1. DATA REUSE
   1.1.        INTRODUCTION
The 15.247 DTS antenna port test results for AF1 are represented by Bose device AI1 test
report R11043795-E2 (FCC ID: A94AI1, IC: 3232A-AI1). This report for FCC ID: A94AF1, IC:
3232A-AF1 contains conducted power measurements and full Radiated Emissions
measurements.

Bose takes full responsibility that the data as referenced in report R11043795-E2 (FCC ID:
A94AI1, IC: 3232A-AI1) represent compliance for this FCC ID.


   1.2.        DIFFERENCES
Bose devices AI1 and AF1 have identical RF circuit boards, BOM’s and antennas (right ear
bud); just the enclosures are different and AF1 contains a heart rate sensor that the AI1 does
not include (left ear bud). Therefore, AI1 antenna port test results are used in this report to
represent how AF1 operates from a conducted perspective. The exception to this is the
conducted power measurements made on AF1. Conducted power measurements were made
on AF1 to ensure that the output power is aligned between the AF1 and AI1 EUT’s.


   1.3.        TESTING PERFORMED
Testing performed under this Report (R11201672-E2) are Conducted Output power and
Radiated Emissions. All other data is referenced to R11043795-E2 (FCC ID: A94AI1, IC:
3232A-AI1).

   6.5.        WORST-CASE CONFIGURATION AND MODE

Radiated emissions were performed with the EUT set to transmit at the channel with the highest
output power as the worst-case scenario.

The fundamental of the EUT was investigated in three orthogonal orientations X,Y,Z, it was
determined that the X orientation was the worst-case orientation. Therefore, all final radiated
testing was performed with the EUT in X orientation.

TEST SETUP

The EUT is set up as a stand-alone device during radiated-emissions testing. For convenience,
the device is connected to a laptop PC via a USB cable to configure the device for test during
antenna-port measurements. Test software exercised the radio portion of the device.

8. ANTENNA PORT TEST RESULTS

Note - The antenna port test results for AF1 are represented by Bose device AI1 test report
R11043795-E2 (FCC ID: A94AI1 and IC: 3232A-AI1). Bose devices AI1 and AF1 have identical
circuit boards, BOM’s and antennas; just the enclosures are different. Therefore, AI1 antenna
port test results are used in this report to represent how AF1 operates from a conducted
perspective. The exception to this is the conducted power measurements made on AF1.
Conducted power measurements were made on AF1 to ensure that the output power is aligned
between the AF1 and AI1 EUT’s.

   8.2.        OUTPUT POWER
LIMITS

FCC §15.247 (b)

IC RSS-247 5.4

The maximum antenna gain is less than or equal to 6 dBi, therefore the limit is 30 dBm.



TEST PROCEDURE

The transmitter output was connected to a power meter equipped with a power sensor capable
of measuring peak power. The cable assembly insertion loss of 11.036 dB (including 10 dB pad
and 1.036 dB cable) was entered as an offset in the power meter to allow for direct reading of
power.

TEST PROCEDURE

The EUT is placed on a non-conducting table 80 cm above the ground plane for below 1GHz
measurements and 1.5 m above the ground plane for above 1GHz measurements. The antenna
to EUT distance is 3 meters.

For measurements below 1 GHz the resolution bandwidth is set to 120 kHz for peak detection
measurements or 120 kHz for quasi-peak detection measurements for the 30-1000 MHz range,
9 kHz for peak detection measurements or 9 kHz for quasi-peak detection measurements for
the 0.15-30 MHz range and 200 Hz for peak detection measurements or 200 Hz for quasi-peak
detection measurements for the 9 to 150 kHz range. Peak detection is used unless otherwise
noted as quasi-peak.

For peak measurements above 1 GHz, the resolution bandwidth is set to 1 MHz and the video
bandwidth is set to 3 MHz. For average measurements above 1GHz, the resolution bandwidth
and video bandwidth are set as described in ANSI C63.10:2013 for the applicable
measurement. For this evaluation, RMS Power Averaging was used and the resolution/video
bandwidth settings were 1MHz/3MHz.

The spectrum from 9 kHz to 26 GHz is investigated with the transmitter set to the lowest,
middle, and highest channels in each applicable band.

The frequency range of interest is monitored at a fixed antenna height and EUT azimuth. The
EUT is rotated through 360 degrees to maximize emissions received. The antenna is scanned
from 1 to 4 meters above the ground plane to further maximize the emission. Measurements are
made with the antenna polarized in both the vertical and the horizontal positions.

    9.3.              WORST-CASE BELOW 1 GHz


SPURIOUS EMISSIONS 9kHz-30 MHz (WORST-CASE CONFIGURATION)

Note: All measurements were made at a test distance of 3 m. The limits in the plots and tabular
data are the FCC/IC limits extrapolated from the specification distance (300 m from 9-490 kHz
and 30 m from 490 kHz – 30 MHz) to the measurement distance to clearly show the relative
levels of fundamental and spurious emissions and demonstrate compliance with the
requirement that the level of any spurious emissions be below the level of the intentionally
transmitted signal. The extrapolation factor for the limits were 40*Log (specification distance /
test distance).

The anechoic chamber has been properly calibrated so that the measurement results
correspond to what would be obtained from an open field sites.
