A.     INTRODUCTION

     The  following  data are submitted in connection with  this
request for Type Acceptance of the GMT—20 transmitter in accord—
ance with Part 2, Subpart J of the FCC Rules.

      The   GMT—20 is a 20 watt transmitter that can generate            both
CW and GSM modulated test signals in the broadband PCS bands.              It
is   used to establish signal propagation modeling from             potential
base station sites and refine calculated coverage predictions.

B.      GENERAL INFORMATION REQUIRED FOR TYPE ACCEPTANCE                 (cont‘d)

                   k.       A description of circuits and devices employed for
                            suppression of spurious radiation in Appendix 8.

        5.         Data for 2.985 through 2.997 follow this section.


c.      RF POWER OUTPUT (Paragraph 2.985(a) of the Rules)

        RF power output was measured with a HP 432A/HP478A RF                   power
meter        and        a   Narda 765—20 attenuator as a 50     ohm   dummy     load.
Maximum power measured was 20 watts;                minimum power was 2 milli—
watts.  (The transmitter was tuned by the factory according to                       the
procedure of Exhibit 4.)


D.   MODULATION CHARACTERISTICS

     The GMT—20 transmitter modulation linearity was tested under
GSM formats.

     GSM           signal     source was an Tektronix   model     2021    Arbitrary
Waveform Generator              (AWG)

     Modulation  consisted  of   a  pseudo—random  bit   stream at
270.833  kB/s that had a length of 2047 bits, using    800  samples
with a sample rate of 2.167 MHz.   Symbol rate was > 50 kHz.

     Based on Para.              24.238, measured emission bandwidth at 26          dB
points was 300 kHz.

E.    SPURIOUS EMISSIONS AT THE ANTENNA TERMINALS
      (Paragraph 2.991 of the Rules)

      The GMT—20 transmitter was tested for spurious emissions            at
the   antenna terminals while the equipment was modulated          with    a
GSM signal previously described.

      Measurements      were made with Tektronix 494P spectrum        analy—
zer   coupled to the transmitter output terminal through a  Narda
765~20 power attenuator and general radio 874—GAL variable atten—
uator.    A notch filter was used to attenuate the carrier.

      During  the tests, the transmitter was terminated in the            50
ohm   attenuator, do supply was 117 volts throughout the tests.

     Spurious emissions were measured at 2 mW and 20 watts output
throughout  the RF spectrum from 10 to the tenth harmonic of  the
carrier.

     Any emissions that were between the required attenuation and
the noise floor of the spectrum analyzer were recorded.  Data are
shown in Table 1.

G.       FIELD STRENGTH MEASUREMENTS OF SPURIOUS RADIATION

        Field intensity measurements of radiated spurious                   emissions
from     the GMT—20 were made with a Tektronix 494P spectrum                   ana—
lyzer     using    Singer DM—105A calibrated dipole antennas                below      1
GHz,    and EMCO   3115 or       3116 horn antennas over 1       GHz.

     The transmitter and dummy load were located in an open field 3
meters from the test antenna.  Supply voltage was a power  supply
with a terminal voltage under load of 117 Vac.

     Output power was 20 watts at the 1850.00 MHz operating  fre—
quency.   The  transmitter  and test antennas  were  arranged to
maximize     pickup.        Both vertical and           horizontal   test   antennae
polarization were employed.

        Reference level for the spurious radiations was taken as                      an
ideal dipole excited by 20 watts, the output power of the                     trans—
mitter according to the following relationship:*

                       Eo    =      (49.294)‘"2
                                      R

where                  Eo=         electric—field intensity in volts/meter

                       Pp =        transmitter power in watts

                       Ro=         distance in meters


for this case          Eo   =      (49.2320)1/2          =   10.5 V/m
                                          3

Since the spectrum analyzer is calibrated in decibels above one
milliwatt (dBm)}, a conversion, for convenience, was made from dBu
to dBn.

         Since 1 uV/m             —107 dBm,        the reference becomes

H.   FREQUENCY STABILITY
     (Paragraph 2.995(a)(2)    and 90.213 of the Rules)

     Measurement     of frequency stability       versus    temperature       was
made  at temperatures from —30°C to +50°C.  At each  temperature,
the unit was exposed to test chamber ambient a minimum of 60  ni—
nutes after indicated chamber temperature ambient had stabilized
to within +2° of the desired test temperature. Following the 1
hour soak at each temperature,    the unit was turned on,             keyed   and
frequency  measured  within  2  minutes.            Test  temperature   was
sequenced in the order shown in Table 3,          starting with —30°cC.

     A Thermotron S1.2 temperature chamber was used.  Temperature
was  monitored with a   Keithley 871  digital  thermometer.   The
transmitter output stage was terminated in a dummy load.  Primary
supply was 117 Vac.     Frequency was measured with a Textronix 494P
spectrum  analyzer connected to the transmitter through  a                 power
attenuator.   Measurements were made at 1850.000 MHz.   No                 tran—
sient keying effects were observed.
