3.2 Radiated Spurious Emission Measurement
3.2.1 Description of Radiated Spurious Emission
       The radiated spurious emission was measured by substitution method according to ANSI / TIA /
       EIA-603-C-2004. The power of any emission outside of the authorized operating frequency ranges
       must be attenuated below the transmitter power (P) by a factor of at least 43 + 10 log (P) dB. The
       spectrum is scanned from 30 MHz up to a frequency including its 10th harmonic.



3.2.2 Measuring Instruments
       The measuring equipment is listed in the section 4 of this test report.



3.2.3 Test Procedures
        1.    The EUT was placed on a rotatable wooden table with 0.8 meter above ground.
        2.    The EUT was set 3 meters from the receiving antenna, which was mounted on the antenna
              tower.
        3.    The table was rotated 360 degrees to determine the position of the highest spurious emission.
        4.    The height of the receiving antenna is varied between one meter and four meters to search the
              maximum spurious emission for both horizontal and vertical polarizations.
        5.    Make the measurement with the spectrum analyzer's RBW = 1MHz, VBW = 3MHz, taking the
              record of maximum spurious emission.
        6.    A horn antenna was substituted in place of the EUT and was driven by a signal generator.
        7.    Tune the output power of signal generator to the same emission level with EUT maximum
              spurious emission.
        8.    Taking the record of output power at antenna port.
        9.    Repeat step 7 to step 8 for another polarization.
        10.   The RF fundamental frequency should be excluded against the limit line in the operating
              frequency band.
              The limit line is derived from 43 + 10log(P)dB below the transmitter power P(Watts)
              = P(W)- [43 + 10log(P)] (dB)
              = [30 + 10log(P)] (dBm) - [43 + 10log(P)] (dB)
              = -13dBm.
        11.   EIRP (dBm) = S.G. Power – Tx Cable Loss + Tx Antenna Gain
        12.   ERP (dBm) = EIRP - 2.15
