3. SYSTEM TEST CONFIGURATION
3.1 Justification

The system was configured for testing in a typical fashion (as a customer would normally use it).
And its antenna was permanently attached to the EUT with max length, 3”.
Testing was performed as EUT was continuously operated at the following frequency channels:
908.4 MHz.

5. RADIATED EMISSION DATA

5.1 Field Strength Calculation
The corrected field strength is automatically calculated by EMI Receiver using following:
                              FS = RA +AF + CF + AG

where FS: Corrected Field Strength in dBµV/m
      RA: Amplitude of EMI Receiver before correction in dBµV
      AF: Antenna Factor in dB/m
      CF: Cable Attenuation Factor in dB
      AG: Built-in Preamplifier Gain in dB (Stored in receiver as part of the calibration data)

5.2 Test Methods and Conditions

The initial step in collecting radiated data is a EMI Receiver scan of the measurement range below
30MHz using peak detector and 9KHz IF bandwidth / 30KHz video bandwidth. For the range
30MHz - 1GHz, 120KHz IF bandwidth / 120KHz video bandwidth are used. Both bandwidths are
1MHz for above 1GHz measurement. Up to 10th harmonics were investigated.

5.3 Test Data

The following data lists the significant emission frequencies, polarity and position, peak reading of
the EMI Receiver, the FCC limit, and the difference between the peak reading and the limit.
Explanation of the correction and calculation are given in section 5.1. Worst case was recorded in
which the AC/DC power was used.

(1) The limit for emissions within the 902-928MHz band is 50mV(94dB) per Sec. 15.249. The limit
for its harmonics is 500uV (54dB). Other spurious emissions shall be lower than either its
fundamental by 50dB or the limit defined in Sec. 15.209, whichever is higher.
(2) If each peak reading is less than the FCC average limit, it’ll be not necessary to show the
measured/ calculated average reading.
(3) Most low frequency emissions are from accessory, DC motor.

6. CONDUCTED EMISSIONS DATA

6.1 Test Methods and Conditions

The EUT exercise program was loaded during the conducted emission test. EMI Receiver was
scanned from 150KHz to 30MHz with maximum hold mode for maximum emission. The IF
Bandwidth is 9KHz. Recorded data was sent to the plotter to generate output in linear format. At
the input of the spectrum analyzer, a HP transient limiter is inserted for protective purpose. This
limiter has a 10 dB attenuation in the range of 150KHZ to 30MHZ. That factor was automatically
compensated by the receiver, so the readings are the corrected readings. The reference of the plots
is using FCC Part 15 & CISPR22 Class B limit given as following:

  Conducted Emission Technical Requirements

  150kHz –0.5MHz        79 (8912uV)       66 (1995uV)         66-56               56-46
  0.5MHz-30MHz          73 (4467uV)       60 (1000uV)         ---                 ---
  0.5MHz- 5MHz          ---               ---                 56                  46
  5MHz-30MHz            ---               ---                 60                  50

Emissions that have peak values close to ( or over) the specification limit (if any) are also measured
in the quasi-peak mode to determine the compliance.

6.3 Testing Data

The following plots show the neutral and line conducted emissions for the typical operation
condition. The conducted test data shows the worst case emissions still below the FCC Part
15/CISPR22 Class B limits.
