       Calculation of Field Strength of Tuning Pulses: [15.231(b)], 15.31(c)]

The tuning pulses are generated each time the VC4968 is activated.

The tuning pulse sequence is: During the first 100mSec of activation two pulses of a ‘coarse’
tune. During the second 100mSec of activation are nine pulses of a ‘fine’ tune. At
approximately 200mSec after activation the encoded transmission begins.

The signal levels of the tuning pulses were maximized by maximizing the signal levels of the
pulse modulated transmission. The antenna height and turntable azimuth for maximum emission
levels were adjusted while measuring the field strength of the pulse modulated transmissions.

A typical tuning pulse sequence is presented in this figure below.




To determine level of the tuning pulses for comparison to the limits, the following procedure was
used.

MEASUREMENT PROCEDURE:
1. The EUT was trained to each of the three test frequencies at 30% duty cycle of the 500Hz
   modulating pulse.
2. The HP8456A EMI Receiver was adjusted to a fundamental frequency and set at 0Hz span,
   with 1MHz IF Bandwidth.
3. The trigger level was adjusted to capture the pulses of interest.
4. The EUT was activated and a single trace recorded on the Receiver in order to capture the
   tuning pulses.
5. The captured trace was digitally stored. The stored data points (400 data points for a full
   screen trace) were then used in calculations to determine the levels of the pulses.

CALCULATION OF THE FIELD STRENGTH OF THE TUNING PULSES.[ 15.35(c) ]

Pursuant to 47 CFR 15.35(c), the field strength is determined by averaging over ONE complete
pulse train up to 100mSec, including blanking intervals.

1.               First was determined the number of data points captured which represented 100mSec span
                  of time. There are 400 data points stored for one complete trace. The scan rate of the
                  HP8546A receiver was set to capture the tuning pulses. This rate was either 200mSec or
                  250mSec sweep speed.

                            Therefore: Number of data points per 100mSec = 400 / 2 = 200 data points.
                                                                     or = 400 / 2.5 = 160 data points.

2.                 The AVERAGE field strength level within the 100mSec is then determined by dividing
                   SUM of the levels (uV/m) of all data points by the number of data points.

                                   Avg. F.I. = (1/160) *                                         (Leveln)uV/m
