REPORT NO: 03T2271-1 DATE: October 14, 2003 FCC ID: GKRWM3BAB32 2. REQUIREMENTS FOR COMPLIANCE TESTING DEFINED BY THE FCC The US Federal Communications Commission has released the report and order “Guidelines for Evaluating the Environmental Effects of RF Radiation", ET Docket No. 93-62 in August 1996 [1]. The order requires routine SAR evaluation prior to equipment authorization of portable transmitter devices, including portable telephones. For consumer products, the applicable limit is 1.6 mW/g for an uncontrolled environment and 8.0 mW/g for an occupational/controlled environment as recommended by the ANSI/IEEE standard C95.1-1992 [6]. According to the Supplement C of OET Bulletin 65 “Evaluating Compliance with FCC Guide-lines for Human Exposure to Radio frequency Electromagnetic Fields", released on Jun 29, 2001 by the FCC, the device should be evaluated at maximum output power (radiated from the antenna) under “worst-case” conditions for normal or intended use, incorporating normal antenna operating positions, device peak performance frequencies and positions for maximum RF energy coupling. 3. DOSIMETRIC ASSESSMENT SYSTEM These measurements were performed with the automated near-field scanning system DASY4 from Schmid & Partner Engineering AG (SPEAG). The system is based on a high precision robot (working range greater than 0.9 m) which positions the probes with a positional repeatability of better than ± 0.02 mm. Special E- and H-field probes have been developed for measurements close to material discontinuity, the sensors of which are directly loaded with a Schottky diode and connected via highly resistive lines to the data acquisition unit. The SAR measurements were conducted with the dosimetric probe ES3DV2-SN: 3021 (manufactured by SPEAG), designed in the classical triangular configuration and optimized for dosimetric evaluation. The probe has been calibrated according to the procedure with accuracy of better than ±10%. The spherical isotropy was evaluated with the procedure and found to be better than ±0.25 dB. The phantom used was the SAM Twin Phantom as described in FCC supplement C, IEEE P1528 and EN50361.

REPORT NO: 03T2271-1 DATE: October 14, 2003 FCC ID: GKRWM3BAB32 3.2. SYSTEM COMPONENTS DASY4 Measurement Server The DASY4 measurement server is based on a PC/104 CPU board with a 166MHz low-power Pentium, 32MB chip disk and 64MB RAM. The necessary circuits for communication with either the DAE3 electronic box as well as the 16-bit AD-converter system for optical detection and digital I/O interface are contained on the DASY4 I/O-board, which is directly connected to the PC/104 bus of the CPU board. The measurement server performs all real-time data evaluation for field measurements and surface detection, controls robot movements and handles safety operation. The PC-operating system cannot interfere with these time critical processes. All connections are supervised by a watchdog, and disconnection of any of the cables to the measurement server will automatically disarm the robot and disable all program-controlled robot movements. Furthermore, the measurement server is equipped with two expansion slots which are reserved for future applications. Please note that the expansion slots do not have a standardized pinout and therefore only the expansion cards provided by SPEAG can be inserted. Expansion cards from any other supplier could seriously damage the measurement server. Calibration: No calibration required. Data Acquisition Electronics (DAE) The data acquisition electronics (DAE3) consists of a highly sensitive electrometer grade preamplifier with auto-zeroing, a channel and gain-switching multiplexer, a fast 16 bit AD converter and a command decoder and control logic unit. Transmission to the measurement server is accomplished through an optical downlink for data and status information as well as an optical uplink for commands and the clock. The mechanical probe mounting device includes two different sensor systems for frontal and sideways probe contacts. They are used for mechanical surface detection and probe collision detection. The input impedance of the DAE3 box is 200MOhm; the inputs are symmetrical and floating. Common mode rejection is above 80 dB.

REPORT NO: 03T2271-1 DATE: October 14, 2003 FCC ID: GKRWM3BAB32 4. EVALUATION PROCEDURES DATA EVALUATION The DASY4 post processing software (SEMCAD) automatically executes the following procedures to calculate the field units from the microvolt readings at the probe connector. The parameters used in the evaluation are stored in the configuration modules of the software: Probe parameters: - Sensitivity Normi , ai0 , ai1 , ai2 - Conversion factor ConvF i - Diode compression point dcp i Device parameters: - Frequency f - Crest factor cf Media parameters: - Conductivity σ - Density r These parameters must be set correctly in the software. They can be found in the component documents or be imported into the software from the configuration files issued for the DASY components. In the direct measuring mode of the multi-meter option, the parameters of the actual system setup are used. In the scan visualization and export modes, the parameters stored in the corresponding document files are used. The first step of the evaluation is a linearization of the filtered input signal to account for the compression characteristics of the detector diode. The compensation depends on the input signal, the diode type and the DC-transmission factor from the diode to the evaluation electronics. If the exciting field is pulsed, the crest factor of the signal must be known to correctly compensate for peak power. The formula for each channel can be given as: 2 cf V i = U i + U i ⋅ dcp i with Vi = Compensated signal of channel i (i = x, y, z) Ui = Input signal of channel i (i = x, y, z) cf = Crest factor of exciting field (DASY parameter) dcp i = Diode compression point (DASY parameter) From the compensated input signals the primary field data for each channel can be evaluated: E-field probes: V E = i • ConvF i Norm i 2 H-field probes: a +a f +a f i 10 i11 i 12 H i = Vi ⋅ f with Vi = Compensated signal of channel i (i = x, y, z) Norm i = Sensor sensitivity of channel i (i = x, y, z) 2 µ V/(V/m) for E0field Probes ConvF = Sensitivity enhancement in solution aij = Sensor sensitivity factors for H-field probes f = Carrier frequency (GHz) Ei = Electric field strength of channel i in V/m Hi = Magnetic field strength of channel i in A/m COMPLIANCE CERTIFICATION SERVICES Page: 9 of 25 This report shall not be reproduced except in full, without the written approval of CCS.

REPORT NO: 03T2271-1 DATE: October 14, 2003 FCC ID: GKRWM3BAB32 SAR MEASUREMENT PROCEDURES The procedure for assessing the peak spatial-average SAR value consists of the following steps: • Power Reference Measurement The reference and drift jobs are useful jobs for monitoring the power drift of the device under test in the batch process. Both jobs measure the field at a specified reference position, at a selectable distance from the phantom surface. The reference position can be either the selected section’s grid reference point or a user point in this section. The reference job projects the selected point onto the phantom surface, orients the probe perpendicularly to the surface, and approaches the surface using the selected detection method. • Area Scan The area scan is used as a fast scan in two dimensions to find the area of high field values, before doing a finer measurement around the hot spot. The sophisticated interpolation routines implemented in DASY4 software can find the maximum locations even in relatively coarse grids. The scan area is defined by an editable grid. This grid is anchored at the grid reference point of the selected section in the phantom. When the area scan’s property sheet is brought-up, grid was at to 10 mm by 10 mm and can be edited by a user. • Zoom Scan Zoom scans are used to assess the peak spatial SAR values within a cubic averaging volume containing 1 g and 10 g of simulated tissue. The default zoom scan measures 7 x 7 x 8 points within a cube whose base faces are centered around the maximum found in a preceding area scan job within the same procedure. If the preceding Area Scan job indicates more then one maximum, the number of Zoom Scans has to be enlarged accordingly (The default number inserted is 1). • Power Drift measurement The drift job measures the field at the same location as the most recent reference job within the same procedure, and with the same settings. The drift measurement gives the field difference in dB from the reading conducted within the last reference measurement. Several drift measurements are possible for one reference measurement. This allows a user to monitor the power drift of the device under test within a batch process. In the properties of the Drift job, the user can specify a limit for the drift and have DASY4 software stop the measurements if this limit is exceeded. • Z-Scan The Z Scan job measures points along a vertical straight line. The line runs along the Z-axis of a one- dimensional grid. A user can anchor the grid to the current probe location. As with any other grids, the local Z-axis of the anchor location establishes the Z-axis of the grid.

REPORT NO: 03T2271-1 DATE: October 14, 2003 FCC ID: GKRWM3BAB32 7.2. TEST LIQUID CONFIRMATION SIMULATING LIQUIDS PARAMETER CHECK The simulating liquids should be checked at the beginning of a series of SAR measurements to determine of the dielectric parameters are within the tolerances of the specified target values The relative permittivity and conductivity of the tissue material should be within ± 5% of the values given in the table below. 5% may not be easily achieved at certain frequencies. Under such circumstances, 10% tolerance may be used until more precise tissue recipes are available TISSUE SIMULATING LIQUIDS In the current guidelines and draft standards for compliance testing of mobile phones (e.., IEEE P1528, OET 65 Supplement C), the dielectric parameters suggested for head and body tissue simulating liquid are given only at 3.0 GHz and 5.8 GHz. As an intermediate solution, dielectric parameters for the frequencies between 5 to 5.8 GHz were obtained using linear interpolation (see table below). SPEAG has developed suitable head and body tissue simulating liquids consisting of the following ingredients: de-ionized water, salt and a special composition including mineral oil and an emulgators. Dielectric parameters of these liquids were measured suing a HP 8570C Dielectric Probe Kit in conjunction with HP 8753ES Network Analyzer (30 kHz – 6G Hz).

REPORT NO: 03T2271-1 DATE: October 14, 2003 FCC ID: GKRWM3BAB32 7.3. EUT TUNE-UP PROCEDURES The following procedures had been used to prepare the EUT for the SAR test. o The client supplied a special driving program (CRTU v1.2.0.3000) to program the EUT to continually transmit the specified maximum power. And also to change the channel frequency. Power control: EERPROM DEFAULT = 0 TPC = 0 TDA = 226 TXFILTER = 38 DSP = 88 (5180 MHz and 5260 MHz) = 103 (5320 MHz) o The conducted power was measured at the high, middle and low channel frequency before and after the SAR measurement.
