6. DYNAMIC FREQUENCY SELECTION

   6.1.        OVERVIEW

       6.1.1. LIMITS


INDUSTRY CANADA

IC RSS-247 is closely harmonized with FCC Part 15 DFS rules. The deviations are as follows:

RSS-247 Issue 2

Note: For the band 5600–5650 MHz, no operation is permitted.

Until further notice, devices subject to this annex shall not be capable of transmitting in the band
5600–5650 MHz. This restriction is for the protection of Environment Canada weather radars
operating in this band.

UNLICENSED-NATIONAL INFORMATION INFRASTRUCTURE DEVICES OPERATING IN
THE 5250-5350 MHz AND 5470-5725 MHz BANDS INCORPORATING DYNAMIC

MHz channel blocks and a null frequency between the bonded 20 MHz channel blocks.

density requirement
Note 1: This is the level at the input of the receiver assuming a 0 dBi receive antenna
Note 2: Throughout these test procedures an additional 1 dB has been added to the amplitude
of the test transmission waveforms to account for variations in measurement equipment. This
will ensure that the test signal is at or above the detection threshold level to trigger a DFS
response.
Note 3: E.I.R.P. is based on the highest antenna gain. For MIMO devices refer to KDB
publication 662911 D01.

 Note 1: Channel Move Time and the Channel Closing Transmission Time should be
 performed with Radar Type 0. The measurement timing begins at the end of the Radar Type
 0 burst.
 Note 2: The Channel Closing Transmission Time is comprised of 200 milliseconds starting at
 the beginning of the Channel Move Time plus any additional intermittent control signals
 required to facilitate a Channel move (an aggregate of 60 milliseconds) during the remainder
 of the 10 second period. The aggregate duration of control signals will not count quiet periods
 in between transmissions.
 Note 3: During the U-NII Detection Bandwidth detection test, radar type 0 should be used.
 For each frequency step the minimum percentage of detection is 90 percent. Measurements
 are performed with no data traffic.

SYSTEM OVERVIEW

The short pulse and long pulse signal generating system utilizes the NTIA software. The Vector
Signal Generator has been validated by the NTIA. The hopping signal generating system
utilizes the CCS simulated hopping method and system, which has been validated by the DoD,
FCC and NTIA. The software selects waveform parameters from within the bounds of the signal
type on a random basis using uniform distribution.

The short pulse types 1, 2, 3 and 4, and the long pulse type 5 parameters are randomized at
run-time.

The hopping type 6 pulse parameters are fixed while the hopping sequence is based on the
August 2005 NTIA Hopping Frequency List. The initial starting point randomized at run-time and
each subsequent starting point is incremented by 475. Each frequency in the 100-length
segment is compared to the boundaries of the EUT Detection Bandwidth and the software
creates a hopping burst pattern in accordance with Section 7.4.1.3 Method #2 Simulated
Frequency Hopping Radar Waveform Generating Subsystem of KDB 905462 D02. The
frequency of the signal generator is incremented in 1 MHz steps from FL to FH for each
successive trial. This incremental sequence is repeated as required to generate a minimum of
30 total trials and to maintain a uniform frequency distribution over the entire Detection
Bandwidth.

The signal monitoring equipment consists of a spectrum analyzer. The aggregate ON time is
calculated by multiplying the number of bins above a threshold during a particular observation
period by the dwell time per bin, with the analyzer set to peak detection and max hold.


SYSTEM CALIBRATION

A 50-ohm load is connected in place of the spectrum analyzer, and the spectrum analyzer is
connected to a horn antenna via a coaxial cable, with the reference level offset set to (horn
antenna gain – coaxial cable loss). The signal generator is set to CW mode. The amplitude of
the signal generator is adjusted to yield a level of –64 dBm as measured on the spectrum
analyzer.

Without changing any of the instrument settings, the spectrum analyzer is reconnected to the
Common port of the Spectrum Analyzer Combiner/Divider. The Reference Level Offset of the
spectrum analyzer is adjusted so that the displayed amplitude of the signal is –64 dBm.

The spectrum analyzer displays the level of the signal generator as received at the antenna
ports of the Master Device. The interference detection threshold may be varied from the
calibrated value of –64 dBm and the spectrum analyzer will still indicate the level as received by
the Master Device.

ADJUSTMENT OF DISPLAYED TRAFFIC LEVEL

A link is established between the Master and Slave and the distance between the units is
adjusted as needed to provide a suitable received level at the Master and Slave devices. Traffic
that meets or exceed the minimum loading requirement is streamed from the Master device to
the Slave Device. The monitoring antenna is adjusted so that the WLAN traffic level, as
displayed on the spectrum analyzer, is at lower amplitude than the radar detection threshold.

The EUT operates over the 5250-5350 MHz and 5470-5725 MHz ranges.

The EUT is a Slave Device without Radar Detection.

The highest power level within these bands is 14.77 dBm EIRP in the 5250-5350 MHz band and
14.50 dBm EIRP in the 5470-5725 MHz band.

The highest gain antenna assembly utilized with the EUT has a gain of 0.94 dBi in the 5250-
5350 MHz band and 0.94 dBi in the 5470-5725 MHz band. The lowest gain antenna assembly
utilized with the EUT has a gain of -0.10 dBi in the 5250-5350 MHz band and -0.10 dBi in the
5470-5725 MHz band.

Two antennas are utilized to meet the diversity and MIMO operational requirements.

The rated output power of the Master unit is > 23dBm (EIRP). Therefore the required
interference threshold level is –64 dBm. After correction for procedural adjustments, the
required radiated threshold at the antenna port is –64 + 1 = -63 dBm.

The calibrated radiated DFS Detection Threshold level is set to –64 dBm. The tested level is
lower than the required level hence it provides a margin to the limit.

The EUT uses two transmitter/receiver chains, each connected to an antenna to perform
radiated tests.

WLAN traffic that meets or exceeds the minimum required loading was generated by
transferring a data stream from the Master Device to the Slave Device using 10 fping sessions.

TPC is not required since the maximum EIRP is less than 500 mW (27 dBm).

The EUT utilizes the 802.11a/n architecture. Two nominal channel bandwidths are
implemented: 20 MHz and 40 MHz.

The software installed in the EUT is Software is ‘XTR Software’ revision ‘v00.03.07.00’.

The software installed in the access point is ap3g2-k9w7-xx. 153-3.JAB version 15.3(3)JAB.


UNIFORM CHANNEL SPREADING

This function is not required per KDB 905462.

This requirement is not applicable to Slave Devices.

OVERVIEW OF MASTER DEVICE WITH RESPECT TO §15.407 (h) REQUIREMENTS

The Master Device is a Cisco Access Point, FCC ID: LDK102087. The minimum antenna gain
for the Master Device is 4 dBi.

The rated output power of the Master unit is > 23dBm (EIRP). Therefore the required
interference threshold level is –64 dBm. After correction for procedural adjustments, the
required radiated threshold at the antenna port is –64 + 1 = -63 dBm.

The calibrated radiated DFS Detection Threshold level is set to –64 dBm. The tested level is
lower than the required level hence it provides a margin to the limit.

RESULTS

These tests are not applicable.


       6.2.4. MOVE AND CLOSING TIME

REPORTING NOTES

The reference marker is set at the end of last radar pulse.

The delta marker is set at the end of the last WLAN transmission following the radar pulse. This
delta is the channel move time.

The aggregate channel closing transmission time is calculated as follows:

Aggregate Transmission Time =
(Number of analyzer bins showing transmission) * (dwell time per bin)

The observation period over which the aggregate time is calculated begins at (Reference
Marker + 200 msec) and ends no earlier than (Reference Marker + 10 sec).
