted facility is located inside a 10'x16'x9' shielded enclosure. The shielded enclosure is manufactured by ETS Lindgren RF Enclosures. The shielding effectiveness of the shielded room is in accordance with MIL-Std-285 or NSA 65-5. A 1m x 1.5m wooden table 80cm high is placed 40cm away from the vertical wall and 80cm away from the sidewall of the shielded room. Two 10kHz-30MHz, 50/50H Line-Impedance Stabilization Networks (LISNs) are bonded to the shielded room floor. Power to the LISNs is filtered by external high-current high-insertion loss power line filters. The external power line filter is an ETS Lindgren Model LPRX- 4X30 (100dB Attenuation, 14kHz-18GHz) and the two EMI/RFI filters are ETS Lindgren Model LRW-2030-S1 (100dB Minimum Insertion Loss, 14kHz – 10GHz). These filters attenuate ambient signal noise from entering the measurement lines. These filters are also bonded to the shielded enclosure. The EUT is powered from one LISN and the support equipment is powered from the second LISN. If the EUT is a DC-powered device, power will be derived from the source power supply it normally will be powered from and this supply line(s) will be connected to the second LISN. All interconnecting cables more than 1 meter were shortened to a 1 meter length by non-inductive bundling (serpentine fashion) and draped over the back edge of the test table. All cables were at least 40cm above the horizontal reference groundplane. Power cables for support equipment were routed down to the second LISN while ensuring that that cables were not draped over the second LISN. Sufficient time for the EUT, support equipment, and test equipment was allowed in order for them to warm up to their normal operating condition. The RF output of the LISN was connected to the spectrum analyzer and exploratory measurements were made to determine the frequencies producing the maximum emission from the EUT. The spectrum was scanned from 150kHz to 30MHz with a spectrum analyzer. The detector function was set to peak mode for exploratory measurements while the bandwidth of the analyzer was set to 10kHz. The EUT, support equipment, and interconnecting cables were arranged and manipulated to maximize each emission. Once the worst case emissions have been identified, the one EUT cable configuration/arrangement and mode of operation that produced these emissions is used for final measurements on the same test site. The analyzer is set to CISPR quasi-peak and average detectors with a 9kHz resolution bandwidth for final measurements. Line conducted emissions test results are shown in Section 7.7. The EMI Receiver mode of the Agilent MXE was used to perform AC line conducted emissions testing.

3.3 Radiated Emissions The radiated test facilities consisted of an indoor 3 meter semi-anechoic chamber used for final measurements and exploratory measurements, when necessary. The measurement area is contained within the semi-anechoic chamber which is shielded from any ambient interference. The test site inside the chamber is a 6m x 5.2m elliptical, obstruction-free area in accordance with Figure 5.7 of Clause 5 in ANSI C63.4-2014. Absorbers are arranged on the floor between the turn table and the antenna mast in such a way so as to maximize the reduction of reflections for measurements above 1GHz. An 80cm tall test table made of Styrodur is placed on top of the turn table. For measurements above 1GHz, an additional Styrodur pedestal is placed on top of the test table to bring the total table height to 1.5m. For all measurements, the spectrum was scanned through all EUT azimuths and from 1 to 4 meter receive antenna height using a broadband antenna from 30MHz up to the upper frequency shown in 15.33 depending on the highest frequency generated or used in the device or on which the device operates or tunes. For frequencies above 1GHz, linearly polarized double ridge horn antennas were used. For frequencies below 30MHz, a calibrated loop antenna was used. When exploratory measurements were necessary, they were performed at 1 meter test distance inside the semi-anechoic chamber using broadband antennas, broadband amplifiers, and spectrum analyzers to determine the frequencies and modes producing the maximum emissions. Sufficient time for the EUT, support equipment, and test equipment was allowed in order for them to warm up to their normal operating condition. The test set-up was placed on top of the 1 x 1.5 meter table. The EUT, support equipment, and interconnecting cables were arranged and manipulated to maximize each emission. Appropriate precaution was taken to ensure that all emissions from the EUT were maximized and investigated. The system configuration, mode of operation, turntable azimuth, and receive antenna height was noted for each frequency found. Final measurements were made in the semi-anechoic chamber using calibrated, linearly polarized broadband and horn antennas. The test setup was configured to the setup that produced the worst case emissions. The spectrum analyzer was set to investigate all frequencies required for testing to compare the highest radiated disturbances with respect to the specified limits. The turntable containing the EUT was rotated through 360 degrees and the height of the receive antenna was varied 1 to 4 meters and stopped at the azimuth and height producing the maximum emission. Each emission was maximized by changing the orientation of the EUT through three orthogonal planes and changing the polarity of the receive antenna, whichever produced the worst-case emissions. All radiated measurements are performed in a chamber that meets the site requirements per ANSI C63.4-2014. Additionally, radiated emissions below 30MHz are also validated on an Open Area Test Site to assert correlation with the chamber measurements per the requirements of KDB 474788 D01. 3.4 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).

7.3 Duty Cycle Calculation §15.35(c) Per FCC Part 15.35(c), an average radiated field strength can be determined by applying a duty cycle correction factor to a measured peak radiated field strength level. The duty cycle correction factor is determined based on the worst case operation over a 100ms time period on any given channel. Two plots are included below to determine the appropriate duty cycle correction factor. In Plot 7-2 below, it is shown that the pulse width for one transmission burst of the ANT+ transmitter while operating in non-hopping mode is 258.0s. Plot 7-2.

7.4 Fundamental Field Strength Level Measurement §15.249(a)(e); RSS-210 (B.10) Measurement is made while the EUT is operating in non-hopping transmission mode. The field strengths shown below were measured using a spectrum analyzer. Peak field strength measurements are performed in the analyzers’ swept spectrum mode using a peak detector with RBW = 3MHz and VBW ≥ RBW. Average field strength data is determined by applying the duty cycle correction factor (DCCF) found in Section 7.3 to the measured peak field strength values. The maximum permissible average field strength level is 50mV/m (93.98dBV/m). The maximum permissible peak field strength level is 500mV/m (113.98 dBV/m). Corrected Ant.

The spectrum is measured from 9kHz to the 10th harmonic and the worst-case emissions are reported. There were no non-harmonic emissions detected whose levels were within 20dB of the applicable limits so only harmonic emissions data is shown in this section. 2. All emissions lying in restricted bands specified in §15.205 and Section 8.10 of RSS-Gen are below the limit shown in Table 7-5. Per 15.249(d) and RSS-210 (B.10), the radiated emissions limits from 15.209 and RSS- Gen Section 8.10 were used since they were less than the limit of 50dB of attenuation from the measured fundamental field strength level. 3. Peak measurements > 1GHz using RBW = 1MHz and VBW = 3MHz. 4. The antenna is manipulated through typical positions, polarity and length during the tests. The EUT is manipulated through three orthogonal planes. 5. This unit was tested with its standard battery. 6. The "-" shown in the following RSE tables are used to denote a noise floor measurement.

7.6 Radiated Restricted Band Edge Measurements §15.205 §15.209 §15.249 (d); RSS-210 (B.10), RSS-Gen (8.9) The radiated restricted band edge measurements are measured with an EMI test receiver connected to the receive antenna while the EUT is transmitting. Two different amplitude offsets were used depending on whether peak or average measurements were measured. The average measurements use a duty cycle correction factor (DCCF). The amplitude offset shown in the following plots for average measurements was calculated using the formula: Offset (dB) = (Antenna Factor + Cable Loss) – Preamplifier Gain + DCCF Worst Case Mode: ANT+ (non-hopping) Measurement Distance: 3 Meters Operating Frequency: 2480MHz Back Cover Standard Channel: 78 Plot 7-4.
