Appendix A
    Antenna Substitution Method of EIRP Measurement

             First, measure the field strength of the device in accordance with the procedure in Appendix B.
        Second, replace the device with an antenna and connect the antenna to the output of a signal generator.
        Set the signal generator to the same frequency as the device emission that is being measured. Adjust
        the height of receiving antenna to give the highest reading. Repeat with the substitution antenna in the
        vertical position. Bring the position back to the polarity and height that results in the highest field
        strength reading. Set the signal generator to a power that results in the same field strength reading as
        that of the device emission. The gain of the transmitting antenna, output power of the generator, and
        loss of the cable can then be used to determine the EIRP of the device.

                            Field Strength = ACF1 + Cable Loss1 + Ground Plane + DUT Output




             Field Strength = ACF1 + Cable Loss1 + Ground Plane + Cable Loss2 + Antenna2 Gain + RF Source which produces a level equivalent to DUT

Appendix B
    Field Strength Measurement Procedure

             This test measures the field strength of radiated emissions using a spectrum analyzer and a
        receiving antenna in accordance with ANSI C63.4-2003. During the test, the EUT is to be placed on a
        non-conducting support at 80 cm above the horizontal ground plane of the OATS. The horizontal
        distance between the antenna and the DUT is to be exactly 3 meters. Levels below 1 GHz are to be
        measured with the spectrum analyzer resolution bandwidth at 120 kHz and levels at or above 1 GHz
        are to be measured with the spectrum analyzer resolution bandwidth at 1 MHz.

        1) Monitor the frequency range of interest at a fixed antenna height and EUT azimuth.
        2) If appropriate, manipulate the system cables to produce the highest amplitude signal
        relative to the limit. Note the amplitude and frequency of the suspect signal.
        3) Rotate the EUT 360° to maximize the suspected highest amplitude signal. If the signal or
        another at a different frequency is observed to exceed the previously noted highest amplitude
        signal by 1 dB or more, go back to the azimuth and repeat step b). Otherwise, orient the EUT
        azimuth to repeat the highest amplitude observation and proceed.
        4) Move the antenna over its fully allowed range of travel to maximize the suspected highest
        amplitude signal. If the signal or another at a different frequency is observed to exceed the
        previously noted highest amplitude signal by 1 dB or more, return to step b) with the antenna
        fixed at this height. Otherwise, move the antenna to the height that repeats the highest
        amplitude observation and proceed.
        5) Change the polarity of the antenna and repeat step b), step c), and step d). Compare the
        resulting suspected highest amplitude signal with that found for the other polarity. Select and
        note the higher of the two signals. This signal is termed the highest observed signal with
        respect to the limit for this EUT operational mode.
