Section 3: Equipment under test (EUT) details Section 3: Equipment under test (EUT) details 3.1 Product details Product name JANUS™ Interior OBU Model number 801660A-TAB Model variants 801970A-TAB, 801990A-TAB, 802001A-TAB FCC ID number JQU801660A Class of product LMS 3.2 Product description 801660A-TAB: has no micro-controller or peripherals 801970A-TAB: has the micro-controller with LEDs and buzzer peripherals. The case is translucent 801990A-TAB: has no micro-controller or peripherals. Has a different configuration on protected bits in the ASIC 802001A-TAB: has the micro-controller with tamper-proof peripheral. The dual-lock attachments are replaced with stronger, permanent adhesive strips The EUT is a Transponder that operates within 902–928 MHz ISM band at frequency 915 ±0.6 MHz, which is mounted on a vehicle at a location that is visible to the Reader Antenna when the vehicle passes through the RF capture zone, which is dictated by the directional pattern of the Reader Antenna. This Transponder is designed for interior mounting in a passenger vehicle, specifically on the windshield near the top and near the vehicle centreline. The Transponder responds to and emits with horizontal polarization when correctly oriented for normal operation with the flat surface of the Transponder against the vehicle windshield. In this location the boresite will point towards the Reader antenna when the vehicle approaches the Reader antenna. Outside the RF Capture Zone of the Reader, the unit does not transmit but continuously receives. 3.3 Sample information Receipt date July 18, 2011 Nemko sample ID number 1, 2 3.4 EUT technical specifications Operating band 902–928 MHz Operating frequency 915 ±0.6 MHz Modulation type Fixed OOK, Manchester encoded 500 kbps Occupied bandwidth 6.22 MHz (99 % OBW) Emission designator 6M22P1D Antenna type Printed 0 dBi (−2.15 dBd) antenna Power source 3.6 VDC internal Lithium battery Report reference ID: 180888-1TRFWL Page 6 of 25

Section 3: Equipment under test (EUT) details 3.5 Operation of the EUT during testing The units are internally battery powered and are continuously in the Receive mode. They require an external RF trigger to stimulate a response. Each RF trigger will produce one burst of transmission from a unit. The trigger pulse can be generated by using a signal generator gated by a function generator, or by using a signal generator that has the internal pulse modulation function. 3.6 EUT setup diagram Signal generator EUT Spectrum analyzer Report reference ID: 180888-1TRFWL Page 7 of 25

Section 4: Engineering considerations Section 4: Engineering considerations 4.1 Modifications incorporated in the EUT There were no modifications performed to the EUT during this assessment 4.2 Deviations from laboratory tests procedures No deviations were made from laboratory test procedures 4.3 Technical judgment The EUT comes at 4 model variants (see section 3.2 for details). The most populated model (801970A-TAB) was deemed as a representative model and was used for all the tests. Additionally, one specially modified sample of the EUT with SMA connector instead of integral antenna was supplied for conducted measurements. Report reference ID: 180888-1TRFWL Page 8 of 25

Section 8: Testing data Test name: Clause 90.209 Occupied bandwidth Specification: FCC Part 90, Subpart I 8.2 Clause 90.209 Occupied bandwidth (a) Each authorization issued to a station licensed under this part will show an emission designator representing the class of emission authorized. The designator will be prefixed by a specified necessary bandwidth. This number does not necessarily indicate the bandwidth occupied by the emission at any instant. In those cases where §2.202 of this chapter does not provide a formula for the computation of necessary bandwidth, the occupied bandwidth, as defined in part 2 of this chapter, may be used in lieu of the necessary bandwidth. (b) The maximum authorized single channel bandwidth of emission corresponding to the type of emission specified in §90.207 is as follows: (1) For A1A or A1B emissions, the maximum authorized bandwidth is 0.25 kHz. The maximum authorized bandwidth for type A3E emission is 8 kHz. (2) For operations below 25 MHz utilizing J3E emission, the bandwidth occupied by the emission shall not exceed 3000 Hz. The assigned frequency will be specified in the authorization. The authorized carrier frequency will be 1400 Hz lower in frequency than the assigned frequency. Only upper sideband emission may be used. In the case of regularly available double sideband radiotelephone channels, an assigned frequency for J3E emissions is available either 1600 Hz below or 1400 Hz above the double sideband radiotelephone assigned frequency. (3) For all other types of emissions, the maximum authorized bandwidth shall not be more than that normally authorized for voice operations. (4) Where a frequency is assigned exclusively to a single licensee, more than a single emission may be used within the authorized bandwidth. In such cases, the frequency stability requirements of §90.213 must be met for each emission. (5) Unless specified elsewhere, channel spacings and bandwidths that will be authorized in the following frequency bands are given in the following table: Table 8.2-1: Occupied bandwidth requirements Frequency band Channel spacing Authorized bandwidth (MHz) (kHz) (kHz) Below 25* 25–50 20 20 72–76 20 20 150–174 7.5 **20/11.25/6 216–220**** 6.25 20/11.25/6 220–222 5 4 406–512* 6.25 **20/11.25/6 806–809/851–854 12.5 20 809–824/854–869 25 20 896–901/935–940 12.5 13.6 902–928*** 929–930 25 20 1427–1432**** 12.5 12.5 2450–2483.5* Above 2500* * Bandwidths for radiolocation stations in the 420–450 MHz band and for stations operating in bands subject to this footnote will be reviewed and authorized on a case-by-case basis. ** Operations using equipment designed to operate with a 25 kHz channel bandwidth will be authorized a 20 kHz bandwidth. Operations using equipment designed to operate with a 12.5 kHz channel bandwidth will be authorized a 11.25 kHz bandwidth.

All stations must operate on channels with a bandwidth of 12.5 kHz or less beginning January 1, 2013, unless the operations meet the efficiency standard of §90.203(j)(3). *** The maximum authorized bandwidth shall be 12 MHz for non-multilateration LMS operations in the band 909.75–921.75 MHz and 2 MHz in the band 902.00–904.00 MHz. The maximum authorized bandwidth for multilateration LMS operations shall be 5.75 MHz in the 904.00– 909.75 MHz band; 2 MHz in the 919.75–921.75 MHz band; 5.75 MHz in the 921.75–927.25 MHz band and its associated 927.25–927.50 MHz narrowband forward link; and 8.00 MHz if the 919.75–921.75 MHz and 921.75–927.25 MHz bands and their associated 927.25– 927.50 MHz and 927.50–927.75 MHz narrowband forward links are aggregated. ****See §90.259. 8.2.1 Test summary Test date: July 19, 2011 Test engineer: Andrey Adlberg Verdict: Pass Temperature: 22 °C Air pressure: 1003 mbar Relative humidity: 30 % 8.2.2 Special notes The RBW was set to ≥1 % of occupied bandwidth.

Section 8: Testing data Test name: Clause 90.353 LMS operations in the 902–928 MHz band Specification: FCC Part 90, Subpart M 8.6 Clause 90.353 LMS operations in the 902–928 MHz band LMS systems may be authorized within the 902–928 MHz band, subject to the conditions in this section. LMS licensees are required to maintain whatever records are necessary to demonstrate compliance with these provisions and must make these records available to the Commission upon request: (h) Non-multilateration stations are authorized to operate on a shared, non-exclusive basis in the 902–904 MHz and 909.75–921.75 MHz sub- bands. Non-multilateration systems and multilateration systems will share the 919.75–921.75 MHz band on a co-equal basis. Non- multilateration LMS systems may not provide non-vehicular location services. The maximum antenna height above ground for non- multilateration LMS systems is 15 meters. (i) Non-multilateration LMS licenses will be issued on a site-by-site basis, except that municipalities or other governmental operatives may file jointly for a non-multilateration license covering a given U.S. Department of Commerce Bureau of Economic Analysis Economic Area (EA). Such an application must identify all planned sites. After receiving the license, the non-multilateration EA licensee must notify the Commission if sites are deleted or if new sites are added, before those sites may be put into operation. 8.6.1 Test summary Test date: July 21, 2011 Test engineer: Andrey Adlberg Verdict: Pass 8.6.2 Special notes The EUT operates within 909.75–921.75 MHz band.
